GPT-SoVITS: Voice Synthesis Using Short Samples

Translated

This is a text-to-speech tool that lets you have text read aloud in your own voice—all it takes is a sample of about 5 seconds.

3-Line Summary

1) It’s a text-to-speech (TTS) tool that reads text aloud in a specific voice using a voice sample of about 5 seconds. 2) On Windows, simply extract the installation package and double-click go-webui.bat. 3) I use it to read my own text aloud, and there’s a demo video in the README showing how to fine-tune the model with a small amount of data for a new speaker.

Points to Note

Use only your own voice or a voice for which you have obtained consent, and do not engage in misuse such as impersonating others or voice phishing. The online demo states that users are responsible for how they distribute the generated audio. The README for the training-purpose automatic speech recognition (ASR) tool only provides instructions for Chinese, English, and Japanese.
