We have made a number of promises we kept: - Model size reduced 2x; - New models are 10x faster (!); - We added flags to control stress; - Now the models can make proper pauses; - High quality voice added (and unlimited "random" voices); - All speakers squeezed into the same model; - Input length limitations lifted, now models can work with paragraphs of text; - Pauses, speed and pitch can be controlled via SSML; - Sampling rates of 8, 24 or 48 kHz are supported; - Models are much more stable — they do not omit words anymore; Next steps: - Release models for the CIS languages, English, some European languages and Hindic languages - Even further 2-4x speed up - Updated stress model - Phonemes support and and built-in voice transfer Links: - GitHub - github.com/snakers…o-models - Colab - colab.research.google.com/github/…ts.ipynb - Russian article - https://habr.com/ru/post/660565/ - English article - https://habr.com/ru/post/660571/
