Model overview

parler-tts is a lightweight text-to-speech (TTS) model developed by cjwbw, a creator at Replicate. It is trained on 10.5K hours of audio data and can generate high-quality, natural-sounding speech with controllable features like gender, background noise, speaking rate, pitch, and reverberation. parler-tts is related to models like voicecraft, whisper, and sabuhi-model, which also focus on speech-related tasks. Additionally, the parler_tts_mini_v0.1 model provides a lightweight version of the parler-tts system.

Model inputs and outputs
