New **Italian** checkpoint for the catalog — the first one for `it` (piper-checkpoints
currently has no Italian entry).
- Language: it_IT (Italian, Italy)
- Quality: medium, 22,050 Hz
- Voice: **serena** — female, neutral Standard Italian (no regional accent), synthetic
- Training: **trained from scratch** (94 epochs, batch 10, ~27 h of audio)
- Dataset: [committa/serena-synthetic-it-27h](https://huggingface.co/datasets/committa/serena-synthetic-it-27h) (CC-BY-4.0)
- Recommended inference settings (embedded in the config):
noise_scale 0.6 / length_scale 1.0 / noise_w 0.4
Files follow the existing piper-checkpoints layout
(`<family>/<lang_code>/<dataset>/<quality>/`, cf. `en/en_US/lessac/medium/`):
`epoch=94-step=559930.ckpt`, `config.json`, `dataset.jsonl.gz`, `MODEL_CARD`,
`train.sh`, `.gitattributes`.
## Why this checkpoint
There is no official pretrained checkpoint for Italian (the catalog has no `it`
entry), and the only official Italian voices expose no trainable checkpoint
…
- uploading the model pretrained for farsi/persian language. (8ee081b9730a1c27a7bca6ae913b6450ec837f0c)
