# Maya 2 Native — multilingual streaming TTS

Demo of [maya-research/maya2-native](https://huggingface.co/maya-research/maya2-native):
a 2.5B-parameter text-to-speech model covering **12 Indic languages + English**
(Hindi, English, Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia,
Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu) with **zero-shot voice cloning** from a 3–10 s reference
clip. Apache-2.0. Output is 24 kHz mono audio.

- **Named voices**: 20 trained voices ship with the release — pick one from the
  dropdown, or leave "(none)" for the plain (unclaimed) voice.
- **Voice cloning**: upload a 3–10 s clip plus its exact transcript; the same
  speaker reads your text — including in a *different* language (cross-lingual
  cloning).
- **Text normalisation** (on by default): expands digits, currency, dates, URLs
  and ALL-CAPS names into spoken words in the target language.

This Space vendors the [maya3](https://github.com/MayaResearch/maya2-native)
inference engine (`maya3/`, `tts/`, `serve/`, `scripts/`, `configs/`) under its
Apache-2.0 license. Model weights (Mimi codec, ECAPA speaker encoder) are
downloaded from the Hugging Face cache on first use.

## Examples

The example rows are the showcase texts from the model card, one per supported
language, each paired with its native voice. The bundled
`samples/hi_ritvik.wav` is a reference clip from the model repository you can
use to try voice cloning (its transcript is in the model card).
