| # loudkit |
|
|
| Twenty-eight voices across ten languages, on two models: |
| [loudreader/loudr-1](https://huggingface.co/loudreader/loudr-1) and |
| [loudreader/loudr-1-turbo](https://huggingface.co/loudreader/loudr-1-turbo), |
| running the [loudkit](https://github.com/loudreader/loudkit) engine on ZeroGPU. |
|
|
| ## Two tabs |
|
|
| - **Voices.** Twenty-eight voices, each beside the reference recording it was |
| enrolled from, and each rendered on both models from the same passage at the |
| same seed. English first, with a dropdown for the other nine languages. The |
| samples were rendered ahead of time and ship in this repo, so playing them |
| uses no GPU. Under them is a box for your own text, up to 1,000 characters, |
| and one that renders the same words on both models side by side. |
| - **Clone.** A voice from about ten seconds of a recording, then speak with it |
| on either model. One profile serves both, which is what a portable voice |
| profile means. The microphone is the default path; an upload is gated on a |
| confirmation, and neither recording outlives the request. |
|
|
| ## What this demo is honest about |
|
|
| ZeroGPU bills GPU time to the visitor. Listening costs nothing, because the |
| fifty-six samples are files. Speaking and cloning spend the visitor's own daily |
| quota, which is why the text boxes are capped well below what the library takes. |
|
|
| Both models are pinned to an immutable Hub commit rather than to a branch, so |
| the algorithm ID the page prints belongs to the bytes it ran. |
|
|
| Output files carry |
| [unsigned loudkit provenance metadata](https://github.com/loudreader/loudkit/blob/main/docs/reference/provenance.md): |
| the algorithm ID, the recipe and the seed. |
|
|
| ## Running it locally instead |
|
|
| ```bash |
| pip install "loudkit[torch,audio,enroll,hub]" |
| ``` |
|
|
| ```python |
| import loudkit as lk |
| |
| engine = lk.load("loudreader/loudr-1", revision="v0.1.1") |
| voice = lk.voice("kathleen", repo="loudreader/loudr-1", revision="v0.1.1") |
| engine.synthesize("Hello from loudkit.", voice, seed=7).save("hello.wav") |
| ``` |
|
|
| Nothing is queued and nothing is metered. |
