WhisperSpeech2

An Open Source text-to-speech system built by inverting Whisper. This is a fork of WhisperSpeech optimized for inference.

Installation

pip install whisperspeech2

Note: You must also have PyTorch installed. Visit pytorch.org for installation instructions.

Quick Start

from whisperspeech2.pipeline import Pipeline

# Initialize the pipeline
pipe = Pipeline(s2a_ref='collabora/whisperspeech:s2a-q4-tiny-en+pl.model')

# Generate audio and save to file
pipe.generate_to_file('output.wav', "Hello, world!")

# Or get the audio tensor directly
audio = pipe.generate("Hello, world!")

Available Models

Model	Reference
Tiny	collabora/whisperspeech:s2a-q4-tiny-en+pl.model
Base	collabora/whisperspeech:s2a-q4-base-en+pl.model
Small	collabora/whisperspeech:s2a-q4-small-en+pl.model

Speaker Embedding (Optional)

To use custom speaker embeddings, install the optional dependency:

pip install whisperspeech2[speaker]

Then pass an audio file path to clone a voice:

pipe.generate_to_file('output.wav', "Hello!", speaker='reference.wav')
