WhisperSpeech is an open-source text-to-speech system created by “inverting” OpenAI’s Whisper, reusing its strengths as a semantic audio model to generate speech instead of only transcribing it. The project aims to be for speech what Stable Diffusion is for images: powerful, hackable, and safe for commercial use, with code under Apache-2.0/MIT and models trained only on properly licensed data. Its architecture follows a token-based, multi-stage pipeline inspired by AudioLM and SPEAR-TTS: Whisper is used to produce semantic tokens, EnCodec compresses the waveform into acoustic tokens, and Vocos reconstructs high-fidelity audio from those tokens. ...

...Instead of converting speech into discrete tokens, it uses an end-to-end diffusion-autoregressive architecture built on the MiniCPM-4 backbone, combining hierarchical language modeling, finite scalar quantization (FSQ), and local Diffusion Transformers. This design helps decouple semantic and acoustic information while preserving fine-grained prosody, leading to more stable and expressive generation than many discrete-token systems. Trained on a large 1.8-million-hour bilingual corpus, VoxCPM can infer appropriate speaking style from context, dynamically adjusting intonation, rhythm, and emotional tone. It supports zero-shot voice cloning from a short reference audio clip, capturing timbre, accent, and pacing to closely mimic a target speaker without per-speaker fine-tuning.

WavTokenizer is a state-of-the-art discrete acoustic codec designed specifically for audio language modeling, capable of compressing 24 kHz audio into just 40 or 75 tokens per second while preserving high perceptual quality. It is built to represent speech, music, and general audio with extremely low bitrate, making it ideal as a front-end for large audio language models like GPT-4o and similar architectures. The model uses a single-quantizer design together with temporal compression to...
