Are there any free/open-source TTS options out there that are on the same level as Google Cloud’s? I tried a lot of free ones, but they are absolutely awful and still sound like my Amiga did 30 years ago. With LLMs being available as open source, I am hoping there’s also a good TTS offering I just haven’t found yet.
Yes, but if you compare it to https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech?hl=en (scroll down a bit and you can try it) and the Neural2 model, it sounds like shit. I mean, it’s great to see that there are efforts, but it just pales in comparison.
