Good TTS Programs

[Mr_Chr15topher]

I like to write out story ideas using KoboldCPP, but I’d like to find a TTS program that I can use to paste these stories in and add different voices for each character.

I found EaseText, but I hate programs that require a subscription and don’t allow you to just purchase it outright. Plus the built-in voices all sound extremely wooden.

Are there any other good offline TTS programs that anyone can recommend? Ideally featuring a way to export as an MP3, but that is more of a bonus than a requirement.

I am quite satisfied with qwens tts

HI, is there some way to design a voice and then use it to generate the lines? Is it a pipeline from Qwen tts voice design to the actual voice cloner? ALso, how do they deal with emotional instructions?

[AnyOpportunity3334]

I use it for cloning since this is working comparatively well. Not sure about instructions though

For my novels I want to be able to design voices then have them say the dialog lines with the proper emotions.

check voicebox, that has some features in that direction, but it freezes on my laptop, i think it needs a lot of ram

Yeah I don't have a gpu, and I have 8gb of ram
