Silencio-2: an 18M TTS with emotion and sound tags, ~20x realtime on CPU (open weights)
Read the original at www.reddit.com→I made this, so treat it as biased. It is free and open, with no paid tier or API behind it. Silencio-2 is a fine-tune of Kyutai's Pocket TTS 18M that follows tags written inside the text: What a long day. [sigh]...
