Interactive TTS Demo

Generate speech with reference audio styling and emotion control

How to Use: Enter your text (up to 300 characters), optionally upload reference audio for voice cloning, and adjust the Exaggeration slider (0.25-2.0) to control emotional expressiveness from monotone to dramatic. Adjust CFG/Pace (0.2-1.0) for generation quality vs. speed. The demo runs on Hugging Face Spaces and may take a moment to initialize.

Demo Features

What you can do with this interactive Chatterbox demo

Voice Cloning from Reference Audio

Upload your own audio clip as reference, and the model will clone that voice style for your generated speech. No training required—just upload and generate instantly.

Adjustable Emotion Intensity

Control emotional expressiveness with the Exaggeration slider. Range from 0.25 (neutral, monotone) to 2.0 (highly expressive, dramatic). Fine-tune the emotional delivery for your content.

Real-Time Generation

Generate speech in real-time directly in your browser. Adjust parameters and hear results instantly without waiting for long processing times.

Configurable CFG/Pace

Balance generation quality and speed with the CFG/Pace parameter (0.2-1.0). Lower values produce faster results, higher values ensure better quality output.

Text Input (300 Characters)

Enter any text up to 300 characters and convert it to natural-sounding speech. Perfect for testing short phrases, sentences, or creating voice samples.

Zero-Shot Learning

No training, fine-tuning, or preparation required. Simply upload reference audio and start generating speech immediately with voice cloning capabilities built-in.

How to Use the Demo

Follow these simple steps to generate voice-cloned speech

1

Enter Your Text

Type or paste your text in the input field (maximum 300 characters). This is the content that will be converted to speech. The demo works best with complete sentences and natural punctuation.

2

Upload Reference Audio (Optional)

Click "Upload file" or "Record audio" to provide reference audio. The model will clone the voice characteristics from your reference. If you skip this step, the model will use its default voice. For best results, use clear audio with minimal background noise.

3

Adjust Emotion & Settings

Fine-tune the generation parameters to match your needs:

  • Exaggeration (0.25-2.0): Control emotional intensity. 0.5 is neutral, lower is monotone, higher is dramatic.
  • CFG/Pace (0.2-1.0): Balance quality and speed. Lower for faster generation, higher for better quality.
4

Generate & Download

Click the "Generate" button to create your speech audio. Wait for the processing to complete (usually takes a few seconds). Once generated, you can play the audio directly in the browser or download it for your projects. The output will match the voice characteristics of your reference audio with the emotional intensity you specified.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about using the Chatterbox demo

What kind of reference audio works best?

For best voice cloning results, use reference audio that is:

  • Clear and high-quality: Minimal background noise and good audio clarity
  • Single speaker: Only one person speaking in the reference
  • Natural speech: Normal speaking pace and intonation
  • At least a few seconds: Longer samples generally produce better results

How does the Exaggeration slider work?

The Exaggeration slider controls the emotional intensity and expressiveness of the generated speech:

  • 0.25-0.4: Monotone, flat delivery—good for technical content or neutral announcements
  • 0.5: Neutral, natural speech—default balanced setting
  • 0.6-1.0: Moderately expressive—suitable for most content
  • 1.0-2.0: Highly dramatic—for storytelling, entertainment, or character voices

Extreme values (very low or very high) may produce less stable results. Start with the default 0.5 and adjust based on your needs.

Can I use this for commercial projects?

Chatterbox is open-source software released under the MIT license, which allows commercial use. However:

  • Voice rights: Ensure you have proper rights to any reference audio used for voice cloning
  • Consent: Obtain consent from individuals whose voices you clone
  • Disclosure: Consider disclosing that content is AI-generated where appropriate

For production deployments, you can deploy the full Chatterbox model from GitHub and self-host it with full control over your infrastructure.

Is there a multilingual version?

Yes! This demo showcases the English version of Chatterbox. The full Chatterbox Multilingual model supports 23 languages including: Arabic, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Swahili, and Turkish.

To use the multilingual model with cross-language voice transfer and full language support, you can deploy it from the GitHub repository. It's open-source under MIT license and includes comprehensive documentation for deployment.

Why is generation slow sometimes?

Generation speed depends on several factors:

  • Server load: The demo runs on shared Hugging Face infrastructure, so heavy usage can slow it down
  • Text length: Longer text (up to 300 characters) takes more time to process
  • CFG/Pace setting: Higher values produce better quality but slower generation
  • Cold start: First generation may be slower if the model needs to initialize

For production use with guaranteed performance, consider deploying the model on your own infrastructure from GitHub.
