Step by step guide to convert text into high-quality audio, using an open source TTS model in front of the embrace: Including detailed audio file analysis and diagnostic tools in Python
In this tutorial, we show a complete end-to-end solution to convert text into audio using the open source text-to-speech (TTS) model available on the embrace surface. The tutorial takes advantage of the Coqui TTS library’s capabilities to enable you to process your input text by initializing the state-of-the-art TTS model (in our case, “TTS_Models/en/en/en/ljspeech/tacotron2-ddc”), and save the highest quality Wav aud audio audio audio file. Additionally, we integrate Python’s audio processing tools, including the Wave module and a context manager, to analyze key audio file properties such as duration, sample rate, sample width, and channel configuration. This step-by-step guide is designed to cater to beginners and advanced developers who want to learn how to generate speech from text and perform a basic diagnostic analysis of the output.
!pip install TTS
! PIP Install TTS Install Coqui TTS library, which enables you to convert text into high-quality audio with an open source text-to-speech model. This ensures that all the necessary dependencies are available in the Python environment, allowing you to quickly try out various TTS features.
from TTS.api import TTS
import contextlib
import wave
We import basic modules from the TTS API: Use the hug-face model and the built-in ContextLib and Wave modules to safely open and analyze WAV audio files.
def text_to_speech(text: str, output_path: str = "output.wav", use_gpu: bool = False):
"""
Converts input text to speech and saves the result to an audio file.
Parameters:
text (str): The text to convert.
output_path (str): Output WAV file path.
use_gpu (bool): Use GPU for inference if available.
"""
model_name = "tts_models/en/ljspeech/tacotron2-DDC"
tts = TTS(model_name=model_name, progress_bar=True, gpu=use_gpu)
tts.tts_to_file(text=text, file_path=output_path)
print(f"Audio file generated successfully: {output_path}")
The text_to_speech function accepts text strings, as well as optional output file paths and GPU usage flags, and synthesizes the provided text into a Wav Audio File using the COQUI TTS model (specified as “TTS_Models/en/en/ljspeech/tacotron2-ddc”). After successful conversion, it prints a confirmation message indicating where the audio file is saved.
def analyze_audio(file_path: str):
"""
Analyzes the WAV audio file and prints details about it.
Parameters:
file_path (str): The path to the WAV audio file.
"""
with contextlib.closing(wave.open(file_path, 'rb')) as wf:
frames = wf.getnframes()
rate = wf.getframerate()
duration = frames / float(rate)
sample_width = wf.getsampwidth()
channels = wf.getnchannels()
print("nAudio Analysis:")
print(f" - Duration : {duration:.2f} seconds")
print(f" - Frame Rate : {rate} frames per second")
print(f" - Sample Width : {sample_width} bytes")
print(f" - Channels : {channels}")
The Analyze_audio function uses Python’s Wave module to open a specified WAV file and extracts key audio parameters such as duration, frame rate, sample width, and channel count. It then prints these details in a neat format to help you verify and understand the technical characteristics of the synthetic audio output.
if __name__ == "__main__":
sample_text = (
"Marktechpost is an AI News Platform providing easy-to-consume, byte size updates in machine learning, deep learning, and data science research. Our vision is to showcase the hottest research trends in AI from around the world using our innovative method of search and discovery"
)
output_file = "output.wav"
text_to_speech(sample_text, output_path=output_file)
analyze_audio(output_file)
If __ -name__ == ” __ -main __”: When executed directly, the block serves as the entry point of the script. This section defines sample text describing the AI news platform. The text_to_speech function is called to merge this text into an audio file named “output.wav”, and finally, the Analyze_Audio function is called to print the detailed parameters of the audio.
Main function output
In summary, this implementation illustrates how to effectively use open source tts tools and libraries to convert text into audio while performing diagnostic analysis of the resulting audio files. By integrating the Embrace Face Model with Python’s powerful audio processing power through the Coqui TTS library, you’ll get a comprehensive workflow that effectively integrates voice and validates its quality and performance. Whether you’re building a conversation agent, automating voice responses or just exploring the nuances of voice synthesis, this tutorial lays a solid foundation that you can easily customize and scale as you want.
