About

What it is

Fish Speech is a voice synthesis toolkit that generates expressive, multilingual audio from text. It uses large language model architecture to support voice cloning, multi-speaker scenes, and natural-language control.

Who it suits

It is for developers and researchers who need voice production capabilities.

Where to use it

  • Command line interface
  • API server
  • WebUI

How to set it up

  1. Prepare your environment.
  2. Download the model weights.
  3. Use the CLI, API, or WebUI for inference.

Run these in a terminal:

# Copy the project to your computer
git clone https://github.com/fishaudio/fish-speech.git
# Go into its folder
cd fish-speech

How to use it

You send text to the model to generate audio. You can also provide a reference audio clip for voice cloning or use natural-language instructions to control emotion, prosody, and audio editing.

Example

You can generate a scene with multiple characters or use tags to adjust the emotion of the speech.

For newcomers and experts

For those new to the project, you can provide a script and describe the performance you want to hear. Experts can use the transformer-based architecture to perform complex tasks like multi-turn emotional revision and local audio infilling.

Good to know

  • Supports approximately one hundred languages.
  • Provides streaming audio output.
  • Released under the Fish Audio Community License.
  • S2-Pro weights are under the Fish Audio Research License.
