This FastPitch[1] model was trained on the HUI-Audio-Corpus-German[2] clean dataset using the Nemo Toolkit[3]. We selected 5 speakers who have the 5-largest amount of data and balanced training data across speakers (around 20 hours per speaker).

This a retrained model of: https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/teams/nemo/models/tts_de_fastpitch_multispeaker_5

How to Use:

Use with Nemo Toolkit version 1.14.0

  # Load spectrogram generator
  from nemo.collections.tts.models import FastPitchModel
  spec_generator = FastPitchModel.restore_from("path/to/model.nemo")
  
  # Load Vocoder
  from nemo.collections.tts.models import HifiGanModel
  model = HifiGanModel.from_pretrained(model_name="tts_de_hui_hifigan_ft_fastpitch_multispeaker_5")
  
  # Generate audio
  import torchaudio
  parsed = spec_generator.parse("")
  speaker_id = 0
  spectrogram = spec_generator.generate_spectrogram(tokens=parsed, speaker=speaker_id)
  audio = model.convert_spectrogram_to_audio(spec=spectrogram)
  
  # Save the audio to disk in a file called speech.wav
  torchaudio.save('german_speech.wav', audio.cpu(), 44100)
