Usage Instructions

Method 0: HuggingFace space (https://huggingface.co/spaces/jpgallegoar/Spanish-F5)

Method 1: Manual Model Replacement

  1. Run the F5-TTS Application: Start the F5-TTS application and observe the terminal for output indicating the model file path. It should appear similar to:

    model : C:\Users\thega\.cache\huggingface\hub\models--SWivid--F5-TTS\snapshots\995ff41929c08ff968786b448a384330438b5cb6\F5TTS_Base\model_1200000.safetensors
    
  2. Replace the Model File:

    • Navigate to the displayed file location.
    • Rename the existing model file to model_1200000.safetensors.bak.
    • Download model_1200000.safetensors from this repository and save it to the same location.
  3. Restart the Application: Relaunch the F5-TTS application to load the updated model.

Alternative Methods

  • GitHub Repository: Clone the Spanish-F5 repository and follow the provided installation instructions.
  • Google Colab: Use the model via Google Colab.
    • Runtime -> Change Runtime Type -> T4 GPU
    • Runtime -> Run all
    • Click on the link shown in "Running on public URL: https://link.gradio.live" when it loads
  • Jupyter Notebook: Run the model through the Spanish_F5.ipynb notebook.

Contributions and Recommendations

This model may benefit from further fine-tuning to enhance its performance across different Spanish dialects. Contributions from the community are encouraged. For optimal output quality, preprocess the reference audio by removing background noise, balancing audio levels, and enhancing clarity.
