<h2>Abstract</h2>
<p style="text-align: left;">
We introduce MiniMax-Speech, an autoregressive Transformer-based Text-to-Speech (TTS) model that generates
high-quality
speech. A key innovation is our learnable speaker encoder, which extracts timbre features from a reference audio
without
requiring its transcription. This enables MiniMax-Speech to produce highly expressive speech with timbre
consistent with
the reference in a zero-shot manner, while also supporting one-shot voice cloning with exceptionally high
similarity to
the reference voice. In addition, the overall quality of the synthesized audio is enhanced through the proposed
Flow-VAE. Our model supports 32 languages and demonstrates excellent performance across multiple objective and
subjective evaluations metrics. Notably, it achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on objective voice cloning
metrics
(Word Error Rate and Speaker Similarity) and has secured the top position on the public TTS Arena leaderboard.
Another
key strength of MiniMax-Speech, granted by the robust and disentangled representations from the speaker encoder,
is its
extensibility without modifying the base model, enabling various applications such as: arbitrary voice emotion
control
via LoRA; text to voice (T2V) by synthesizing timbre features directly from text description; and professional
voice
cloning (PVC) by fine-tuning timbre features with additional data. Welcome to visit
<a href="https://www.minimax.io/audio">MiniMax Audio</a> and
explore our powerful TTS features.

That was back in the late 1970s. I remember when our <br>
village first got electricity - everyone was so excited. <br>
In theevenings, people would bring their stools and <br>
gather under the big banyan tree by the village committee <br>
office to watch movies projected on the wall. Even now, <br>
thinking back to those moments still fills me with warmth.
