Swamiji as Maya's named custom voice {Swamiji} in English, Telugu and Kannada. Experiment exp2c; named best-multilingual-maya 2026-10-30 to 2026-10-31. On 2026-10-31 the best-* names moved to the newer picks (sw-voice/best-2-multilingual-maya, sw-voice/best-2-multilingual-vox) and this repo went back to its first name, then was named multilingual-maya-good (2026-10-31); the old names still redirect here. Preferred 3-1 blind over the reference-clip model sw-voice/maya2-native-swamiji-en-te-kn3x-sft-lr5e-6-3ep on five unseen Telugu answers, with the same accuracy.
