A newer version of this voice is available: OpenVoiceOS/phoonnx_ar_miro_espeak_V2.

How to use

Install phoonnx and run:

import wave
from phoonnx.config import SynthesisConfig
from phoonnx.voice import TTSVoice

voice = TTSVoice.from_hf("OpenVoiceOS/phoonnx_ar_miro_espeak")

synthesis_config = SynthesisConfig(noise_scale=0.667, length_scale=1.0, noise_w_scale=0.8)

with wave.open("output.wav", "wb") as wav_file:
    voice.synthesize_wav("صباح الخير، كيف حالك؟", wav_file, synthesis_config)

You can also use this model in OVOS with ovos-tts-plugin-phoonnx:
