MOSS-TTS-v1.5

MOSS-TTS-v1.5 is continued from MOSS-TTS 1.0. It preserves the main 1.0 capabilities, including zero-shot voice cloning, long-form speech generation, token-level duration control, Pinyin/IPA pronunciation control, multilingual synthesis, and code-switching. For the full 1.0 feature walkthrough, input schema, decoding hyperparameters, and evaluation tables, please refer to the MOSS-TTS 1.0 README.

Compared with MOSS-TTS 1.0, v1.5 focuses on the following improvements:

• Stronger multilingual synthesis with language tags: when the language field is omitted, v1.5 may improve some languages and regress slightly on others compared with 1.0. When the language is specified, v1.5 is stronger than 1.0 on almost all supported languages. Set the tag when building the user message, for example processor.build_user_message(text=text_fr, language="French").
• More stable voice cloning: v1.5 improves speaker similarity and reduces cloning variance, making repeated generations more consistent.
• Better long-reference, short-text cloning: v1.5 handles scenarios where the reference audio is much longer than the target text more reliably than 1.0.
• More stable punctuation-following prosody: v1.5 follows punctuation-driven pauses more closely, especially in long sentences.
• Explicit pause control: v1.5 supports inline pause markers such as "[pause 3.2s]". For example, 我今天学习了一首中国的古诗，它的名字是[pause 3.2s]静夜思！ inserts an explicit 3.2s pause before 静夜思.

Supported Languages

MOSS-TTS-v1.5 currently supports 31 languages. It keeps the 20 languages supported by MOSS-TTS 1.0 and extends multilingual continued training to additional languages including Cantonese, Dutch, Finnish, Hindi, Macedonian, Malay, Romanian, Swahili, Tagalog, Thai, and Vietnamese.

Quick Start

Environment Setup

We recommend a clean, isolated Python environment with Transformers 5.0.0 to avoid dependency conflicts.

conda create -n moss-tts python=3.12 -y
conda activate moss-tts

Install all required dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/OpenMOSS/MOSS-TTS.git
cd MOSS-TTS
pip install --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 -e .

(Optional) Install FlashAttention 2

For better speed and lower GPU memory usage, you can install FlashAttention 2 if your hardware supports it.

pip install --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 -e ".[flash-attn]"

If your machine has limited RAM and many CPU cores, you can cap build parallelism:

MAX_JOBS=4 pip install --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 -e ".[flash-attn]"

Notes:

• Dependencies are managed in pyproject.toml, which currently pins torch==2.9.1+cu128 and torchaudio==2.9.1+cu128.
• If FlashAttention 2 fails to build on your machine, you can skip it and use the default attention backend.
• FlashAttention 2 is only available on supported GPUs and is typically used with torch.float16 or torch.bfloat16.

Basic Usage

Tip: MOSS-TTS-v1.5 uses the same generation API as the 1.0 MossTTSDelay-8B checkpoint. For multilingual inputs, set language whenever the language is known.

MOSS-TTS provides a convenient generate interface for rapid usage. The examples below cover:

1. Direct generation (Chinese / English / multilingual text with language tags / Pinyin / IPA)
2. Voice cloning
3. Duration control
4. Explicit pause control with [pause X.Ys]

text_2 = "We stand on the threshold of the AI era.\nArtificial intelligence is no longer just a concept in laboratories, but is entering every industry, every creative endeavor, and every decision. It has learned to see, hear, speak, and think, and is beginning to become an extension of human capabilities. AI is not about replacing humans, but about amplifying human creativity, making knowledge more equitable, more efficient, and allowing imagination to reach further. A new era, jointly shaped by humans and intelligent systems, has arrived."
