You're in luck, the code dropped 6 hours ago :) https://github.com/yl4579/StyleTTS2

Looks promising, I'm going to check it out too! MIT license, even! If it's fast enough for real time, it could be the new best option. The paper claims faster inference than VITS...

Ha awesome! I just checked the repo literally before I posted and it was still empty, thanks for the heads up, will give it a spin now.

Just a followup for those interested, inference implementation notes and comparison clip between StyleTTS2, TTS VITS, and XTTS: https://fediverse.randomfoo.net/notice/AaOgprU715gcT5GrZ2

Wow you got it working so fast! I'm still stuck in package manager hell trying to debug a million little issues.

In my post I link to my issue where I outline what I needed to do from a clean mamba env that might help.

Pytorch nightly (I use for cuda-12) doesn't work w Python 3.12, but if you stick w 3.11 or 3.10 you should be ok. Rest was just w/o version numbers if you're on a clean venv should be fine, however there's a bug in the Utils lib that requires a 1-line fix if you're trying to inference (also linked). nltk was the only dependency not listed so not bad compared to most code drops!

I spent a couple of hours debugging why jupyter's debugger wasn't working right, so not exactly related to the code. I did also find and fix that utils bug you mentioned. But my current issue is that phonemizer won't find espeak even though I set the environment variables that are supposed to work. I'll figure it out eventually...

Thanks for writing up your experience! Good to know it works! And it's fast!

Are you on Windows? I've had the issue and was able to fix it by manually adding these system variables:

  PHONEMIZER_ESPEAK_LIBRARY = c:\Program Files\eSpeak NG\libespeak-ng.dll

  PHONEMIZER_ESPEAK_PATH = c:\Program Files\eSpeak NG
