<h2 id="getting-started">Getting Started</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">AllTalk is a web interface, based around the Coqui TTS voice cloning/speech generation system. To generate TTS, you can use the provided gradio interface or interact with the server using JSON/CURL commands.&nbsp;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note:</span> When loading up a new character in Text generation webUI it may look like nothing is happening for 20-30 seconds. Its actually processing the introduction section (greeting message) of the text and once that is completed, it will appear. You can see the activity occuring in the console window. Refreshing the page multiple times will try force the TTS engine to keep re-generating the text, so please just wait and check the console if needed.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note: </span>Ensure that your RP character card has asterisks around anything for the narration and double quotes around anything spoken. There is a complication ONLY with the greeting card so, ensuring it has the correct use of quotes and asterisks will help make sure that the greeting card sounds correct. I will aim to address this issue in a future update. In Text-generation-webUI <span style="color: #3366ff;">parameters menu</span> &gt; <span style="color: #3366ff;">character tab</span> &gt; <span style="color: #3366ff;">greeting</span>&nbsp;make sure that anything in there that is the narrator is in asterisks and anything spoken is in double quotes, then hit the <span style="color: #3366ff;">save</span> (💾) button.</p>

<h2 id="using-voice-samples"><strong>Using Voice Samples</strong></h2>
<h4 id="where-are-the-sample-voices-stored">Where are the sample voices stored?</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Voice samples are stored in <span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/voices/</span> and should be named using the following format <span style="color: #3366ff;">name.wav</span></p>
<h4 id="where-are-the-outputs-stored">Where are the outputs stored &amp; Automatic output wav file deletion.</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Voice outputs are stored in&nbsp;<span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/outputs/</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">You can configure automatic maintenence deletion of old wav files by setting <span style="color: #3366ff;">Del WAV's older than</span> in the settings above.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">When <span style="color: #3366ff;">Disabled</span> your output wav files will be left untouched. When set to a setting <span style="color: #3366ff;">1 Day</span> or greater, your output wav files older than that time period will be automatically deleted on start-up of AllTalk.</p>
<h4>Where are the models stored?</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">This extension will download the 2.0.2 model to <span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/models/</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">This TTS engine will also download the latest available model and store it wherever your OS normally stores it (Windows/Linux/Mac).</p>
<h4>How do I create a new voice sample?</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">To create a new voice sample you need to make a wav file that is <span style="color: #3366ff;">22050Hz</span>, <span style="color: #3366ff;">Mono</span>, <span style="color: #3366ff;">16 bit</span> and between 6 to 30 seconds long, though 8 to 10 seconds is usually good enough. The model can handle up to a 30 second samples, however Ive not noticed any improvement in voice output from a much longer clips.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">You want to find a nice clear selection of audio, so lets say you wanted to clone your favourite celebrity. You may go looking for an interview where they are talking. Pay close attention to the audio you are listening to and trying to sample. Are there noises in the backgroud, hiss on the soundtrack, a low humm, some quiet music playing or something? The better quality the audio the better the final TTS result. Dont forget, the AI that processes the sounds can hear everything in your sample and it will use them in the voice its trying to recreate.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Try make your clip one of nice flowing speech, like the included example files. No big pauses, gaps or other sounds. Preferably a sample that the person you are trying to copy will show a little vocal range and emotion in their voice. Also, try to avoid a clip starting or ending with breathy sounds (breathing in/out etc).</p>
<h4>Editing your sample!</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">So youve downloaded your favoutie celebrity interview off Youtube, from here you need to chop it down to 6 to 30 seconds in length and resample it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;">If you need to clean it up, do audio processing, volume level changes etc, do this before downsampling.<br /><br />Using the latest version of Audacity <span style="color: #3366ff;">select/highlight</span> your 6 to 30 second clip and:<br /><br /><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Tracks</span> &gt;<span style="color: #3366ff;"> Resample to 22050Hz</span>&nbsp;then<br /><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Tracks</span> &gt; <span style="color: #3366ff;">Mix</span> &gt; <span style="color: #3366ff;">Stereo to Mono&nbsp;</span>then<br /><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; File</span> &gt; <span style="color: #3366ff;">Export Audio</span>&nbsp;saving it as a <span style="color: #3366ff;">WAV</span> of <span style="color: #3366ff;">22050Hz</span>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Save your generated wav file in the&nbsp;<span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/voices/ <span style="color: #808080;">folder.</span></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Its worth mentioning that using AI generated audio clips may introduce unwanted sounds as its already a copy/simulation of a voice.</p>
<h4>Why doesnt it sound like XXX Person?</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">The reasons can be that you:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Didn't downsample it as above.</li>
<li>Have a bad quality voice sample.</li>
<li>Try using the 3x different generation methods: <span style="color: #3366ff;">API TTS</span>, <span style="color: #3366ff;">API Local</span>, and <span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local</span> within the web interface, as they generate output in different ways and sound different.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Some samples just never seem to work correctly, so maybe try a different sample. Always remember though, this is an AI model attempting to re-create a voice, so you will never get a 100% match.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="#toc">Back to top of page</a></p>
<h2 id="text-not-inside"><strong>Text Not inside</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">This only affects the Narrator function. Most AI models should be using asterisks or double quotes to differentiate between the Narrator or the Character, however, many models sometimes switch between using asterisks and double quotes or sometimes nothing at all for the text it outputs. <br /><br />This leaves a bit of a mess because sometimes un-marked text is narration and sometimes its the character talking, leaving no clear way to know where to split sentences and what voice to use. Whilst there is no 100% solution at the moment many models lean more one way or the other as to what that unmarked text will be (character or narrator).</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">As such, the "Text not inside" function at least gives you the choice to set how you want the TTS engine to handle situations of un-marked text.</p>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="/static/textnotinside.jpg" alt="When the AI doesnt use an asterisk or a quote" /></div>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="#toc">Back to top of page</a></p>
<h2 id="low-vram"><strong>Low VRAM</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">The Low VRAM option is a crucial feature designed to enhance performance under constrained (VRAM) conditions, as the TTS models require 2GB-3GB of VRAM to run effectively. This feature strategically manages the relocation of the Text-to-Speech (TTS) model between your system's Random Access Memory (RAM) and VRAM, moving it between the two on the fly. Obviously, this is very useful for people who have smaller graphics cards and will use all their VRAM to load in their LLM.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">When you dont have enough VRAM free after loading your LLM model into your VRAM (Normal Mode example below), you can see that with so little working space, your GPU will have to swap in and out bits of the TTS model, which causes horrible slowdown.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note:</span> An Nvidia Graphics card is required for the LowVRAM option to work, as you will just be using system RAM otherwise.&nbsp;</p>
<h4>How It Works:</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">The Low VRAM mode intelligently orchestrates the relocation of the entire TTS model and stores the TTS model in your system RAM. When the TTS engine requires VRAM for processing, the entire model seamlessly moves into VRAM, causing your LLM to unload/displace some layers, ensuring optimal performance of the TTS engine.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Post-TTS processing, the model moves back to system RAM, freeing up VRAM space for your Language Model (LLM) to load back in the missing layers. This adds about 1-2 seconds to both text generation by the LLM and the TTS engine.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">By transferring the entire model between RAM and VRAM, the Low VRAM option avoids fragmentation, ensuring the TTS model remains cohesive and has all the working space it needs in your GPU, without having to just work on small bits of the TTS model at a time (which causes terrible slow down).</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">This creates a TTS generation performance Boost for Low VRAM Users and is particularly beneficial for users with less than 2GB of free VRAM after loading their LLM, delivering a substantial 5-10x improvement in TTS generation speed.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="#toc">Back to top of page</a></p>
<h2 id="deepspeed"><strong>DeepSpeed</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">DeepSpeed provides a 2x-3x speed boost for Text-to-Speech and AI tasks. It's all about making AI and TTS happen faster and more efficiently.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Model Parallelism:</strong> Spreads work across multiple GPUs, making AI/TTS models handle tasks more efficiently.</li>
<li><strong>Memory Magic:</strong> Optimizes how memory is used, reducing the memory needed for large AI/TTS models.</li>
<li><strong>Handles More Load:</strong> Scales up to handle larger workloads with improved performance.</li>
<li><strong>Smart Resource Use:</strong> Uses your computer's resources smartly, getting the most out of your hardware.</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="/static/deepspeedexample.jpg" alt="DeepSpeed on vs off" /></div>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">DeepSpeed only works with the <span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local</span> model and will deactivate when other models are selected, even if the checkbox still shows as being selected.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note:</span> DeepSpeed/AllTalk may warn if the Nvidia Cuda Toolkit and CUDA_HOME environment variable isnt set correctly. On Linux you need CUDA_HOME configured correctly; on Windows, if you use the pre-built wheel its ok without.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note:</span><strong>&nbsp;</strong>You do <strong>not</strong> need to set Text-generation-webUi's --deepspeed setting for AllTalk to be able to use DeepSpeed.</p>

<h3 id="deepspeed-linux">DeepSpeed Setup - Linux</h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">➡️DeepSpeed requires an Nvidia Graphics card!⬅️</p>
<ol>
<li>Preferably use your built in package manager to install the CUDA toolkit. Alternatively download and install the Nvidia Cuda Toolkit for Linux <a href="https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-archive">Nvidia Cuda Toolkit 11.8 or 12.1</a></li>
<li>Open a terminal console.</li>
<li>Install <span style="color: #3366ff;">libaio-dev</span> (however your Linux version installs things) e.g. <span style="color: #3366ff;">sudo apt install libaio-dev</span></li>
<li>Move into your Text generation webUI folder e.g. <span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">cd text-generation-webui</span><br /></span></li>
<li>Start the Text generation webUI Python environment <span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">./cmd_linux.sh</span><br /></span></li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Text generation webUI <strong>overwrites</strong> the <strong>CUDA_HOME</strong> environment variable each time you <span style="color: #3366ff;">./cmd_linux.sh</span> or <span style="color: #3366ff;">./start_linux.sh&nbsp;</span>so you will need to either permanently change within the python environment OR set CUDA_HOME it each time you <span style="color: #3366ff;">./cmd_linux.sh</span>. Details to change it each time are on the next step. Below is a link to Conda's manual and changing environment variables permanently though its possible changing it permanently could affect other extensions, you would have to test.<a href="https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html#set-env-vars"> Conda manual - Environment variables<br /></a></li>
<li>You can temporarily set the <span style="color: #3366ff;">CUDA_HOME</span> environment with (Standard Ubuntu path below, but it could vary on other Linux flavours):<br /><br /><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">export CUDA_HOME=/etc/alternatives/cuda</span>&nbsp;</span><strong>every</strong> time you run <span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #808080;">.<span style="color: #3366ff;">/cmd_linux.sh</span></span><br /><br /></span>If you try to start DeepSpeed with the CUDA_HOME path set incorrectly, expect an error similar to:<br /><br /><span style="color: #ffcc00;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;[Errno 2] No such file or directory: /home/yourname/text-generation-webui/installer_files/env/bin/nvcc<br /><br /></span></li>
<li>Now install deepspeed with <span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">pip install deepspeed</span><br /></span></li>
<li>You can now start Text generation webUI <span style="color: #3366ff;">python server.py</span> ensuring to activate your extensions.<br /><br />Just to reiterate, starting Text-generation-webUI with <span style="color: #3366ff;">./start_linux.sh</span> will overwrite the CUDA_HOME variable unless you have permanently changed it, hence always starting it with <span style="color: #3366ff;">./cmd_linux.sh</span>&nbsp;<strong>then</strong> setting the environment variable manually <span style="color: #3366ff;">export CUDA_HOME=/etc/alternatives/cuda</span> and <strong>then</strong> <span style="color: #3366ff;">python server.py</span>&nbsp;which is how you would need to run it each time, unless you permanently set the environment variable for CUDA_HOME within Text-generation-webUI's standard Python environment.<br /><br /><span style="color: #ff0000;">Removal</span><strong> -</strong> If it became necessary to uninstall DeepSpeed, you can do so with <span style="color: #3366ff;">./cmd_linux.sh</span> and then <span style="color: #3366ff;">pip uninstall deepspeed</span></li>

<h3 id="deepspeed-windows">DeepSpeed Setup - Windows</h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">➡️DeepSpeed requires an Nvidia Graphics card!⬅️</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">DeepSpeed v11.2 will work on the current default text-generation-webui Python 3.11 environment! You have 2x options for how to setup DeepSpeed on Windows. A quick way <span style="color: #339966;"><strong>Option 1</strong></span>&nbsp;and a long way <span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Option 2</strong></span>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Thanks to <a href="https://github.com/S95Sedan">@S95Sedan</a> They managed to get DeepSpeed 11.2 working on Windows via making some edits to the original Microsoft DeepSpeed v11.2 installation. The original post is <a href="https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/issues/4734#issuecomment-1843984142">here</a>.<br /><br /></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #339966; text-decoration: underline;">OPTION 1 - <span style="color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;">Pre-Compiled Wheel Deepspeed v11.2 (Python 3.11 and 3.10)</span></span></span></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Download the correct wheel version for your Python/Cuda from <a href="https://github.com/erew123/alltalk_tts/releases/tag/deepspeed" target="_blank">here</a> and save the file it inside your <span style="color: #3366ff;">text-generation-webui folder</span>.</li>
<li>Open a command prompt window, move into your <span style="color: #3366ff;">text-generation-webui folder</span> you can now start the Python environment for text-generation-webui <span style="color: #3366ff;">cmd_windows.bat<br /></span></li>
<li>With the file that you saved in the <span style="color: #3366ff;">text-generation-webui folder</span> you now type the following, replacing <span style="color: #99cc00;">your-version</span> with the name of the file you have:<br /><br /><span style="color: #3366ff;">pip install "deepspeed-0.11.2+<span style="color: #99cc00;">your-version</span>-win_amd64.whl"<br /><br /></span></li>
<li>This should install through cleanly and you should now have DeepSpeed v11.2 installed within the Python 3.11/3.10 environment of text-generation-webui.</li>

<h2 id="TTSmodels">TTS Models/Methods</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">It's worth noting that all models and methods can and do sound different from one another. Many people complained about the quality of audio produced by the 2.0.3 model, so this extension will download the 2.0.2 model to your models folder and give you the choice to use 2.0.2 (<span style="color: #3366ff;">API Local</span> and <span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local</span>) or use the most current model 2.0.3 (<span style="color: #3366ff;">API TTS</span>). As/When a new model is released by Coqui it will be downloaded by the TTS service on startup and stored wherever the TTS service keeps new models for your operating system.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #3366ff;">API TTS:</span> Uses the current TTS model available that's downloaded by the TTS API process ( version 2.0.3 at the time of writing). This model is not stored in your "models" folder, but elsewhere on your system and managed by the TTS software.<br /></li>
<li><span style="color: #3366ff;">API Local:</span> Utilizes the 2.0.2 local model stored at <span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/models/xttsv2_2.0.2<br /></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local: </span>Utilizes the 2.0.2 local model <span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/models/xttsv2_2.0.2</span> and utilizes a distinct TTS generation method. <span style="color: #99cc00;">Supports DeepSpeed acceleration</span>.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="#toc">Back to top of page</a></p>
<h2 id="temperature-and-repetition-settings"><strong>Model Temperature and Repetition Settings</strong></h3>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">It is recommended not to modify these settings unless you fully comprehend their effects. A general overview is provided below for reference.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Changes to these settings won't take effect until you restart AllTalk/Text generation webUI.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">These settings only affect API Local and XTTSv2 Local methods.</p>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">Repetition Penalty:</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">In the context of text-to-speech (TTS), the Repetition Penalty<strong>&nbsp;</strong>influences how the model handles the repetition of sounds, phonemes, or intonation patterns. Here's how it works:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>Higher Repetition Penalty (e.g. 16.0):</strong> The model is less likely to repeat sounds or patterns. It promotes diversity in the generated speech. This can result in a more varied and expressive output, though introduce elements of unpredictability in the TTS output.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Lower Repetition Penalty (e.g. 2.0):</strong> The model is more tolerant of repeating sounds or patterns. This might lead to more repetition in the generated speech, potentially making it sound more structured or rhythmically consistent. Lower values can still introduce expressive variations, but to a lesser extent. This tendency means that the generated speech may remain closer to the original sample.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">The factory setting for repetition penalty is 10.0</p>
<h4>Temperature:</h4>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Temperature&nbsp;influences the randomness of the generated speech. Here's how it affects the output:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>Higher Temperature (e.g. 0.95):</strong> Increases randomness in how the model selects and pronounces phonemes or intonation patterns. This can result in more creative, but potentially less controlled or "stable," speech that may deviate from the input sample. It adds an element of unpredictability and variety, contributing to expressiveness in the voice output created.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Lower Temperature (e.g. 0.20):</strong> Reduces randomness, making the model more likely to closely mimic the input sample's voice, intonation, and overall style. This tends to produce more "coherent" speech that aligns closely with the characteristics of the training data or input voice sample. It adds a level of predictability and consistency, potentially reducing expressive variations. So it could end up sounging too monotone.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">The factory setting for temperature is 0.70</p>
<h4><strong>Temperature and Repetition Settings Examples:</strong></h4>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>Temp High (0.90) and Repetition High (16.0):</strong><br /> Result: Speech may sound highly creative and diverse, with reduced repetition. It could be more expressive and unpredictable.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Temp Low (0.20) and Repetition High (16.0):</strong><br /> Result: Output tends to be focused and deterministic, but with reduced repetition. It may sound structured and less expressive.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Temp High (0.90) and Repetition Low (2.0):</strong><br /> Result: Speech may be more creative and diverse, with tolerance for repeating sounds. It could have expressive variations but with some structured patterns.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Temp Low (0.20) and Repetition Low (2.0):</strong><br /> Result: Output is focused and deterministic, with tolerance for repeating sounds. It may sound more structured and less expressive.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Factory settings should be fine for most people, however if you choose to experiment, setting extremely high or low values, especially without a good understanding of their effects, may lead to flat-sounding output or very strange-sounding output. It's advisable to experiment with adjustments incrementally and observe the impact on the generated speech to find a balance that suits your desired outcome.</p>

<h2 id="start-up-checks">Start-up Checks</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">AllTalk performs a variety of checks on startup and will warn out messages at the console should you need to do something such as update your TTS version.&nbsp;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">A basic environment check to ensure everything should work e.g. is the model already downloaded, are the configuration files set correctly etc.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">AllTalk will download the Xtts model (version 2.0.2) into your models folder. Many people didnt like the quality of the 2.0.3 model, however the latest model will be accessable on the API TTS setting (2.0.3 at the time of writing) so you have the best of both worlds.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="#toc">Back to top of page</a></p>
<h2 id="customTTSmodels">Custom TTS Models and Model path</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Its possible to set a custom model for the <span style="color: #3366ff;">API Local</span> and <span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local</span> methods, or indeed point it at the same model that <span style="color: #3366ff;">API TTS</span> uses (wherever it is stored on your OS of choice).</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Many people did not like the sound quality of the Coqui <span style="color: #000000;">2.0.3</span> model, and as such the AllTalk downloads the <span style="color: #000000;">2.0.2</span> model seperately from the <span style="color: #000000;">2.0.3</span> model that TTS service downloads and manages.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Typically the <span style="color: #000000;">2.0.2</span> model is stored in your <span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/models</span> folder and it is downloaded on first start-up of the&nbsp;AllTalk_tts extension. However, you may either want to use a custom model version of your choosing, or re-point AllTalk to a different path on your system, or even point it so that&nbsp;<span style="color: #3366ff;">API Local</span> and <span style="color: #3366ff;">XTTSv2 Local</span> both use the same model that <span style="color: #3366ff;">API TTS</span> is using.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">If you do choose to change the location there are a couple of things to note.&nbsp;</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>The folder you place the model in, <span style="color: #3366ff;">cannot </span>be called "<span style="color: #3366ff;">models</span>". This name is reserved solely for the system to identify you are or are not using a custom model.</li>
<li>On each startup, the&nbsp;AllTalk tts extension will check the custom location and if it does not exist, it will create it and download the files it needs. It will also re download any missing files in that location that are needed for the model to function.</li>
<li>There will be extra output at the console to inform you that you are using a custom model and each time you load up AllTalk extension or switch between models.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">To change the model path, there are at minimum 2x settings you need to alter in the <span style="color: #3366ff;">modeldownload.json</span> file, <span style="color: #3366ff;">base_path </span>and <span style="color: #3366ff;">model_path</span>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">You would edit the settings in the <span style="color: #3366ff;">modeldownload.json</span> file as follows (make a backup of your current file in case):<br /><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Windows path example:&nbsp;<span style="color: #2980b9;">c:&bsol;&bsol;mystuff&bsol;&bsol;mydownloads&bsol;&bsol;myTTSmodel&bsol;&bsol;</span><span style="color: #00ccff;"><em>{files in here}<br /></em></span><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; base_path</span> would be "<span style="color: #2980b9;">c:&bsol;&bsol;mystuff&bsol;&bsol;mydownloads"<br /></span><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; model_path</span> would be:<span style="color: #2980b9;">&nbsp;"myTTSmodel"</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Note: </span>On Windows systems, you have to specify a <span style="color: #e74c3c;"></span><span style="color: #e74c3c;">double backslash &bsol;&bsol;</span> for each folder level in the path (as above)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Linux path example:&nbsp;<span style="color: #2980b9;">/home/myaccount/myTTSmodel/</span><span style="color: #00ccff;"><em>{files in here}<br /></em></span><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; base_path</span> would be "<span style="color: #2980b9;">/home/myaccount"<br /></span><span style="color: #3366ff;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; model_path</span> would be:<span style="color: #2980b9;">&nbsp;"TTSmodel"<br /><br /></span>Once you restart Alltalk, it will check this path for the files and output any details at the console.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">When you are happy it's' working correctly, you are welcome to go delete the models folder stored at&nbsp;<span style="color: #3366ff;">/alltalk_tts/models</span><strong>.</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">If you wish to change the files that the modeldownloader is pulling at startup, you can futher edit the <span style="color: #3366ff;">modeldownload.json</span> and change the https addresses within this files&nbsp;<span style="color: #3366ff;">files_to_download</span> section &nbsp;e.g.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">"files_to_download": {<br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "LICENSE.txt": "<span style="color: #00ccff;">https://huggingface.co/coqui/XTTS-v2/resolve/v2.0.2/LICENSE.txt?download=true</span>",<br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "README.md": "<span style="color: #00ccff;">https://huggingface.co/coqui/XTTS-v2/resolve/v2.0.2/README.md?download=true</span>",<br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "config.json": "<span style="color: #00ccff;">https://huggingface.co/coqui/XTTS-v2/resolve/v2.0.2/config.json?download=true</span>",<br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "model.pth": "<span style="color: #00ccff;">https://huggingface.co/coqui/XTTS-v2/resolve/v2.0.2/model.pth?download=true</span>",<br /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; "vocab.json": "<span style="color: #00ccff;">https://huggingface.co/coqui/XTTS-v2/resolve/v2.0.2/vocab.json?download=true</span>"<br />&nbsp;}</p>

<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Command line outputs are more verbose to assist in understanding backend processes and debugging.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Its possible during startup you can get a warning message such as: <br /><br /><span style="color: black;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;[AllTalk Startup]</span> <span style="color: #ff0000;">Warning</span> <span style="color: black;">TTS Subprocess has NOT started up yet, Will keep trying for 60 seconds maximum</span> <br /><br />This is normal behavior if the subprocess is taking a while to start, however, if there is an issue starting the subprocess, you may see multiples of this message and an it will time out after 60 seconds, resulting in the TTS engine not starting. Its likely that you are not in the correct python environment or one that has a TTS engine inside, if this happens, though the system will output a warning about that ahead of this message</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;">Typically the command line console will output any warning or error messages. If you need to reset your default configuation, the settings are all listed above in the configuration details.</p>
