Nice to see Tortoise being used - I still think it's the best TTS system out there now. Generation time is slow, but quality is incredible. I wonder if the code can be optimised to speed up the generation, but I don't think the author is maintaining it any longer.[0]
Tortoise looks really nice! The output is very "polished" and audiobook-like. It's a contrast to Bark[0] which is far more expressive but unpredictable.
