The core upgrades in MiniMax Speech 2.5 are in three main areas:
- Increased multilingual expressivenessOptimized the generation effect of Mandarin Chinese and improved the performance of English and other mainstream languages, solved the problem of "mechanical sense" in multi-language scenarios, and improved the degree of similarity and natural rhythms.
- Improved accuracy of sound reproduction: Enhanced ability to capture vocal details, especially in complex scenarios such as cross-language reproduction and preservation of specific accents (e.g., regional accents), enabling higher-fidelity reproduction. For example, it is possible to mimic specific speech accents and retain the vocal qualities of the original speaker when switching languages.
- Expanded language coverage: Support for niche languages such as Bulgarian, Danish, and Hebrew has been added, bringing the total number of languages to 40, providing more possibilities for globalized content deployment.
