Generating Chinese speech using Orpheus-TTS can be divided into 4 key steps:
- environmental preparation: Install Python 3.8-3.11, recommend Nvidia GPU (≥12GB video memory) and configure CUDA environment.
- Installation of core components::
Install stable version dependencies via pip:pip install orpheus-speech vllm==0.7.3 transformers - Download Chinese Model::
Get multilingual models from Hugging Face:huggingface-cli download canopylabs/orpheus-multilingual-research-release - Generate Speech::
Called using Python script (note that Chinese need to specify Chinese character roles):from orpheus_tts import OrpheusModel
model = OrpheusModel(model_name="canopylabs/orpheus-multilingual-research-release")
audio = model.generate_speech("zh_char: 欢迎使用中文语音合成系统")
Note: Chinese support requires the loading of a multilingual model package; if you encounter a vLLM error report, you can try to downgrade to version 0.7.1; the first run requires the download of a model file of about 5GB.
