WIP: Matcha-TTS-2

🍵 Matcha-TTS-2: A fast E2E TTS architecture with conditional flow matching (not fast enough for training yet xD)

[x] added experimental E2E TTS support; doing some small training to verify results. Expect me to update this model completely by end of November,23. [x] if anybody willing to help me understand cfm quicker, would be great. I have few questions. ty [x] I am trying 2 things -> (1) cfm decoder intermideiate output gives mel, give the mel to hifigan and compare hifigan's output's mel with real mel and also use prior loss to force textenc to be near the decoder's output (Which again is the mel). (2) a more "learnable" flexible model with freedom at decoder out, no prior restrictions and just final output mel (to make hifigan robust to noise, we add small sigma to decoder output while training), ATM the code is (2) and i think it is better. output from (2 ..still training)

Shivam Mehta, Ruibo Tu, Jonas Beskow, Éva Székely, and Gustav Eje Henter

This is the official code implementation of 🍵 Matcha-TTS.

We propose 🍵 Matcha-TTS, a new approach to non-autoregressive neural TTS, that uses conditional flow matching (similar to rectified flows) to speed up ODE-based speech synthesis. Our method:

• Is probabilistic
• Has compact memory footprint
• Sounds highly natural
• Is very fast to synthesise from

Check out our demo page and read our arXiv preprint for more details.

Pre-trained models will be automatically downloaded with the CLI or gradio interface.

Try 🍵 Matcha-TTS on HuggingFace 🤗 spaces!

Installation

1. Create an environment (suggested but optional)

conda create -n matcha-tts python=3.10 -y
conda activate matcha-tts

2. Install Matcha TTS using pip or from source

pip install matcha-tts

from source

pip install git+https://github.com/shivammehta25/Matcha-TTS.git
cd Matcha-TTS
pip install -e .

3. Run CLI / gradio app / jupyter notebook

# This will download the required models
matcha-tts --text "<INPUT TEXT>"

or

matcha-tts-app

or open synthesis.ipynb on jupyter notebook

CLI Arguments

• To synthesise from given text, run:

matcha-tts --text "<INPUT TEXT>"

• To synthesise from a file, run:

matcha-tts --file <PATH TO FILE>

• To batch synthesise from a file, run:

matcha-tts --file <PATH TO FILE> --batched

Train with your own dataset

Let's assume we are training with LJ Speech

1. Download the dataset from here, extract it to data/LJSpeech-1.1, and prepare the file lists to point to the extracted data like for item 5 in the setup of the NVIDIA Tacotron 2 repo.

2. Clone and enter the Matcha-TTS repository

git clone https://github.com/shivammehta25/Matcha-TTS.git
cd Matcha-TTS

3. Install the package from source

pip install -e .

4. Go to configs/data/ljspeech.yaml and change

train_filelist_path: data/filelists/ljs_audio_text_train_filelist.txt
valid_filelist_path: data/filelists/ljs_audio_text_val_filelist.txt

5. Generate normalisation statistics with the yaml file of dataset configuration

matcha-data-stats -i ljspeech.yaml
# Output:
#{'mel_mean': -5.53662231756592, 'mel_std': 2.1161014277038574}

Update these values in configs/data/ljspeech.yaml under data_statistics key.

data_statistics:  # Computed for ljspeech dataset
  mel_mean: -5.536622
  mel_std: 2.116101

to the paths of your train and validation filelists.

6. Run the training script

make train-ljspeech

or

python matcha/train.py experiment=ljspeech

• for a minimum memory run

python matcha/train.py experiment=ljspeech_min_memory

• for multi-gpu training, run

python matcha/train.py experiment=ljspeech trainer.devices=[0,1]

7. Synthesise from the custom trained model

matcha-tts --text "<INPUT TEXT>" --checkpoint_path <PATH TO CHECKPOINT>

ONNX support

Special thanks to @mush42 for implementing ONNX export and inference support.

It is possible to export Matcha checkpoints to ONNX, and run inference on the exported ONNX graph.

ONNX export

To export a checkpoint to ONNX, first install ONNX with

pip install onnx

then run the following:

python3 -m matcha.onnx.export matcha.ckpt model.onnx --n-timesteps 5

Optionally, the ONNX exporter accepts vocoder-name and vocoder-checkpoint arguments. This enables you to embed the vocoder in the exported graph and generate waveforms in a single run (similar to end-to-end TTS systems).

Note that n_timesteps is treated as a hyper-parameter rather than a model input. This means you should specify it during export (not during inference). If not specified, n_timesteps is set to 5.

Important: for now, torch>=2.1.0 is needed for export since the scaled_product_attention operator is not exportable in older versions. Until the final version is released, those who want to export their models must install torch>=2.1.0 manually as a pre-release.

ONNX Inference

To run inference on the exported model, first install onnxruntime using

pip install onnxruntime
pip install onnxruntime-gpu  # for GPU inference

then use the following:

python3 -m matcha.onnx.infer model.onnx --text "hey" --output-dir ./outputs

You can also control synthesis parameters:

python3 -m matcha.onnx.infer model.onnx --text "hey" --output-dir ./outputs --temperature 0.4 --speaking_rate 0.9 --spk 0

To run inference on GPU, make sure to install onnxruntime-gpu package, and then pass --gpu to the inference command:

python3 -m matcha.onnx.infer model.onnx --text "hey" --output-dir ./outputs --gpu

If you exported only Matcha to ONNX, this will write mel-spectrogram as graphs and numpy arrays to the output directory. If you embedded the vocoder in the exported graph, this will write .wav audio files to the output directory.

If you exported only Matcha to ONNX, and you want to run a full TTS pipeline, you can pass a path to a vocoder model in ONNX format:

python3 -m matcha.onnx.infer model.onnx --text "hey" --output-dir ./outputs --vocoder hifigan.small.onnx

This will write .wav audio files to the output directory.
