VoxCPM is a **tokenizer-free** Text-to-Speech system that directly generates continuous speech representations via an end-to-end **diffusion autoregressive architecture**, bypassing discrete tokenization to achieve highly natural and expressive synthesis.

**VoxCPM2** is the latest major release — a **2B** parameter model trained on **over 2 million hours** of multilingual speech data, now supporting **30 languages**, **Voice Design**, **Controllable Voice Cloning**, and **48kHz** studio-quality audio output. Built on a [MiniCPM-4](https://github.com/OpenBMB/MiniCPM) backbone.

### ✨ Highlights

- 🌍 **30-Language Multilingual** — Input text in any of the 30 supported languages and synthesize directly, no language tag needed
- 🎨 **Voice Design** — Create a brand-new voice from a natural-language description alone (gender, age, tone, emotion, pace …), no reference audio required
- 🎛️ **Controllable Cloning** — Clone any voice from a short reference clip, with optional style guidance to steer emotion, pace, and expression while preserving the original timbre
- 🎙️ **Ultimate Cloning** — Reproduce every vocal nuance: provide both reference audio and its transcript, and the model continues seamlessly from the reference, faithfully preserving every vocal detail — timbre, rhythm, emotion, and style (same as VoxCPM1.5)
- 🔊 **48kHz High-Quality Audio** — Accepts 16kHz reference audio and directly outputs 48kHz studio-quality audio via AudioVAE V2's asymmetric encode/decode design, with built-in super-resolution — no external upsampler needed
- 🧠 **Context-Aware Synthesis** — Automatically infers appropriate prosody and expressiveness from text content
- ⚡ **Real-Time Streaming** — RTF as low as ~0.13 on NVIDIA RTX 4090 by [Nano-VLLM](https://github.com/huggingface/nano-vllm)
- 📜 **Fully Open-Source & Commercial-Ready** — Weights and code released under the [Apache-2.0](LICENSE) license, free for commercial use

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```sh
uv pip install voxcpm
```

> **Requirements:** Python ≥ 3.10, PyTorch ≥ 2.5.0, CUDA ≥ 12.0. See [Quick Start Docs](https://voxcpm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html) for details.

### Python API

#### 🗣️ Text-to-Speech

```python
from voxcpm import VoxCPM
import soundfile as sf

model = VoxCPM.from_pretrained(
  "openbmb/VoxCPM2"
  load_denoiser=False,
)

wav = model.generate(
    text="VoxCPM2 is the current recommended release for realistic multilingual speech synthesis.",
    cfg_value=2.0,
    inference_timesteps=10,
)
sf.write("demo.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)
print("saved: demo.wav")
```

#### 🎨 Voice Design

Create a voice from a natural-language description — no reference audio needed. **Format:** put the description in parentheses at the start of `text`(e.g. `"(your voice description)The text to synthesize."`):

```python
wav = model.generate(
    text="(A young woman, gentle and sweet voice)Hello, welcome to VoxCPM2!",
    cfg_value=2.0,
    inference_timesteps=10,
)
sf.write("voice_design.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)
```

#### 🎛️ Controllable Voice Cloning

Upload a reference audio. The model clones the timbre, and you can still use control instructions to adjust speed, emotion, or style.

```python
wav = model.generate(
    text="This is a cloned voice generated by VoxCPM2.",
    reference_wav_path="speaker.wav",
)
sf.write("clone.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)

wav = model.generate(
    text="(slightly faster, cheerful tone)This is a cloned voice with style control.",
    reference_wav_path="speaker.wav",
    cfg_value=2.0,
    inference_timesteps=10,
)
sf.write("controllable_clone.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)
```

#### 🎙️ Ultimate Cloning

Provide both the reference audio and its exact transcript for audio-continuation-based cloning with every vocal nuance reproduced. For maximum cloning similarity, pass the same reference clip to both `reference_wav_path` and `prompt_wav_path` as shown below:

```python
wav = model.generate(
    text="This is an ultimate cloning demonstration using VoxCPM2.",
    prompt_wav_path="speaker_reference.wav",
    prompt_text="The transcript of the reference audio.",
    reference_wav_path="speaker_reference.wav",
)
sf.write("hifi_clone.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)
```

<details>
<summary><b>🔄 Streaming API</b></summary>

```python
import numpy as np

chunks = []
for chunk in model.generate_streaming(
    text="Streaming text to speech is easy with VoxCPM!",
):
    chunks.append(chunk)
wav = np.concatenate(chunks)
sf.write("streaming.wav", wav, model.tts_model.sample_rate)
```
</details>

### CLI Usage

```bash
# Voice design (no reference audio needed)
voxcpm design \
  --text "VoxCPM2 brings studio-quality multilingual speech synthesis." \
  --output out.wav

# Voice design with style control
voxcpm design \
  --text "VoxCPM2 brings studio-quality multilingual speech synthesis." \
  --control "Young female voice, warm and gentle, slightly smiling" \
  --output out.wav

# Voice cloning (reference audio)
voxcpm clone \
  --text "This is a voice cloning demo." \
  --reference-audio path/to/voice.wav \
  --output out.wav

# Ultimate cloning (prompt audio + transcript)
voxcpm clone \
  --text "This is a voice cloning demo." \
  --prompt-audio path/to/voice.wav \
  --prompt-text "reference transcript" \
  --output out.wav

# Batch processing
voxcpm batch --input examples/input.txt --output-dir outs

# Help
voxcpm --help
```

### Web Demo

```bash
python app.py   # then open http://localhost:7860
```

### 🚢 Production Deployment (Nano-vLLM)

For high-throughput serving, use [**Nano-vLLM-VoxCPM**](https://github.com/a710128/nanovllm-voxcpm) — a dedicated inference engine built on Nano-vLLM with concurrent request support and an async API.

```bash
pip install nano-vllm-voxcpm
```

```python
from nanovllm_voxcpm import VoxCPM
import numpy as np, soundfile as sf

server = VoxCPM.from_pretrained(model="/path/to/VoxCPM", devices=[0])
chunks = list(server.generate(target_text="Hello from VoxCPM!"))
sf.write("out.wav", np.concatenate(chunks), 48000)
server.stop()
```

> **RTF as low as ~0.13 on NVIDIA RTX 4090** (vs ~0.3 with the standard PyTorch implementation), with support for batched concurrent requests and a FastAPI HTTP server. See the [Nano-vLLM-VoxCPM repo](https://github.com/a710128/nanovllm-voxcpm) for deployment details.

## ⚙️ Fine-tuning

VoxCPM supports both **full fine-tuning (SFT)** and **LoRA fine-tuning**. With as little as **5–10 minutes** of audio, you can adapt to a specific speaker, language, or domain.

```bash
# LoRA fine-tuning (parameter-efficient, recommended)
python scripts/train_voxcpm_finetune.py \
    --config_path conf/voxcpm_v2/voxcpm_finetune_lora.yaml

# Full fine-tuning
python scripts/train_voxcpm_finetune.py \
    --config_path conf/voxcpm_v2/voxcpm_finetune_all.yaml

# WebUI for training & inference
python lora_ft_webui.py   # then open http://localhost:7860
```

## ⚠️ Risks and Limitations

- **Potential for Misuse:** VoxCPM's voice cloning can generate highly realistic synthetic speech. It is **strictly forbidden** to use VoxCPM for impersonation, fraud, or disinformation. We strongly recommend clearly marking any AI-generated content.
- **Controllable Generation Stability:** Voice Design and Style Control results can vary between runs — you may try to generate 1~3 times to obtain the desired voice or style. We are actively working on improving controllability consistency.
- **Language Coverage:** VoxCPM2 officially supports 30 languages. For languages not on the list, you are welcome to test directly or try fine-tuning on your own data. We plan to expand language coverage in future releases.
- **Usage:** This model is released under the Apache-2.0 license. For production deployments, we recommend conducting thorough testing and safety evaluation tailored to your use case.
