Episode Details

Zero-shot voice cloning gets you ninety percent of the way in ten seconds, then drifts across hundreds of hours. This episode tests a plan to stabilize a synthetic voice by generating twenty minutes of audio, polishing it with NVIDIA's RE-USE enhancement model, and fine-tuning an open TTS model like OmniVoice or VoxCPM2. It covers why curation matters more than bulk, how enhancement can flatten micro-prosody, what the ZeSTA and Interspeech benchmarks show, and how Cal Bryant's Piper pipeline proved the concept.
