Hello my friend! Seems like you've read my mind this morning. I was specifically looking for free TTS platforms for the last 2 hrs with no luck, praying you'll come up with the solution in one of your videos, and there you are right on time. Thank you so much for your content!
Thank you, finally one video that explained in layman terms, most of the videos I have been watching regarding these text to voice software just ending explaining in a way they assume everyone in the world to be programmer. Thanks a lot for the video and the software, no way am I a layman in terms of computers n graphics but not every single designer is a programmer, this video helped a lot.
this is pretty rad, wish i knew Applio existed back when you released this video because ive been fumbling with various TTS webuis since last year and none have been the right "it just works" fit. Until now. Thanks, very helpful vid.
@BobDoyleMedia I would like to say thank you so much for making this video and showcasing this software / AI tool. For the last two weeks, I have been exploring different AI tools to clone voices for a persona project and each AI tool I were experimenting with wasn't working correctly or was simply broken. Applio is one of the most stable tools I've seen during my two weeks and I didn't need to install it via Git installation or other complex means. The training segment isn't working sadly but I can use RVC itself to train the data and input the final voice model into Applio and it works... Finally! Again, thank you so much for your support and for sharing this information... I'll look forward of seeing your future videos. Take care!
finally! This is the exact tool I need! I'm trying to recreate some decades old forgotten/lost media that will be gone forever unless someone saves it, and this is exactly the tool I was looking for. I have been trying voice clones with text to speech free online with mixed results. I am all for ethical use of AI and will exploit the heck out of it for good ends
Thanks for your great explanations, found you by accident. Q ...I want to sample a vocalists voice , as singing and not spoken word. What A! app would you recommend please as I dont think anyone covers this need etc , thanks for any tips
hey, I have problems with the Polish language because the generator reads a instead of Polish ą. how to solve this problem? what does it depend on? Did I train the model wrong?
Hi Bob! I just recently became aware of this tech, and I decided to use it to create a model of my own voice. I literally came across this video when trying to figure out how to make RVC work, and I immediatly installed Applio and damn it works so fing well!!! The reason I wanna create a moadel of my own voice is so that I can streamline content creation for short video format to post online, I did the math and having to record audio for every video would be a pain in the butt, so I figured why not make a voice model and use TTS to easily narrate my scripts. As I'm writing this I'm looking at my other screen and it seems like the thing is being trained, so I cross my fingers. Thank you so much for the help with this, it was super easy to follow! Do you think TTS is a realiable way of generating realistic narrations? Because so far it sounds a bit robotic. Doing Audio to Audio is not really an option in my case.
Hey bob, when I am in the text to speech mode, my index file contains nothing while all the rest of the drop downs are populated. Would you have any idea why this is happening?
Thank you Bob for your very interesting and well-documented videos. Whenever you can, could you make a video to apply this technology to music? Is it possible to use this system to create a model to be used as a singer's voice?
Actually, that’s exactly what most of this is used for. I have several other videos on this. Check my last few post and you’ll see that they’re very music centric.
@@BobDoyleMedia Thanks Bob, but I wanted to understand if Applio can export a model to use with Replay to replace its own voice in a song created, for example, with Udio. If so, could you briefly explain how I can do it?
That's a combination of (at the time) ElevenLabs speech to speech (which you can do with Applio, covered in this video) and then a program called "FaceFusion" for the faceswap. I've covered how it's used in other videos, but haven't yet done a dedicated FaceFusion video - so I guess it's about time to do that. It's also a free solution. ua-cam.com/video/20o-5orWrHU/v-deo.htmlsi=Tqu_fDvOz43r35tF&t=1036
Hello, I'm searching for the answer and I can't find it. I wonder if there is a way to somehow scale the gain value of the RVC model when converting a recorded voice (inference tab)? So the model change the original voice for example in 50%
The TTS voice is completely dependent on the generated file that is created before the conversion takes place. I would go through and test a lot of those and see if any of them sound real. Otherwise, I would just record my own voice, saying what I wanted to say how I wanted to say it and then convert that.
Thank you for this guide! So far I've trained 3 voice models, using it. The first 2 took 2-3 hours, but I've got a fairly slow system. The third one has all the exact same settings as the first 2, but a HEAVY British accent, and a 30-minute audio sample. 11 hours later, it's only on the 21st epoch, and almost 1800 steps. Should I go ahead and stop it? Why in the world is it taking so much longer than the others, does the size of the audio sample make that much of a difference?
I just found out the reason for this, and it's not really either of those things. First of all I didn't realize that training settings were not saved, so I tried to train a new model without "cache dataset in RAM" selected, which made a big difference. Then I realized I had accidentally put 2 MP3's in my dataset folders, instead of WAV files. MP3's do not process anywhere near as quickly, as you might well imagine, due to them being compressed! I had tried to replace one of them and actually put it back into the training folder WITH the MP3! NO WONDER it took so long! I also no longer had "Overtraining" protection turned on, so those were likely 12 wasted hours anyway. I've already started on a new model from the ashes of that one, and already it's going 75% faster.
The tech is great. I guess I have to question the availability of well known character voices. I assume a voice isn't as absolute as an image perhaps. Having said that some voice actor is making his living from doing these voices. You of all people will appreciate that debate I guess. Great video as usual.
great stuff but any idea why im getting a red error message when i try to do any actions? and how to download voice models? my list is empty only showing big list in TTS
Thanks for producing these videos. I do have a question. These voice clone services are pretty amazing, but do they all work based on English (or other major known languages) only? As of now, is there a tool available that would basically just mimic a reference vocal track (regardless of the language) and reproduce it with another voice? For example: You did a video where you sang a melody and then replaced it with some male/female AI voices. Does that only work if you sing in English or other officially trained languages ? In other words, does the AI look at the lyrics to reproduce the voice? If that's the case, then for the time being we can only use them for certain languages, right?
thanks again i recently downloaded this but was a lil bit let down by some models, but the voice to voice mode is so damn useful! thanks! maybe another video about the best voice models? greatly appreciate your vids!
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful. I managed to train according to the video and created it. am a model. also created the index file, but unfortunately I couldn't export it because it doesn't see it. You don't see the index file in TTS either. Where can I find the path to the index file. I want to ask for help.

HELP! HOW CAN I USE APPLIO OUTSIDE OF THE GUI! I Need to load models and generate tts via text on some sort of programming language. I cant work with the gui.
i first got to know applio when searching for voice synthesis. then I realized applio is using edge_tts internally, I ended up using edge_tts directly, which is much more light-weight. This time round, I hit applio again searching for voice cloning. Does anyone know what is the underlying library applio is using to clone voice? I'll eventually dig into it myself if I do not get any replies soon. First time watching Bob's video. I feel it's well organized and and condensed with the information viewers want. Excellent work!
The TTS in Applio is NOT running locally. The "predefined" voices are loaded through a Microsoft API and the TTS is performed by them (it uses edge_tts). Keep that in mind when you upload the minutes of your top-secret meeting or when you make Squidward say really nasty things.
Great tutorial Bob! Have you tried the Voice Training feature (currently in Beta) recently included within the latest version of the Replay AI software? I thought it'll be great material for you to make a video of. Looking forward to watch that tutorial and hear your opinion on its quality if you end up making one. Thank you for this one! Cheers!

Thanks for the video. does applio run on AMD gpus too? if yes, do you need to do anything special to get it to work or is it just like in this video?
This video makes it very clear that only Nvidia supports the app.
hey, I have problems with the Polish language because the generator reads a instead of Polish ą. how to solve this problem? what does it depend on? Did I train the model wrong?
I always love a free local model. Gonna convert all of the John Scalzi Audiobooks that i purchased from Will Weaton to either Stephen Fry or John Lee.
I have a question. Can you delete the rest of the trained voice files, exluding of course the pth and index file?
mine doesn't make the inference file also knon as the .pth file. Any clue on a fix guys???
