What's the best local TTS model right now? I'm running parakeet on a mac which transcribes all my uh's and aahs. I'm running whisper on linux/cuda and I by far prefer that one over parakeet.
- jv22222 2mo ago> parakeet on a mac which transcribes all my uh's and aahs You should be able to fix this by playing with the mic speech floor. It happens when to much ambient stuff slurps in. It's actually gaslighting you, you don't say that many ums and ahs ;)
- lxe 2mo agoThat is definitely not the case. It transcribes everything very accurately, especially all the "ahs" and "uhms".
- sipjca 2mo agoParakeet unified for me no longer does this and it’s also a streaming transcription model! But the answer largely depends on you, the languages you speak, and personal preference. Whisper is still excellent and supported in transcribe.cpp Cohere Transcribe is also excellent, but many of the new models are as well
- TomGarden 2mo agoI run the same, if you want try a simple filter post transcription to remove them, and while you're at it add some simple word replacements like 'cloud MD' to 'CLAUDE.MD'
- aghilmort 2mo agoaudio.cpp @ github repo has good collection of TTS models
