ParlerTTS¶
Separates the spoken text from Parler-TTS's acoustic style description.
Parameter metadata: Exact learned-parameter total for VoiceHub's audited native primary graph at the registered default selection; separately loaded auxiliary models are excluded.
Usage¶
Complete the VoiceHub installation once, then run this repository-authored example. Model pages intentionally contain no package-install command.
This example is maintained against VoiceHub's public API; it is not copied from an upstream demo or package README.
Model-specific path: Separates the spoken text from Parler-TTS's acoustic style description.
Inputs and controls: Describe voice, pace, and recording conditions in description, not in the text to be spoken.
from pathlib import Path
from voicehub import AutoModelForTextToSpeech, TTSGenerationConfig
model = AutoModelForTextToSpeech.from_pretrained(
'parler-tts/parler-tts-mini-v1',
model_type='parlertts',
device="cuda",
lazy_load=True,
)
output = model.generate(
'VoiceHub keeps model integrations explicit and reproducible.',
generation_config=TTSGenerationConfig(
seed=42,
output_file=Path("output.wav"),
),
description="A clear, close-mic voice at a steady pace with very little background noise",
)
print(output.file_path, output.sample_rate, output.metadata)
Use authorized recordings. Verify hardware needs and pin a revision in production.
Overview¶
parlertts is a VoiceHub text to speech
integration. This page is generated from its registry contract. Open the parlertts Colab notebook.

Paper and GitHub¶

- Upstream GitHub: Parler-TTS
- VoiceHub source: VoiceHub model implementation
Configuration¶
Load configuration without constructing the model:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Canonical model type | parlertts |
| Configuration class | ParlerTTSConfig |
| Architecture class | ParlerTTSForTextToSpeech |
Processing¶
Create the registered processor without allocating model weights:
from voicehub import AutoProcessor
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(
'parler-tts/parler-tts-mini-v1',
model_type='parlertts',
)
print(type(processor).__name__)
Inference¶
The Usage example returns TTSOutput through AutoModelForTextToSpeech.
Input and output contract¶
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Readiness | integrated-raw |
| Data architecture | sequence-to-sequence |
| Sample rate | 44,100 Hz |
| Contract getter | get_tts_dataset_spec('parlertts') |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Encoder text plus teacher-forced acoustic or codec targets. See the data workflow.
Training and optimization¶
Use available_optimization_passes() to discover reversible public passes.
Unsupported runtime or hardware fails closed before mutation.
Training contract¶
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Support | native |
| Family | sequence-to-sequence |
| Recipe | single-phase |
| Default phase | default |
| Training checkpoint | parler-tts/parler-tts-mini-v1 |
| Native training graph | yes |

|---|---|---|---|---|

The integration accepts its declared source or prepared contract directly. Call model.validate_training_support() first, then follow the
training workflow.
Checkpoints, provenance, license, and limitations¶
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Default checkpoint | parler-tts/parler-tts-mini-v1 |
| Hugging Face ID | parler-tts/parler-tts-mini-v1Repository availability verified through the Hugging Face model API on 2026-08-11; pin a revision before production use. |
| Checkpoint status | Registry default; pin an immutable revision for production and reproducible evidence |
| Optional dependency extra | Core package |
| Hardware and runtime | Usage selects cuda; verify checkpoint-specific requirements |
| Real-checkpoint evidence | Release evidence; a registry default alone is not execution evidence |
| Implementation | voicehub.models.parlertts.modeling_parlertts.ParlerTTSForTextToSpeech |
| Configuration | voicehub.models.parlertts.configuration_parlertts.ParlerTTSConfig |
| Source provenance | voicehub/models/parlertts/source/SOURCE.json |
| License | Checkpoint-specific |
No VoiceHub-specific license override is registered. Verify the checkpoint and upstream source terms before use.
Confirm the checkpoint revision, access terms, provenance, and license.
Limitations¶
- No integration-specific checkpoint limitation is registered. Verify the selected checkpoint revision and its documented runtime requirements.
- Validate memory, precision, and optional dependencies on the target system.
- Public optimizations fail closed when the runtime or hardware cannot satisfy their validation contract; an unavailable pass is not reported as applied.
- Contract tests do not replace the linked released-checkpoint evidence.
