mlx-e2-tts

E2 TTS — MLX

Implementation of E2-TTS, Embarrassingly Easy Fully Non-Autoregressive Zero-Shot TTS, with the MLX framework.

This implementation is based on the lucidrains implementation in Pytorch, which differs from the paper in that it uses a multistream transformer for text and audio, with conditioning done every transformer block.

Installation

pip install mlx-e2-tts

Usage

import mlx.core as mx

from e2_tts_mlx.model import E2TTS
from e2_tts_mlx.trainer import E2Trainer
from e2_tts_mlx.data import load_libritts_r

e2tts = E2TTS(
    tokenizer="char-utf8",  # or "phoneme_en"
    cond_drop_prob = 0.25,
    frac_lengths_mask = (0.7, 0.9),
    transformer = dict(
        dim = 1024,
        depth = 24,
        heads = 16,
        text_depth = 12,
        text_heads = 8,
        text_ff_mult = 4,
        max_seq_len = 4096,
        dropout = 0.1
    )
)
mx.eval(e2tts.parameters())

batch_size = 128
max_duration = 30

dataset = load_libritts_r(split="dev-clean")  # or any audio/caption dataset

trainer = E2Trainer(model = e2tts, num_warmup_steps = 1000)

trainer.train(
    train_dataset = ...,
    learning_rate = 7.5e-5,
    batch_size = batch_size,
    total_steps = 1_000_000
)

... after much training ...

cond = ...
text = ...
duration = ...  # from a trained DurationPredictor or otherwise

generated_audio = e2tts.sample(
    cond = cond,
    text = text,
    duration = duration,
    steps = 32,
    cfg_strength = 1.0,  # if trained for cfg
    use_vocos = True  # set to False to get mel spectrograms instead of audio
)

Note the model size specified above (from the paper) is very large. See train_example.py for a more practical-sized model you can train on your local device.

Appreciation

lucidrains for the original implementation in Pytorch.
