Vocoder with HiFIGAN trained on LibriTTS

This repository provides all the necessary tools for using a HiFIGAN vocoder trained with LibriTTS (with multiple speakers). The sample rate used for the vocoder is 16000 Hz.

The pre-trained model takes in input a spectrogram and produces a waveform in output. Typically, a vocoder is used after a TTS model that converts an input text into a spectrogram.

Alternatives to this models are the following:

• tts-hifigan-libritts-22050Hz (same model trained on the same dataset, but for a sample rate of 22050 Hz)
• tts-hifigan-ljspeech (same model trained on LJSpeech for a sample rate of 22050 Hz).

Install SpeechBrain

pip install speechbrain

Please notice that we encourage you to read our tutorials and learn more about SpeechBrain .

Using the Vocoder

import torch
from speechbrain.pretrained import HIFIGAN
hifi_gan = HIFIGAN.from_hparams(source="speechbrain/tts-hifigan-libritts-16kHz", savedir="tmpdir")
mel_specs = torch.rand(2, 80,298)

# Running Vocoder (spectrogram-to-waveform)
waveforms = hifi_gan.decode_batch(mel_specs)

Inference on GPU

To perform inference on the GPU, add run_opts={"device":"cuda"} when calling the from_hparams method.

Training

The model was trained with SpeechBrain. To train it from scratch follow these steps:

git clone https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/

cd speechbrain
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

cd recipes/LibriTTS/vocoder/hifigan/
python train.py hparams/train.yaml --data_folder=/path/to/LibriTTS_data_destination --sample_rate=16000

To change the sample rate for model training go to the "recipes/LibriTTS/vocoder/hifigan/hparams/train.yaml" file and change the value for sample_rate as required. The training logs and checkpoints are available here .
