## Choose when

### Choose AudioGPT if…

- License: AudioGPT is Other, EmotiVoice is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to AudioGPT: audio, gpt, music, sound.
- - Utilize AudioGPT when you need to generate speech or music with specific style transfer capabilities using GenerSpeech.

### Choose EmotiVoice if…

- License: EmotiVoice is Apache-2.0, AudioGPT is Other.
- Tags unique to EmotiVoice: ai, deep-learning, emotion, multispeaker.
- EmotiVoice ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you need a TTS solution capable of handling multiple speaker voices in a single project

## When NOT to use AudioGPT

- - Avoid AudioGPT if your audio processing toolkit needs to be exclusively self-contained; some model references are external links requiring separate access.
- - Do not use for projects that absolutely need completed features for all tasks as certain capabilities (speech translation) are still work-in-progress.

## When NOT to use EmotiVoice

- For setups without access to an NVidia GPU, as EmotiVoice requires one for running its Docker image
- When deploying applications that have strict latency requirements and cannot accommodate the startup time of a Docker container or the processing demands of GPU computations
