Decision brief
WaveRNN is a Python-based neural vocoder that can generate high-quality speech from text when used with TTS models like Tacotron.
Good fit when
- When you require a compact and efficient method to produce natural-sounding speech synthesis, specifically with the need for high fidelity in audio quality.
- If your project already utilizes PyTorch, leveraging WaveRNN can streamline integration due to its dependency on this framework.
Avoid when
- Avoid using when you need extensive customization of the vocoder parameters, since it is optimized for specific configurations and might not offer the level of tweakability other frameworks provide.
- Not recommended if your setup does not support CUDA, as WaveRNN requires PyTorch with CUDA for execution.
- Requirements:
- Python version must be equal to or higher than 3.6; Pytorch 1 with CUDA support is a prerequisite
