this is the best tts ive heard, the voice modulates as you'd expect a human to.

Thanks a lot. :)

We are constantly working on these models and we push new versions every two months or so. It should get even better soon. :)

Not to step on any toes here (I've starred whisperspeech b/c it really is amazing and I intend to use it), but you should also check out Tortoise [1]. IMO the quality is a little better (for now) but it is painfully slow, even with KV caching it doesn't quite get up to real time on my 4090 except with very short snippets.
