Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-Base
Qwen3-TTS Technical Report | GitHub Repository | Hugging Face Demo
Qwen3-TTS is a family of advanced multilingual, controllable, robust, and streaming text-to-speech models. Trained on over 5 million hours of speech data spanning 10 languages, Qwen3-TTS supports state-of-the-art 3-second voice cloning and description-based control.
This specific checkpoint is the 0.6B Base model, which is capable of rapid voice cloning from a user-provided audio input.
Quickstart
Installation
pip install -U qwen-tts
# Optional: for optimized performance
pip install -U flash-attn --no-build-isolation
Sample Usage (Voice Clone)
To clone a voice and synthesize new content using the Base model, you can use the following code snippet:
import torch
import soundfile as sf
from qwen_tts import Qwen3TTSModel
# Load the model
model = Qwen3TTSModel.from_pretrained(
"Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-Base",
device_map="cuda:0",
dtype=torch.bfloat16,
attn_implementation="flash_attention_2",
)
# Reference audio for cloning
ref_audio = "https://qianwen-res.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/Qwen3-TTS-Repo/clone.wav"
ref_text = "Okay. Yeah. I resent you. I love you. I respect you. But you know what? You blew it! And thanks to you."
# Generate speech
wavs, sr = model.generate_voice_clone(
text="I am solving the equation: x = [-b ± √(b²-4ac)] / 2a? Nobody can — it's a disaster (◍•͈⌔•͈◍), very sad!",
language="English",
ref_audio=ref_audio,
ref_text=ref_text,
)
# Save the resulting audio
sf.write("output_voice_clone.wav", wavs[0], sr)
Overview
Introduction
Qwen3-TTS covers 10 major languages (Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian) as well as multiple dialectal voice profiles to meet global application needs. Key features:
- Powerful Speech Representation: Powered by the self-developed Qwen3-TTS-Tokenizer-12Hz, it achieves efficient acoustic compression and high-dimensional semantic modeling.
- Universal End-to-End Architecture: Utilizing a discrete multi-codebook LM architecture, it realizes full-information end-to-end speech modeling.
- Extreme Low-Latency Streaming Generation: End-to-end synthesis latency as low as 97ms, meeting the rigorous demands of real-time interactive scenarios.
- Intelligent Text Understanding and Voice Control: Supports speech generation driven by natural language instructions, allowing for flexible control over multi-dimensional acoustic attributes.
