larynx 1.1.0

Larynx is a speech synthesis system that focuses on providing lightweight and privacy-focused text-to-speech (TTS) capabilities. Larynx is built with the aim of offering an offline TTS solution, meaning it does not require an internet connection for speech synthesis.

The project utilizes the Tacotron 2 and WaveGlow models, which are well-known neural network architectures for generating human-like speech from text. Larynx provides pre-trained models for different languages, enabling users to convert text into speech in their preferred language.

Larynx offers a straightforward API and command-line interface (CLI) for integrating the TTS functionality into various applications. It allows developers to generate high-quality speech from text strings programmatically, enabling applications to provide natural and intelligible audio output.
