The model will attempt to match the voice characteristics **Requirements for voice samples:** - Clear audio with minimal background noise - Minimum 3–10 seconds. Recommended at least 30 seconds for better quality - Automatically resampled to 24kHz ## 🎨 LoRA Support ### Overview Starting from version 1.4.0, VibeVoice ComfyUI supports custom LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) adapters for fine-tuning voice characteristics. This allows you to train and use specialized voice models while maintaining the base VibeVoice capabilities. ### Setting Up LoRA Adapters 1. **LoRA Directory Structure**: Place your LoRA adapter folders in: `ComfyUI/models/vibevoice/loras/` ``` ComfyUI/ └── models/ └── vibevoice/ └── loras/ ├── my_custom_voice/ │ ├── adapter_config.json │ ├── adapter_model.safetensors │ └── diffusion_head/ (optional) ├── character_voice/ └── style_adaptation/ ``` 2. **Required Files**: - `adapter_config.json`: LoRA configuration - `adapter_model.safetensors` or `adapter_model.bin`: Model weights - Optional components: - `diffusion_head/`: Custom diffusion head weights - `acoustic_connector/`: Acoustic connector adaptation - `semantic_connector/`: Semantic connector adaptation ### Using LoRA in ComfyUI 1. **Add VibeVoice LoRA Node**: - Create a "VibeVoice LoRA" node in your workflow - Select your LoRA from the dropdown menu - Configure component settings and strength 2. **Connect to Speaker Nodes**: - Connect the LoRA node's output to the `lora` input of speaker nodes - Both Single Speaker and Multiple Speakers nodes support LoRA 3. **LoRA Parameters**: - **llm_strength**: Controls the influence of the language model LoRA (0.0-2.0) - **Component toggles**: Enable/disable specific LoRA components - Select "None" to disable LoRA and use the base model ### Training Your Own LoRA To create custom LoRA adapters for VibeVoice, use the official fine-tuning repository: - **Repository**: [VibeVoice Fine-tuning](https://github.com/voicepowered-ai/VibeVoice-finetuning) - **Features**: - Parameter-efficient fine-tuning - Support for custom datasets - Adjustable LoRA rank and scaling - Optional diffusion head adaptation ### Best Practices - **Voice Consistency**: Use the same LoRA across all chunks for long texts - **Memory Management**: LoRA adds minimal memory overhead (~100-500MB) - **Compatibility**: LoRA adapters are compatible with all VibeVoice model variants - **Strength Tuning**: Start with default strength (1.0) and adjust based on results ### Compatibility Note ⚠️ **Transformers Version**: The LoRA implementation was developed and tested with `transformers==4.51.3`. While our wrapper supports `transformers>=4.51.3`, LoRA functionality with newer versions of transformers is not guaranteed. If you experience issues with LoRA loading, consider using `transformers==4.51.3` specifically: ```bash pip install transformers==4.51.3 ``` ### 🙏 Credits LoRA implementation by [@jpgallegoar](https://github.com/jpgallegoar) (PR #127) ## 🎚️ Voice Speed Control ### Overview The Voice Speed Control feature allows you to influence the speaking rate of generated speech by adjusting the speed of the reference voice. This feature modifies the input voice sample before processing, causing the model to learn and reproduce the altered speech rate. **Available from version 1.5.0** ### How It Works The system applies time-stretching to the reference voice audio: - Values < 1.0 slow down the reference voice, resulting in slower generated speech - Values > 1.0 speed up the reference voice, resulting in faster generated speech - The model learns from the modified voice characteristics and generates speech at a similar pace ### Usage - **Parameter**: `voice_speed_factor` - **Range**: 0.8 to 1.2 - **Default**: 1.0 (normal speed) - **Step**: 0.01 (1% increments) ### Recommended Settings - **Optimal Range**: 0.95 to 1.05 for natural-sounding results - **Slower Speech**: Try 0.95 (5% slower) or 0.97 (3% slower) - **Faster Speech**: Try 1.03 (3% faster) or 1.05 (5% faster) - **Best Results**: Provide reference audio of at least 20 seconds for more accurate speed matching ### Important Notes - The effect works best with longer reference audio samples (20+ seconds recommended) - Extreme values (< 0.9 or > 1.1) may produce unnatural-sounding speech - In Multi Speaker mode, the speed adjustment applies to all speakers equally - Synthetic voices (when no audio is provided) are not affected by this parameter ### 📖 Examples ``` # Single Speaker voice_speed_factor: 0.95 # Slightly slower, more deliberate speech voice_speed_factor: 1.05 # Slightly faster, more energetic speech # Multi Speaker voice_speed_factor: 0.98 # All speakers talk 2% slower voice_speed_factor: 1.02 # All speakers talk 2% faster ``` ## ⏸️ Pause Tags Support ### Overview The VibeVoice wrapper includes a custom pause tag feature that allows you to insert silences between text segments. **This is NOT a standard Microsoft VibeVoice feature** - it's an original implementation of our wrapper to provide more control over speech pacing. **Available from version 1.3.0** ### Usage You can use two types of pause tags in your text: - `[pause]` - Inserts a 1-second silence (default) - `[pause:ms]` - Inserts a custom duration silence in milliseconds (e.g., `[pause:2000]` for 2 seconds) ### 📖 Examples #### Single Speaker ``` Welcome to our presentation. [pause] Today we'll explore artificial intelligence. [pause:500] Let's begin! ``` #### Multi-Speaker ``` [1]: Hello everyone [pause] how are you doing today? [2]: I'm doing great! [pause:500] Thanks for asking. [1]: Wonderful to hear! ``` ### Important Notes ⚠️ **Context Limitation Warning**: > **Note: The pause forces the text to be split into chunks. This may worsen the model's ability to understand the context. The model's context is represented ONLY by its own chunk.** This means: - Text before a pause and text after a pause are processed separately - The model cannot see across pause boundaries when generating speech - This may affect prosody and intonation consistency - This may affect prosody and intonation consistency ### How It Works 1. The wrapper parses your text to find pause tags 2. Text segments between pauses are processed independently 3. Silence audio is generated for each pause duration 4. All audio segments (speech and silence) are concatenated ### Best Practices - Use pauses at natural breaking points (end of sentences, paragraphs) - Avoid pauses in the middle of phrases where context is important - Test different pause durations to find what sounds most natural ## 💡 Tips for Best Results 1. **Text Preparation**: - Use proper punctuation for natural pauses - Break long texts into paragraphs - For multi-speaker, ensure clear speaker transitions - Use pause tags sparingly to maintain context continuity 2. **Model Selection**: - Use 1.5B for quick single-speaker tasks (fastest, ~8GB VRAM) - Use Large for absolute best quality (~20GB VRAM) - Use Large-Q8 for production quality with 12GB VRAM (perfect audio, 38% smaller) - Use Large-Quant-4Bit for maximum VRAM savings (~7GB VRAM) 3. **Seed Management**: - Default seed (42) works well for most cases - Save good seeds for consistent character voices - Try random seeds if default doesn't work well 4. **Performance**: - First run downloads models (5-17GB) - Subsequent runs use cached models - GPU recommended for faster inference ## 💻 System Requirements ### Hardware - **Minimum**: 8GB VRAM for VibeVoice-1.5B - **Recommended**: 17GB+ VRAM for VibeVoice-Large - **RAM**: 16GB+ system memory ### Software - Python 3.8+ - PyTorch 2.0+ - CUDA 11.8+ (for GPU acceleration) - Transformers 4.51.3+ - ComfyUI (latest version) ## 🔧 Troubleshooting ### Installation Issues - Ensure you're using ComfyUI's Python environment - Try manual installation if automatic fails - Restart ComfyUI after installation ### Generation Issues - If voices sound unstable, try deterministic mode - For multi-speaker, ensure text has proper `[N]:` format - Check that speaker numbers are sequential (1,2,3 not 1,3,5) ### Memory Issues - Large model requires ~16GB VRAM - Use 1.5B model for lower VRAM systems - Models use bfloat16 precision for efficiency ## 📖 Examples ### Single Speaker ``` Text: "Welcome to our presentation. Today we'll explore the fascinating world of artificial intelligence." Model: [Select from available models] cfg_scale: 1.3 use_sampling: False ``` ### Two Speakers ``` [1]: Have you seen the new AI developments? [2]: Yes, they're quite impressive! [1]: I think voice synthesis has come a long way. [2]: Absolutely, it sounds so natural now. ``` ### Four Speaker Conversation ``` [1]: Welcome everyone to our meeting. [2]: Thanks for having us! [3]: Glad to be here. [4]: Looking forward to the discussion. [1]: Let's begin with the agenda. ``` ## 📊 Performance Benchmarks | Model | VRAM Usage | Context Length | Max Audio Duration | |--------------------|------------|----------------|-------------------| | VibeVoice-1.5B | ~6GB | 64K tokens | ~90 minutes | | VibeVoice-Large | ~20GB | 32K tokens | ~45 minutes | | VibeVoice-Large-Q8 | ~12GB | 32K tokens | ~45 minutes | | VibeVoice-Large-Q4 | ~8GB | 32K tokens | ~45 minutes | ## ⚠️ Known Limitations - Maximum 4 speakers in multi-speaker mode - Works best with English and Chinese text - Some seeds may produce unstable output - Background music generation cannot be directly controlled ## 📄 License This ComfyUI wrapper is released under the MIT License.
