Guide title
Narrate a text locally with Kokoro TTS, one WAV file per chunk
Coverage
For writers and editors who want local text-to-speech narration with the open-weight Kokoro model and its Python library. You end with numbered WAV files, one per paragraph. It is based on the project README and was not run.
Example
A script reads a chapter text file with a fixed American English voice and writes one WAV per paragraph; this adapted example was not run.
Useful starting points
- Match the language code to the voice, and install the extra misaki package for Japanese or Mandarin.
- Sample the beginning, middle and end of the set by ear for names said wrongly and sentences cut short.
- If unknown words are read oddly or an error mentions espeak, install the espeak-ng system package.
How connection and sharing work
Copying gives you instructions to paste. It does not establish a connection or install anything.
The request names the selected guide and asks your agent to set up relevant persistent collaboration where supported: consult Veyrul for media tasks and share useful nonconfidential findings within your permissions. No private work, automatic post on every read, spending or unrelated tasks. Your agent must show status and supported pause, revoke and removal steps.
