Lobe TTS

A high-quality & reliable TTS/STT library for Server and Browser

Changelog · Report Bug · Request Feature

🤖 Lobe Chat supports Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Speech-to-Text (STT) technologies, enabling our application to convert text messages into clear voice outputs, allowing users to interact with our conversational agent as if they were talking to a real person. Users can choose from a variety of voices to pair with the agent.

In the process of implementing this feature, we found that there was no satisfactory TTS (Text-to-Speech) frontend library available on the market. As a result, we invested a lot of effort, including data conversion, audio progress management, and speech visualization, among other tasks.

run the script below use Bun: bun index.js

// index.js
import { EdgeSpeechTTS } from '@lobehub/tts';
import { Buffer } from 'buffer';
import fs from 'fs';
import path from 'path';

// Instantiate EdgeSpeechTTS
const tts = new EdgeSpeechTTS({ locale: 'en-US' });

// Create speech synthesis request payload
const payload = {
  input: 'This is a speech demonstration',
  options: {
    voice: 'en-US-GuyNeural',
  },
};

// Call create method to synthesize speech
const response = await tts.create(payload);

// generate speech file
const mp3Buffer = Buffer.from(await response.arrayBuffer());
const speechFile = path.resolve('./speech.mp3');

fs.writeFileSync(speechFile, mp3Buffer);

// import at the top of the file
import WebSocket from 'ws';

global.WebSocket = WebSocket;

import { AudioPlayer, AudioVisualizer, useAudioPlayer } from '@lobehub/tts/react';

export default () => {
  const { ref, isLoading, ...audio } = useAudioPlayer(url);

  return (
    <Flexbox align={'center'} gap={8}>
      <AudioPlayer audio={audio} isLoading={isLoading} style={{ width: '100%' }} />
      <AudioVisualizer audioRef={ref} isLoading={isLoading} />
    </Flexbox>
  );
};
