- 03
Download and run the model
Run the commands below. The weights download straight from Hugging Face to your machine.
This model is gated: accept its license on Hugging Face and run huggingface-cli login before downloading.
pip install -U transformers accelerate
python -c "from transformers import pipeline; p = pipeline('text-to-speech', model='gradium/phonon-40m-de', device=0); print(p)"Why run it yourself?
Hosted voice services charge per character. On your own GPU long narration costs only the minutes the machine runs.
Questions
- How much GPU memory does phonon-40m-de need?
- By our estimate about 2 GB for inference (50M parameters). Higher resolution, longer context or bigger batches need more.
- How much does it cost to run phonon-40m-de?
- From $0.11 per hour on GTX 1660 S, billed per second. Ten hours cost about $1.10.
- Do I need a subscription?
- No. You pay only for the time your machine runs, from your USD balance. Stop it whenever you are done.
