# mlx-community/chatterbox-6bit
This model was converted to MLX format from [`ResembleAI/chatterbox`](https://huggingface.co/ResembleAI/chatterbox) using mlx-audio version **0.2.7**.
Refer to the [original model card](https://huggingface.co/ResembleAI/chatterbox) for more details on the model.

## Use with mlx

```bash
pip install -U mlx-audio
```

### CLI Example:
```bash
python -m mlx_audio.tts.generate --model mlx-community/chatterbox-6bit --text "Hello, this is a test."
```
### Python Example:
```python
from mlx_audio.tts.utils import load_model
from mlx_audio.tts.generate import generate_audio
model = load_model("mlx-community/chatterbox-6bit")
generate_audio(
    model=model, text="Hello, this is a test.",
    file_prefix="test_audio",
)
```

### Voice Cloning: 
```python
from mlx_audio.tts.generate import generate_audio

generate_audio(
    text="Hello, this is a test of Chatterbox TTS.",
    model="mlx-community/chatterbox-6bit",
    ref_audio="path_to_file.wav",
    ref_text="Text transcript", # Optional
    file_prefix="vc_output",
)
```

## Multilingual Quickstart

Generate speech in 23 languages by specifying the `lang_code` parameter. The model automatically handles pronunciation, intonation, and language-specific phonemes.

```python
from mlx_audio.tts.generate import generate_audio

generate_audio(
    text="Olá, tudo bem?",
    model="mlx-community/chatterbox-6bit",
    lang_code="pt",
    file_prefix="multilingual_output",
)
```
