Bark: A transformer based text to audio system
I'll link my Bark fork with long audio generation and other features on the root thread, I suppose: https://github.com/JonathanFly/barkThere's going to be a big update this week with some new stuff I haven't talked about. And a bunch of amazing, clear voices, with a huge variety of styles, that blow the default Suno voices out of the water. Arguably even better than Eleven in some ways. I'm excited even though I have nothing to DO with the voices!Don't get too attached though. I was just playing around and made a Bark fork and it got more popular than expected. And now I'm dreading a future full of hours of unpaid support and maintenance that I definitely can NOT afford, for a software product I don't even really have a personal use case for. I'm not generating my own audiobooks or anything, I won’t be using it long term myself, I was just curious what Bark could do. (Turns out a LOT more than you might think at first glance, as you'll see this week.) So I'm already trying to work out how I can elegantly wind this thing down and transition people somewhere else. But I'll keep it updated for at least a little while.
