Experimental

TTS Pause Map​

For any TTS model, you can configure artificial pauses (in milliseconds) to delay playback between sentences. The Pause Map gives you more fine-grained control over these delays. However, it's not currently available in the UI, you'll need to edit it manually in the settings file.

How to configure​

The easiest way to access the settings file:

  • Open the Test TTS View
  • Click the ... menu while a model is loaded
  • This will show you the file location and allow you to reload it after editing (Note: once you are satisfied with the pauses, restart the app to cleanly reload the settings)

Example configuration​

Add a Pauses section to your existing config:

{
  "PauseTimeMs": 0,

  "Pauses": {
    ".": 500,
    ",": 100,
    ":": 200
  }
}

Notes​

  • All values are in milliseconds
  • You can define pauses for specific punctuation marks
  • Currently, you cannot define custom sentence-splitting characters

Supported characters​

You can assign pause values to any of the following (Split Mode Simple):

'.', '!', '?', '*', ',', '\n', ':', ';', '—', '–'
