Hi. I dont know where to post this, this is the closest sub I can think of. So if this post should be in any other sub please do tell me.

So I want to generate a WAV file from text for a personal project and I am thinking of using Tortoise TTS for this and I am following the guide from the github page.

I am doing this using Conda (miniconda) and have installed pytorch. I am running on AMD integrated graphics system with windows 11 so I use that install path.

I have completed installing the requirements.txt file. And completed the setup python file installation. And on running this command -

(tortoise) C:\Users\KIIT\tortoise-tts-main>python tortoise/do_tts.py --text "I'm going to speak this" --voice random --preset fast

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "tortoise/do_tts.py", line 7, in

from api import TextToSpeech, MODELS_DIR

File "C:\Users\KIIT\tortoise-tts-main\tortoise\api.py", line 9, in

import progressbar

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'progressbar'

​

This is the error I get. Can anyone suggest why this is coming and how to resolve this?

This post is to ask for help regarding a personal project of mine.

So as a heads up, I'm very new to Machine Learning. I mostly a engaged in development stuff. But recently I took on a project where I have to convert text to lip-synced video file.

I need to first generate a WAV file from text. For that, Im looking for a TTS software. I just want a somewhat human-like voice for my project so I am not looking for a very high-quality voice.

I tried to use Tortoise TTS but I failed during the installation process and I can't find a good enough tutorial I can follow. Also, it seems Tortoise and many other AI tools work with a NVIDIA GPU which I don't have (I got a system with AMD integrated graphics). So does anyone have a tutorial or suggestion how to install tortoise?

Or do you have any suggestion for any other TTS to use?
