What is Breeze TTS 2
Breeze TTS 2 is a new-generationspeech synthesismodel from BreezeBlue. It supports zero-shot character voice design through natural language and precise control of performance details such as emotion, speaking rate, and accent with natural language instructions. The model-side latency is as low as 40ms, and it ranks first globally in all three authoritative evaluations: Voice Design, Voice Direction, and Latency. It supports 50+ languages.
Main Features of Breeze TTS 2
-
Voice Design: Create unique character voices from scratch by describing characteristics such as age, temperament, and personality in natural language, without relying on a preset voice library.
-
Voice Direction: Precisely control emotion, speaking rate, accent, physiological state, and dynamic performance changes with natural language instructions while maintaining the character's voice identity consistency.
-
Ultra-Low Latency Real-Time Generation: The model-side first-byte latency is as low as 40ms and supports WebSocket streaming, meeting the needs of real-time conversation and interaction.
-
Multilingual Coverage: Supports more than 50 languages, maintaining voice naturalness, character consistency, and performance control in cross-lingual scenarios.
Technical Principles of Breeze TTS 2
- Large Language Model Paradigm Shift: Breeze TTS 2 follows the LLM technical approach, transferring the language model's generalization ability, instruction-following ability, and Scaling Law to the field of voice generation, enabling the speech model to understand complex character settings and context.
- Long Dialogue-Oriented Data Strategy: The team collected real long dialogue data from films and television, short dramas, interviews, and podcasts, with emphasis on annotating character relationships, emotional tension, turn-taking rhythm, and pause intent, so that the model learns how humans express themselves in complex interactions rather than standardized reading of text.
- Scenario-Driven Evaluation System Reconstruction: After discovering that academic Benchmarks were disconnected from creators' actual needs, the team rebuilt evaluation standards around the two core stages of voice design and voice direction, and open-sourced the corresponding Benchmark, using cross-scenario character consistency and continuous change capability as the basis for model iteration.
- End-to-End Unified Architecture: Integrates voice design, voice direction, and low-latency streaming generation into a single model, achieving character creation, performance control, and real-time response through a unified inference pipeline, avoiding the latency and consistency loss caused by stitching multiple modules together.
How to Use Breeze TTS 2
-
BreezeCreator Web Platform: Visit the BreezeCreator platform official website https://breezeblue.ai/app,用自然语言描述角色特征设计专属音色,再通过自然语言指令调整情绪与表演,直接生成音频内容。
-
HTTP API Calls: After developers obtain an API Key, they submit text and voice/performance parameters through standard HTTP interfaces to obtain synthesized speech files, suitable for batch content production.
-
WebSocket Real-Time API: Establish a persistent WebSocket connection to append text in real time and receive raw PCM audio in a streaming manner, suitable for low-latency interaction scenarios such as virtual streamers, game NPCs, and AI Agents.
-
SDK Integration: Use the official JavaScript/TypeScript SDK for quick integration. With just a few lines of code, you can create real-time voice sessions, manage conversation turns, and play audio.
