A Transformer predicts tokens from neural audio codecs (EnCodec, DAC, X-Codec) to convert expressive drum grids into audio, trained and evaluated on the E-GMD dataset using objective metrics.
JaiTTS-v1.0 achieves 1.94% CER on short Thai speech, beating human ground truth of 1.98%, matches humans on long speech, and wins 283 of 400 human comparisons against commercial systems.
