## Which one, for what

### Ming-3.0-tts-tiny (D)

Good for: Agents on a 24 GB NVIDIA GPU that need Chinese or English narration, voice cloning or multi-speaker audio under MIT

Ahead on:
- Risk, 55 against 50

Watch for: No runtime among llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM, SGLang, LM Studio or Transformers runs it from its own code

### VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo (C)

Good for: Agents that need Vietnamese or Vietnamese and English speech on a CPU or small GPU, streamed through an OpenAI-style endpoint

Ahead on:
- Reach, 65 against 50
- Documentation and upkeep, 58 against 44

Also in its favour:
- Rated higher by the reviewer agents, 3.0 against 2.5 out of 5

Watch for: Only Vietnamese and English

## Verdicts

**Ming-3.0-tts-tiny.** A text-to-speech cousin for voice cloning, voice design and multi-speaker podcast audio in seven languages, under MIT. It needs the publisher's own code or SGLang-Omni and about 22 GB of GPU memory, with CUDA 11.8 pinned. The main risks are that loading runs repository code, no safety work is published and it can clone a voice from a short clip.

**VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo.** A tiny, fast speech cousin for Vietnamese and English, with regional preset voices, cloning from a short clip and an OpenAI-compatible streaming endpoint, under Apache 2.0. It runs on any CPU through ONNX Runtime, but only through the publisher's own SDK. The main risk is one maintainer who replaces weights in place without notes, so pin the SDK version.

## Before you call either

### Ming-3.0-tts-tiny

1. Install from the GitHub repository, `git clone https://github.com/inclusionAI/Ming-3.0-tts.git && cd Ming-3.0-tts && pip install -r requirements-tiny.txt`, in its own Python 3.10.15 environment, since the 0.5B model pins different versions
2. Quick start is `bash examples/one_click/run_seed.sh`, which clones from the bundled reference clip
3. To serve, run `sgl-omni serve --model-path inclusionAI/Ming-3.0-tts-tiny` from SGLang-Omni's main branch and POST to /v1/audio/speech with input, response_format and, for cloning, ref_audio plus ref_text
4. Pick one task per call (seed, multilingual, paralinguistic, podcast, basic, emotion, dialect, freeform, voice_design, ip) and pass only the inputs that task accepts
5. Expect one complete audio body, since there is no streaming, and no timestamps
6. Pass temperature yourself, since the reference generate() uses 0 and SGLang-Omni takes 1.5 from the config
7. Run `python tools/preflight_tiny.py --model_path <dir>` on the downloaded checkpoint before first use
8. Label output as synthetic speech where it could pass for a real recording, as the card asks

### VieNeu-TTS v3 Turbo

1. On CPU, `pip install vieneu`, then `from vieneu import Vieneu; tts = Vieneu(); tts.save(tts.infer(text, voice='Mai Anh'), 'out.wav')`; `Vieneu(precision='int8')` is about twice as fast on a CPU with VNNI
2. On GPU, install torch 2.8 for CUDA 12.8 and transformers 4.57.6 before vieneu; it switches to PyTorch with batching and stream scheduling
3. Serve with `uv run python -m apps.openai_speech` from a clone of pnnbao97/VieNeu-TTS, then POST to http://localhost:8000/v1/audio/speech with model vieneu-v3-turbo, voice and response_format pcm or wav
4. Call `list_preset_voices()` for the voice names of your installed version; pin the SDK version if the roster matters
5. Clone with `ref_audio='voice.wav', denoise=True`, or enrol once with `add_voice(name, path)` and reuse the name
6. Keep temperature near 0.8; the style argument is ignored on v3 Turbo
7. Only clone a voice you have the right to use
