Neural text-to-speech (TTS) can provide quality close to natural speech if an adequate amount of high-quality speech material is available for training. However, acquiring speech data for TTS training is costly and time-consuming, especially if the goal is to generate different speaking styles. In this work, we show that we can transfer speaking style across speakers and improve the quality of synthetic speech by training a multi-speaker multi-style (MSMS) model with long-form recordings, in addition to regular TTS recordings. In particular, we show that 1) multi-speaker modeling improves the…Apple Machine Learning Research
