Neural HD
About Microsoft Neural HD
Text-to-speech (TTS) is a technology that converts written text into spoken audio, enabling computers and digital devices to "read" text aloud. It is also known as speech synthesis, read aloud technology, or computer-generated speech.
Microsoft Neural HD is a Microsoft model available on Eden AI for Text to Speech, from $30 / 1M characters. Call it with the same API key as every other Eden AI model by sending its model string to the Universal AI endpoint, with processing in Europe.
Tasks and prices
Microsoft Neural HD is available on Eden AI for 1 tasks. Each task has its own model string and price: send that string to the Universal AI endpoint to use the model for that task.
Parameters
What you send and what you get back when you call Microsoft Neural HD through Eden AI. The same fields work with every model of the same task, so you can switch model without changing your code.
Input
- text (required): text. Text to convert to speech
- voice: text. Voice to synthesize with: a voice `id` or `name` from `GET /v3/info/audio/tts/voices?model=...`, matched case-insensitively. Omit it to use the model's default
- speed: float. Speed multiplier for speech synthesis
- audio_format: text. Desired audio format (e.g., 'mp3', 'wav')
- speaking_pitch: number. Increase or decrease the speaking pitch by a percentage from -100% to 100%, 0 is normal.
- speaking_volume: number. Increase or decrease the audio volume by a percentage from -100% to 100%, 0 is normal.
Response
- audio_resource_url
