VibeVoice: A Frontier Open-Source Text-to-Speech Model

I'm really hoping one day there will be TTS does that does really nice British accents - I've surveyed them all deeply, none do.

Most that claim to do a British accent end up sounding like Kelsey Grammer - sort of an American accent pretending to be British.

I'd like one that really nails Brummie.

I’m just a yank, but a lot of the AI-voiced videos on YouTube that I’ve been listening to while I’m falling asleep lately have British voices that sound quite nice to me.
