TTS: Added Kokoro v1, Parler Large, LlaSa 3B & MARS 6 TTS models to the Arena.
Pendrokar/TTS-Spaces-Arena

Also had added MaskGCT, GPT-SoVITS & OuteTTS a month ago. OuteTTS devs did say that is too early for it to be added to TTS Arenas.

Mars 5 does have a space with open weights models, but inference is way too slow (2 minutes+).

TTS: Sorry, I just cannot get the hype behind F5 TTS. It has now gathered a thousand votes in the TTS Arena fork and **has remained in #8 spot** against the _mostly_ Open TTS adversaries.

The voice sample used is the same as XTTS. F5 has so far been unstable, being unemotional/monotone/depressed and mispronouncing words (_awestruck_).

If you have suggestions please give feedback in the following thread:

Added @amphion MaskGCT & @hexgrad StyleTTS fine tuned model by the name of kokoro to the forked TTS Arena Space. If things keep up from what is seen in the preliminary results, then these two may end up in the TOP 5 of all TTS models. 🤞️🍀️

hexgrad/Kokoro-TTS

I chose @Svngoku 's forked HF space over amphion's due to the overly high ZeroGPU duration demand on the latter. 300s!

amphion/maskgct

Had to remove @mrfakename 's MetaVoice-1B Space from the available models as that space has been down for quite some time. 🤕️

mrfakename/MetaVoice-1B-v0.1

I'm close to syncing the code to the original Arena's code structure. Then I'd like to use ASR in order to validate and create synthetic public datasets from the generated samples. And then make the Arena multilingual, which will surely attract quite the crowd!

How the 🗣🏆 leaderboard of a merged TTS Arena with the 🤗 Spaces fork would look like. These results are somewhat unreliable as some models have not challenged the other in the list. And the original TTS Arena used only narration type sentences.

Made a notable change to the TTS Arena fork. I do not think anyone is interested in which bottomfeeder TTS is better than another beside it. So one of the top 5 TTS is always chosen in a challenge for more scrutiny. Also these top 5 are taken from preliminary results.
