I opened a couple of PRs to fix this situation:

https://github.com/KittenML/KittenTTS/pull/21 https://github.com/KittenML/KittenTTS/pull/24 https://github.com/KittenML/KittenTTS/pull/25

If you have `uv` installed, you can try my merged ref that has all of these PRs (and #22, a fix for short generation being trimmed unnecessarily) with

    uvx --from git+https://github.com/akx/KittenTTS.git@pr-21-22-24-25 kittentts --output output.wav --text "This high quality TTS model works without a GPU"

Thanks for the quick intro into UV, it looks like docker layers for python

I found the TTS a bit slow so I piped the output into ffplay with 1.2x speedup to make it sound a bit better

   uvx --from git+https://github.com/akx/KittenTTS.git@pr-21-22-24-25 kittentts --text "I serve 12 different beers at my restaurant for over 1000000 customers" --voice expr-voice-3-m --output - | ffplay -af "atempo=1.2" -f wav -

Ah, yeah, good catch – I added the model-native speed multiplier to the CLI too (`--speed=1.2` for instance).
