Speech Studio — I open-sourced a local voice cloning Mac app (free, no API keys) (self.SideProject)<br>submitted 7 minutes ago by ivan_digital

Just open-sourced Speech Studio — a Mac app for voice cloning and multi-speaker dialog generation, runs entirely on-device on Apple Silicon. No API keys, no cloud, no per-character billing.

Drop a reference clip → cloned voice. Drop another → second voice.<br>Write a multi-speaker scene with inline emotion markers like (whispering) or (intense). Hit Synthesize.

30-sec A/B/C blind test vs ElevenLabs: https://youtu.be/EuIU8tOWyzg

(Same voice, three takes — real, Speech Studio local, ElevenLabs cloud.)

macOS 15+ on M1/M2/M3/M4

In the comments — feedback welcome, especially on the cloning quality.
