Speech 2.6 Turbo is a speed-focused speech synthesis variant. The manufacturer describes it for voice assistants and interactive scenarios in which text becomes a response incrementally. The model retains the natural intonation of the Speech 2.6 generation and can process specialized written forms.
The model is designed to read dates, phone numbers, monetary amounts, URLs and email addresses without each item first being manually rewritten. This processing is useful in dynamic messages where numbers and notation occur alongside ordinary words. The manufacturer describes handling these formats in several languages.
Speech 2.6 supports Fluent LoRA: retaining recognizable timbre with more fluent delivery. This capability concerns use of an already prepared voice; separate preparation of a clone is not part of an ordinary text request. The family includes 40 languages, including Russian.
Turbo provides seven main emotions and the additional fluent and whisper modes. The model can choose emotional coloration itself from the content or use a specified state. Vocal depth and pace can be changed independently of the text.
MiniMax provides voice selection and control over pace, volume and pitch. Speed ranges from 0.5–2, volume is above 0 and up to 10, and pitch adjustment ranges from −12 to 12. Emotion can be left to the model according to the text's meaning or specified manually: joy, sadness, anger, fear, disgust, surprise or calm.
Pronunciation can be refined using a replacement dictionary and phonetic notation; these provide the International Phonetic Alphabet, Chinese pinyin and Japanese reading variants. Pauses are inserted between spoken passages in the range 0.01–99.99 seconds. Pause duration is specified to two decimal places; markers are placed between spoken passages and not consecutively. These settings help align names, abbreviations and ambiguous words with the intended narration.
Synthesis accepts text of fewer than 10,000 characters. For long text exceeding 3000 characters, the manufacturer recommends streaming output; receiving completed audio in full is also provided. General synthesis settings include MP3, PCM, FLAC, WAV, Opus and G.711 μ-law variants, in mono or stereo; the available formats for a specific request are determined by Ailoot's controls.
In this Ailoot card, text is converted into speech audio. Turbo's purpose concerns synthesis speed, but no fixed response time is promised here; the listed settings reflect manufacturer capabilities and apply within the available access method.
Additional audio settings include sample rates of 8, 16, 22.05, 24, 32 and 44.1 kHz. MP3 provides bitrates of 32, 64, 128 or 256 kbps. Voice coloration can also be changed and one effect applied: spacious echo, hall echo, telephone sound or a robotic voice. Voice-modification effects are supported for MP3, WAV and FLAC when receiving the audio in full, and only for MP3 when streaming. G.711 μ-law formats use an 8 kHz sample rate. These capabilities belong to MiniMax's synthesis settings.
The manufacturer provides speech-text synchronization: sentence timestamps, word timestamps or word timestamps during incremental output. This result helps align speech with displayed text. This additional capability requires support for the corresponding response format.
