# Qwen3-TTS for text-to-speech
## Summary
- Vendor: Qwen
- Model: `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice` (and VoiceDesign / Base variants)
- Task: Text-to-speech with predefined voices, voice design, or voice cloning
- Mode: Online serving with the OpenAI-compatible `/v1/audio/speech` API
- Maintainer: Community
## When to use this recipe
Use this recipe when you want a known-good starting point for serving Qwen3-TTS
models with vLLM-Omni and validate the deployment with the existing TTS client
examples in this repository.
Qwen3-TTS supports three task types, each backed by a dedicated model checkpoint:
| Task Type | Model | Description |
| ------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `CustomVoice` | `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice` | Predefined speaker voices with optional style/emotion control |
| `VoiceDesign` | `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-VoiceDesign` | Generate speech from a natural language voice description |
| `Base` | `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base` | Voice cloning from reference audio + transcript |
Smaller 0.6B variants are also available for `CustomVoice` and `Base`.

## Environment
- OS: Linux
- Python: 3.10+
- vLLM / vLLM-Omni: use versions from your current checkout, >=0.20.0
## Command
Start the server from the repository root. Pick the model that matches your
task type:
```bash
# CustomVoice (predefined speakers with optional style control)
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice \
--deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/qwen3_tts.yaml \
--omni --port 8091
# VoiceDesign (natural language voice description)
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-VoiceDesign \
--deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/qwen3_tts.yaml \
--omni --port 8091
# Base (voice cloning from reference audio)
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base \
--deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/qwen3_tts.yaml \
--omni --port 8091
```
Alternatively, use the convenience script:
```bash
./examples/online_serving/qwen3_tts/run_server.sh # Default: CustomVoice
./examples/online_serving/qwen3_tts/run_server.sh VoiceDesign # VoiceDesign
./examples/online_serving/qwen3_tts/run_server.sh Base # Base (voice clone)
```
The bundled deploy config (`vllm_omni/deploy/qwen3_tts.yaml`) enables async
chunking for low first-audio latency. For advanced deployment tuning, pass a
custom deploy config:
```bash
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice \
--deploy-config /path/to/your_qwen3_tts_overrides.yaml \
--omni --port 8091 --trust-remote-code
```
## Verification
**Quick smoke test with curl (CustomVoice):**
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/speech \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": "Hello, how are you?",
"voice": "vivian",
"language": "English"
}' --output output.wav
```
**CustomVoice with emotion instruction:**
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/speech \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": "I am so excited!",
"voice": "vivian",
"instructions": "Speak with great enthusiasm"
}' --output excited.wav
```
**List available voices:**
```bash
curl http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/voices
```
**Using the Python client:**
```bash
cd examples/online_serving/qwen3_tts
# CustomVoice
python openai_speech_client.py \
--text "Hello, how are you?" \
--speaker vivian --language English
# VoiceDesign (requires VoiceDesign model)
python openai_speech_client.py \
--model Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-VoiceDesign \
--task-type VoiceDesign \
--text "Hello world" \
--instructions "A warm, friendly female voice"
# Base / voice clone (requires Base model)
python openai_speech_client.py \
--model Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base \
--task-type Base \
--text "Hello, this is a cloned voice" \
--ref-audio /path/to/reference.wav \
--ref-text "Transcript of the reference audio"
```
**Streaming audio (low latency):**
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/speech \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"input": "Hello, how are you?",
"voice": "vivian",
"language": "English",
"stream": true,
"response_format": "pcm"
}' --no-buffer | play -t raw -r 24000 -e signed -b 16 -c 1 -
```
**Offline inference (no server needed):**
```bash
python examples/offline_inference/qwen3_tts/end2end.py --query-type CustomVoice
python examples/offline_inference/qwen3_tts/end2end.py --query-type CustomVoice --streaming
```
## Notes
- Memory usage: The deploy config allocates `gpu_memory_utilization: 0.3` per stage (talker + code2wav share a single GPU). For the 0.6B variants or constrained GPUs, adjust via `--gpu-memory-utilization`.
- Key flags: `--omni` is required. `--deploy-config` points to the bundled two-stage pipeline config.
- Async chunking: Enabled by default in `qwen3_tts.yaml` for streaming-friendly first-audio latency. Streaming requires `stream=true` with `response_format="pcm"`.
- Task/model matching: Each task type requires its matching model checkpoint. Using a CustomVoice model for a Base (voice clone) request will fail.
- Known limitations: The server serves one model variant at a time. To switch task types (e.g., CustomVoice to Base), restart the server with the corresponding model.
