Overview
VoiceStudio is an Electron desktop app with a Python backend for voice cloning, text-described voice design, timed video dubbing, dictation, transcription and audiobook creation. The default engine is k2-fsa/OmniVoice, with other engines selectable and models installed through a Model Manager. It also exposes a local API and an MCP server for agents.
Who it is for: Creators and self-hosters who want local voice cloning, dubbing and dictation
Strengths
- Covers cloning, voice design, dubbing, dictation and audiobooks in one app
- CUDA on NVIDIA, Metal on Apple Silicon, and a CPU fallback
- Local API and MCP for agents, plus watch folders and reusable recipes
- Installers for macOS, Windows and Linux, plus Docker
Weaknesses
- AGPL-3.0 app licence; model weights and voices carry separate terms
- CPU-only use is slower; CPU PyTorch setup needs about 5 GB disk
- Intel Mac runs the UI only and needs a remote backend
- Windows on ARM is experimental and CPU only
What it needs
- GPU optional
- Docker + Compose
- Needs Electron, Python, PyTorch, Bun (source build), Node.js 22+ (source build)
- Models: k2-fsa/OmniVoice
