MiniMax Audio, a leading innovator in audio technology, has officially launched its brand-new Speech-02 series of speech models. Supporting over 30 languages and capable of processing up to 200,000 characters at once, it offers users a more realistic, smoother, and more convenient audio experience.
The new Speech-02 series is the core highlight of this update. According to the official announcement, this series has achieved a significant improvement in multilingual coverage, enabling more accurate and natural pronunciation in various languages.
Even more impressive is Speech-02's human voice similarity, reaching a remarkable 99%. This means the synthesized speech sounds incredibly natural and lifelike. Furthermore, the model boasts zero rhythm glitches, completely eliminating potential stuttering and inconsistencies during audio playback, ensuring a seamless and fluid listening experience. Importantly, despite these significant upgrades, the Speech-02 series maintains its affordable price.
Beyond the core improvements in speech synthesis technology, MiniMax Audio has also introduced several practical new features. The new "Read Anything" feature allows users to listen to various content anytime, anywhere, simply by uploading local files or pasting web URLs, significantly expanding access to audio information [1, our previous conversation]. Whether it's documents, ebooks, or web articles, users can easily convert them into their preferred voice for listening.
To address the needs of long-text processing, MiniMax Audio has launched the powerful "Long-Text Mode," which supports asynchronous speech synthesis of up to 200,000 characters in a single input. This makes creating audiobooks and podcasts incredibly convenient, eliminating the previous hassle of segmenting long texts for synthesis.
To optimize user experience, MiniMax Audio has also enhanced its history management function, allowing users to more easily view, delete, and organize their speech synthesis history and settings. Additionally, the new "Discovery Hub" showcases all new features and updates, helping users quickly understand and stay informed about the latest developments from MiniMax Audio.
