Model Studio Qwen TTS Voice Clone

Use voice cloning models to replicate timbre from enrollment audio samples.

Critical model names

Use one of these exact model strings:

• qwen3-tts-vc-2026-01-22
• qwen3-tts-vc-realtime-2026-01-15

Prerequisites

• Install SDK in a virtual environment:

python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install dashscope

• Set DASHSCOPE_API_KEY in your environment, or add dashscope_api_key to ~/.alibabacloud/credentials.

Normalized interface (tts.voice_clone)

Request

• text (string, required)
• voice_sample (string | bytes, required) enrollment sample
• voice_name (string, optional)
• stream (bool, optional)

Response

• audio_url (string) or streaming PCM chunks
• voice_id (string)
• request_id (string)

Operational guidance

• Use clean speech samples with low background noise.
• Respect consent and policy requirements for cloned voices.
• Persist generated voice_id and reuse for future synthesis requests.

Local helper script

Prepare a normalized request JSON and validate response schema:

.venv/bin/python skills/ai/audio/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/scripts/prepare_voice_clone_request.py \
  --text "Welcome to this voice-clone demo" \
  --voice-sample "https://example.com/voice-sample.wav"

Output location

• Default output: output/ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/audio/
• Override base dir with OUTPUT_DIR.

Validation

mkdir -p output/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone
for f in skills/ai/audio/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/scripts/*.py; do
  python3 -m py_compile "$f"
done
echo "py_compile_ok" > output/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/validate.txt

Pass criteria: command exits 0 and output/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/validate.txt is generated.

Output And Evidence

• Save artifacts, command outputs, and API response summaries under output/alicloud-ai-audio-tts-voice-clone/.
• Include key parameters (region/resource id/time range) in evidence files for reproducibility.

Workflow

1. Confirm user intent, region, identifiers, and whether the operation is read-only or mutating.
2. Run one minimal read-only query first to verify connectivity and permissions.
3. Execute the target operation with explicit parameters and bounded scope.
4. Verify results and save output/evidence files.
