Voxcpm2 GGUF

VoxCPM2 GGUF

GGUF conversion of openbmb/VoxCPM2 for use with CrispASR.

Model Details

• Architecture: TSLM (28L MiniCPM-4) + RALM (8L) + LocEnc (12L) + LocDiT (12L) + AudioVAE
• Parameters: ~2B
• Output: 48 kHz mono PCM
• Languages: 30 languages (Arabic, Burmese, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Lao, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Tagalog, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese) plus 9 Chinese dialects
• License: Apache 2.0
• Voice Cloning: Supported via reference audio

Features

• Tokenizer-free: Directly generates audio patches via diffusion (no discrete audio tokens)
• High quality: CFM-based generation with classifier-free guidance
• Multilingual: 30-language support via CJK-split BPE tokenizer (73k vocab)
• Voice cloning: Zero-shot voice cloning from reference audio

Usage with CrispASR

# Zero-shot TTS
crispasr -m voxcpm2-f16.gguf \
    --tts "Hello, this is VoxCPM2 speaking." \
    --tts-output output.wav

# Quantized (smaller, faster)
crispasr -m voxcpm2-q4_k.gguf \
    --tts "Hello world" --tts-output output.wav

Files

File	Size	Description
voxcpm2-f16.gguf	4.63 GB	F16 weights (full precision)
voxcpm2-q4_k.gguf	~1.5 GB	Q4_K quantized (faster, slightly lower quality)
voxcpm2-q8_0.gguf	2.83 GB	Q8_0 quantized (near-F16 quality)
voxcpm2-ref.gguf	371 KB	Reference activation dump for numerical validation

Numerical Validation

The voxcpm2-ref.gguf file contains intermediate activation tensors captured from the PyTorch reference implementation. Used with crispasr-diff to validate the C++ inference path:

crispasr-diff voxcpm2-tts voxcpm2-f16.gguf voxcpm2-ref.gguf samples/jfk.wav

Current status: 12 pass, 0 fail across all transformer stages (TSLM, RALM, LocEnc, LocDiT, projections).

Captured stages: text_input_ids, locenc_in, locenc_out, enc_to_lm, tslm_layer_0_out, tslm_layer_27_out, tslm_prefill_out, ralm_prefill_out, lm_to_dit_hidden, res_to_dit_hidden, cfm_step0_z, cfm_step0_result, stop_logits_step0.

Architecture

Text → BPE tokenize → TSLM (28L causal MiniCPM-4, GQA 16h/2kv, LongRoPE)
                       ↓
                    FSQ bottleneck (tanh→round→linear)
                       ↓
              RALM (8L causal, no RoPE, GQA 16h/2kv)
                       ↓
         Projections: lm_to_dit + res_to_dit → mu [2048]
                       ↓
    LocDiT (12L bidirectional, CFM Euler solver, 10 steps, cfg=2.0)
                       ↓
              Predicted latent patch [4 frames × 64 dims]
                       ↓
         LocEnc (12L bidirectional) → next TSLM input
                       ↓ (AR loop until stop)
              AudioVAE decoder → 48 kHz PCM
