Unlike traditional vocoders that work in the time domain, Vocos generates spectral coefficients and reconstructs audio via inverse Fourier transform, enabling fast single-pass synthesis. It is trained using a GAN objective and can accept either mel-spectrograms or EnCodec tokens as input, making it suitable for integration into text-to-speech pipelines or audio processing workflows.\n\nThe package includes pre-trained models for 24 kHz audio synthesis and supports both inference and training modes. It depends on torch, torchaudio, numpy, scipy, einops, pyyaml, huggingface-hub, and encodec. Installation is straightforward, though the dormant maintenance status (last release 2023-10-14) means bug fixes and feature updates are not actively rolling out.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need a fast neural vocoder for mel-spectrogram or EnCodec token-to-audio synthesis and can work with a dormant codebase. Low install friction and zero known vulnerabilities make it practical for inference. Verify the license status directly in the repository before commercial use, and be aware that maintenance has stalled since 2023-10-14\u2014expect no active support or updates."},"id":"vocos","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/vocos","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/vocos.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/vocos/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-10-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"vocos","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Fourier-based neural vocoder for high-quality audio synthesis"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":423607,"position":6771,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.0"}
