Frequently Asked Questions
What makes MiniMax Speech 2.6 HD different from 2.6 Turbo?
Speech 2.6 HD prioritizes maximum fidelity and expressive, natural prosody—ideal for voiceovers and audiobooks. Speech 2.6 Turbo focuses on low latency for real-time or interactive scenarios.
Which audio formats are supported?
Choose mp3 for general use, wav or flac for lossless post-production, and pcm for raw byte streams. You can also set bitrate (for mp3), sample_rate, and channel (mono or stereo).
How do I control emotion and delivery?
Set emotion to auto for intelligent matching or choose a specific style such as calm, happy, sad, angry, fearful, disgusted, surprised, fluent, or neutral. You can also fine-tune pitch (−12 to +12) and speed (0.5–2.0).
Does it support multiple languages?
Yes. It supports 40+ languages. Use language_boost to set Automatic or a specific language to improve consistency and pronunciation for your script.
How do I add pauses or control pacing?
Insert pause markers like <#0.5#> directly in your text to add a 0.5-second pause. Combine this with speed and emotion settings for precise pacing.
What are the input limits?
You can submit up to 10,000 characters per request. Multi-paragraph scripts are supported, and you can mix pause markers with regular text.
What sample rates and channels are available?
Common sample rates include 8000–44100 Hz (e.g., 16000, 32000, 44100). Use mono for single-channel output or stereo for two-channel mixes.
Do hosted audio links expire?
Yes. They typically expires after 7 days. Download and store the file in your own infrastructure for long-term use.
Is English number/date reading improved?
Set english_normalization to true to enhance pronunciation and formatting of numbers and dates in English text. This may add minor latency.
When should I choose FLAC or WAV over MP3?
Use FLAC or WAV for editing, mixing, or mastering in post-production. Choose MP3 for lightweight distribution where file size matters.
