Making TTS with vivid emotion

Hello!

Have you ever felt that your TTS (Text-to-Speech)

lacked emotional expression?

TTS is convenient, but capturing

rich, human-like emotions can be tricky.

With just a few simple tips,

you can make your TTS sound more natural and lively.

Let’s check them out now!

1. Choose a TTS style that matches the emotion

To convey emotions well,

start by selecting the right style.

Example:


  • Default style + happy emotion

    [ Yahoo! I’m excited! ]
  • Happy style + happy emotion

    [ Yahoo! I’m so excited!!! ]

The same sentence can have

much richer expression with the right style.

2. For a dynamic tone, increase Pitch Variance

If you want emotions to feel more real,

adjust the Pitch Variance.

Increasing it adds more intonation

and creates a more vibrant tone.

3. Onomatopoeia is key for emotional acting – stretch them out

Use onomatopoeia and mimetic words

to add depth to emotions.

When expressing feelings,

stretch these words for stronger effect.

Example:

  • Sad style

    [
    Huuuuh... sniff... sob... Mom... I’m sorry... sob... ]
  • Joyful style

    [
    Wooooow!!! This is amaaazing~~~!! ]

This helps TTS produce

a more immersive performance.

4. Exclamation marks (!) are essential for emphasis

When you want to convey strong emotions,

add multiple exclamation marks.

  • Normal: I’m really happy!
  • Emphasized: I’m really happy!!!!!

With 5 or more exclamation marks,

TTS will generate stronger emotions.

5. If sentences break too quickly, use punctuation and spacing

If TTS pauses too abruptly,

try these adjustments:

  • Add a period (.) or comma (,) at the end
  • Insert a space after the sentence

These tricks help maintain

a natural flow of speech.

🎯 Summary: Key tips for lively TTS

  • Choose the right emotional style first
  • Stretch out onomatopoeia for more impact
  • Use exclamation marks (!) for emphasis
  • Maintain flow with punctuation and spacing
