About this model

MiniMax Speech 2.8 HD is the flagship studio-grade text-to-speech model from MiniMax. Built on an autoregressive Transformer architecture with a Flow-VAE decoder, it delivers highly expressive, broadcast-ready voice synthesis. It features native sound tags for realistic paralinguistic sounds (such as laughs, sighs, and breaths), robust emotion control, and high-fidelity voice cloning from just 10 seconds of audio. Supporting over 40 languages, it is optimized for professional audiobook narration, podcast production, and high-end video voiceovers.
