◇ ComfyUI-Chatterbox ◆ Revised ◆

Chatterbox, refactored. Text-to-Speech and Voice Conversion for ComfyUI on a leaner core. Supports: classic, Turbo, Nano, Flash, Multilingual.

Less to import. No temp files. Same voices, faster to a result.

Note

ComfyUI-Chatterbox runs a refactored Chatterbox core. The vendored model code reimplements its audio DSP in pure numpy/torch, bit-for-bit with the original (verified against librosa 1.0.0 on the trained featurization parameters), and drops librosa, scipy, omegaconf and conformer. Reference clips are handed to the model in memory, never through a temp .wav. The only package this node adds is s3tokenizer. Models download on first run into ComfyUI/models/tts/chatterbox/.

❖ Features

Capability	Detail
One TTS node, every pack	classic, Turbo 350M, Nano 110M and Flash are routed automatically from the pack's contents
Multilingual TTS	23 languages, v1 / v2 / v3 weights, plus six Single Language Pack finetunes (zh-cmn, es-mx, es-es, pt-br, pt-pt, hi)
Voice cloning	any .wav / .mp3 as the voice prompt, passed to the model in memory
Voice conversion	re-voice a source recording into a target timbre
Multi-speaker dialog	up to four cloned voices in one output, with SRT subtitle alignment
Lean core	DSP in pure numpy/torch, bit-exact with the original; s3tokenizer is the only dependency
Devices	CUDA, ROCm, XPU, MPS and CPU, under ComfyUI's VRAM manager

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

⌸ Models

Downloaded on first run into ComfyUI/models/tts/chatterbox/ (~2.5 GB each). Shared weights (ve.safetensors, s3gen*) are stored once and reused across packs.

Family	Members	Notes
Classic	chatterbox	English TTS, built-in reference voice in conds.pt
Turbo	chatterbox-turbo, chatterbox-turbo-nano	Paralinguistic tags, top-k sampler; 350M / 110M
Flash	chatterbox-flash	Block-diffusion sampler; a reference clip is required
Multilingual	chatterbox-mtl	23 languages, v1 / v2 / v3
Single Language Packs	zh-cmn, es-mx-latam, es-es, pt-br, pt-pt, hi	MTL node only

Tip

Picks appear in the node's model dropdown; nothing to configure by hand. Ready-made graphs for every family live in example_workflows/.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

⇩ Getting started

ComfyUI Manager — Manager → Install Custom Nodes → search ComfyUI-Chatterbox → Install → restart.

Manual installation

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/wildminder/ComfyUI-Chatterbox.git
pip install -r ComfyUI-Chatterbox/requirements.txt

Restart ComfyUI. Nodes appear under WMNodes/sound/*.

Requirement	Version
Python	>=3.10 (tested through 3.13)
ComfyUI	>=0.37.0 (V3 node API)
Added dependency	s3tokenizer only, a pure-Python wheel

Optional extras, installed as pip install ComfyUI-Chatterbox[extra]: watermarking (resemble-perth), multilingual (pykakasi, spacy-pkuseg) and turbo (pyloudnorm). Nothing else is required; the rest of the stack comes from ComfyUI itself.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

❯ Usage

1. Add a node from WMNodes/sound/*.
2. Pick the model; connect an AUDIO input to clone a voice.
3. Queue the prompt.

Node	Menu name	Does
ChatterboxTTS	Chatterbox TTS 📢	Speech from text, optional voice cloning. One node for every TTS pack.
ChatterboxMTLTTS	Chatterbox Multilingual TTS 🌍	Speech in 23 languages, plus the Single Language Packs.
ChatterboxVC	Chatterbox Voice Conversion 🗣️	Re-voices a source recording into a target voice.
ChatterboxDialog	Chatterbox Multi-Speaker Dialog 🎭	Multi-speaker conversation, up to four cloned voices.
ChatterboxSRT	Chatterbox SRT / Subtitles 📝	Speaks a timed SRT script and returns adjusted subtitles.

Every widget is documented in its node tooltip. Load a graph from example_workflows/ to see the nodes wired up.

⌗ Good to know

No version pins	ComfyUI Manager resolves the stack; a pin could force a downgrade of the host's torch build.
Offline	Packs are fetched by a first-run download and a local pack is never re-downloaded afterwards.
VRAM	Weights load under ComfyUI's manager and offload between runs; ~2.5 GB per pack on disk as safetensors.
Layout	Node code lives in nodes/, the vendored Chatterbox core in src/chatterbox/.
Upgrading from 1.x	2.0.0 moved packs from models/chatterbox_tts/ to models/tts/chatterbox/. No compatibility shim is provided, so delete the old directory by hand. Widget order did not change and node ids did not change, so saved workflows still load.
