Introduction to the SSML markup language for CosyVoice - Alibaba Cloud Model Studio

Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) is an XML-based markup language for speech synthesis. It allows large speech synthesis models to process richer text content and provides fine-grained control over speech features, such as speech rate, pitch, pause, and volume. You can also add background music to create more expressive speech effects. This topic describes the SSML features of CosyVoice and how to use them.

Important

To use a model in the China (Beijing) region, go to the API key page for the China (Beijing) region

Availability

This feature supports only cloned voices from cosyvoice-v3-flash, cosyvoice-v3-plus, and cosyvoice-v2, and system voices that are marked as supported in Voice list.
This feature is available only for some APIs:
SSML does not support streaming text input but supports both streaming and non-streaming speech output.

Note

When implementing SSML, the speech synthesis service references the W3C SSML 1.0 specification. However, our implementation prioritizes business adaptability. Therefore, not all standard tags are supported. Instead, we have implemented a collection of the most practical tags based on common usage scenarios.

Usage

You can pass the text that contains SSML tags as the value of the text parameter to the speech synthesis service.

The specific usage depends on the call method:

The following code provides an example for the Java SDK:

String text = "<speak>Please close your eyes and take a rest.<break time=\"500ms\"/>Okay, please open your eyes.</speak>";
synthesizer.call(text);

Note

All text content that uses SSML features must be enclosed within <speak></speak> tags.
You can use multiple <speak> tags consecutively, such as <speak></speak><speak></speak>. You cannot nest them, such as <speak><speak></speak></speak>.
If the text within the tags contains XML special characters, you must escape them. The following table lists common special characters and their escaped forms.
- " (double quotation mark) → "
- ' (single quotation mark/apostrophe) → '
- & (ampersand) → &
- < (less than sign) → <
- > (greater than sign) → >

Tags

`<speak>`: Root node

Description
The <speak> tag is the root node for all SSML documents. All text that uses SSML features must be enclosed within <speak></speak> tags.

Syntax

 <speak>Text that requires SSML features</speak>

Properties

Property	Type	Required	Description
voice	String	No	Specifies the voice. This property has a higher priority than the `voice` parameter in the API request. Valid values: For more information about specific voices, see cosyvoice-v2 voices. Example: `<speak voice="longcheng_v2"> I am a male voice. </speak>`
rate	String	No	Specifies the speech rate. This property has a higher priority than the `speech_rate` parameter in the API request. Valid values: a decimal number from 0.5 to 2. Default value: 1 A value greater than 1 indicates a faster speech rate. A value less than 1 indicates a slower speech rate. Example: `<speak rate="2"> My speech rate is faster than normal. </speak>`
pitch	String	No	Specifies the pitch. This property has a higher priority than the `pitch_rate` parameter in the API request. Valid values: a decimal number from 0.5 to 2. Default value: 1 A value greater than 1 indicates a higher pitch. A value less than 1 indicates a lower pitch. Example: `<speak pitch="0.5"> However, my pitch is lower than others. </speak>`
volume	String	No	Specifies the volume. This property has a higher priority than the `volume` parameter in the API request. Valid values: an integer from 0 to 100. Default value: 50 A value greater than 50 indicates a higher volume. A value less than 50 indicates a lower volume. Example: `<speak volume="80"> My volume is also very high. </speak>`
effect	String	No	Specifies the sound effect. Valid values: robot: robot sound effect lolita: lively female voice effect lowpass: low-pass sound effect echo: echo sound effect eq: equalizer (advanced) lpfilter: low-pass filter (advanced) hpfilter: high-pass filter (advanced) Note The eq, lpfilter, and hpfilter are advanced sound effect types. You can use the `effectValue` parameter to customize their specific effects. Each SSML tag supports only one sound effect. Multiple `effect` attributes cannot coexist. Using sound effects increases system latency. Example: `<speak effect="robot"> Do you like the robot WALL-E? </speak>`
effectValue	String	No	Specifies the specific effect of the sound effect (the `effect` parameter). Valid values: `eq` (equalizer): The system supports eight frequency levels by default: ["40 Hz", "100 Hz", "200 Hz", "400 Hz", "800 Hz", "1600 Hz", "4000 Hz", "12000 Hz"]. The bandwidth of each frequency band is 1.0 q. When you use this effect, you must use the `effectValue` parameter to specify the gain value for each frequency band. This parameter is a string of eight integers separated by spaces. The value of each integer ranges from -20 to 20. A value of `0` indicates that the gain of the corresponding frequency is not adjusted. For example: `effectValue="1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1"` `lpfilter` (low-pass filter): Enter the frequency value of the low-pass filter. The value is an integer in the range of (0, target sample rate/2]. For example, effectValue="800". `hpfilter` (high-pass filter): Enter the frequency value of the high-pass filter. The value is an integer in the range of (0, target sample rate/2]. For example, effectValue="1200". Example: `<speak effect="eq" effectValue="1 -20 1 1 1 1 20 1"> Do you like the robot WALL-E? </speak> <speak effect="lpfilter" effectValue="1200"> Do you like the robot WALL-E? </speak> <speak effect="hpfilter" effectValue="1200"> Do you like the robot WALL-E? </speak>`
bgm	String	No	Adds the specified background music to the synthesized speech. The background music file must be stored in Alibaba Cloud OSS (see Upload files), and its bucket must have at least public-read permissions. If the background music URL contains XML special characters, such as `&`, `<`, and `>`, you must escape them. Audio requirements: There is no upper limit on the audio file size, but larger files may increase download time. If the duration of the synthesized content exceeds the duration of the background music, the background music is automatically looped to match the length of the synthesized audio. Sample rate: 16 kHz Number of sound channels: mono File format: WAV If the original audio is not in WAV format, use the `ffmpeg` tool to transform it: `ffmpeg -i input_audio -acodec pcm_s16le -ac 1 -ar 16000 output.wav` Bit depth: 16-bit Example: `<speak bgm="http://nls.alicdn.com/bgm/2.wav" backgroundMusicVolume="30" rate="-500" volume="40"> <break time="2s"/> The old trees on the shady cliff are shrouded in mist <break time="700ms"/> The sound of rain is still in the bamboo forest <break time="700ms"/> I know that cotton contributes to the country's plan <break time="700ms"/> The scenery of Mianzhou is always pitiable <break time="2s"/> </speak>` Important You are legally responsible for the copyright of the uploaded audio.
backgroundMusicVolume	String	No	Controls the volume of the background music. This is configured using the `backgroundMusicVolume` property.

Tag relationships
The <speak> tag can contain text and the following tags:

More examples

Empty attribute

<speak>
  Text that requires SSML tags
</speak>

Attribute combination (separated by spaces)

<speak rate="200" pitch="-100" volume="80">
  So when put together, my voice sounds like this.
</speak>

<break>: Controls pause duration

Description
Adds a period of silence during speech synthesis to simulate a natural pause. You can set the duration in seconds (s) or milliseconds (ms). This tag is optional.

Syntax

# Empty attribute
<break/>
# With the time attribute
<break time="string"/>

Properties

Note

If you use the <break> tag without attributes, the default pause duration is 1 s.

Property

Type

Required

Description

time

String

Sets the pause duration in seconds or milliseconds, such as "2s" or "50ms".

Valid values:
- In seconds (s): an integer from 1 to 10.
- In milliseconds (ms): an integer from 50 to 10000.

Example:

<speak>
  Please close your eyes and take a rest.<break time="500ms"/>Okay, please open your eyes.
</speak>

Important

If you use multiple <break> tags consecutively, the total pause duration is the sum of the time specified in each tag. If the total duration exceeds 10 seconds, only the first 10 seconds take effect.

For example, in the following SSML segment, the cumulative duration of the <break> tags is 15 seconds, which exceeds the 10-second limit. The final pause duration will be truncated to 10 seconds:

<speak>
  Please close your eyes and take a rest.<break time="5s"/><break time="5s"/><break time="5s"/>Okay, please open your eyes.
</speak>
