One open 9B audio model for speech recognition, understanding, TTS and editing
Teams juggling separate ASR, TTS and audio-analysis models can test a single open-weight model that handles all of them.
FireRedTeam's FireRedAudio is a general audio language model built on a 9B LLM with separate continuous representations for understanding and generation. It covers speech recognition, audio reasoning, zero-shot voice cloning, voice design from text, speech editing, and analysis of recordings up to about an hour with timestamps. Reported scores include 82.0 on MMAU and 0.71 CER on AISHELL-1. Weights are on Hugging Face and ModelScope under Apache-2.0.
