Abstract

In this report, we present Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS, a production-oriented speech synthesis system that jointly advances content consistency, speaker similarity, prosodic naturalness, audio quality, controllability, multilingual coverage, efficiency, and robustness. It combines a 12.5~Hz low-frame-rate speech tokenizer for reduced inference latency with a five-stage progressive training paradigm for coordinated language model (LM) and flow-matching model (FM) optimization. The model provides production-level control through free-style natural-language instructions and fine-grained inline tags, while supporting 16 languages, 20 Chinese dialect regions, one-pass long-form synthesis up to 3 minutes, and robust generation from noisy, reverberant, or unclear reference speech. Across SEED-TTS-Eval, CV3-Eval, instruction-following, long-form, and acoustic-robustness evaluations, Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS achieves state-of-the-art performance on many reported dimensions or the strongest aggregate results. It also ranks first on the independent Artificial Analysis Text-to-Speech Leaderboard. These results establish Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS as a strong foundation for production-level speech synthesis.
