07/24/2025, 7:10 PMTo add a time gap between words in LiveKit TTS, you can use the following methods depending on your implementation:
1. Using SSML Break Tags:
• Enable SSML parsing in your TTS configuration.
• Use the SSML "break" tag in your text to specify pauses. For example: Sources: examples/other/text-to-speech/sync_tts_transcription.py | agents/src/transcription.ts | TextSyncOptions | LiveKit Agents | Deepgram TTS integration guide | LiveKit Docs | Agent speech | LiveKit Docs
