Training Steps

[karzanclick]

First, I'd like to express my gratitude for the excellent fish-speech model. It's truly impressive work.
I'm looking to train this model for new language, but I'm uncertain about the optimal number of training steps to use.

My dataset details:

76,000 voice samples
Approximately 74 hours of audio
Around 20 different speakers

Given these dataset characteristics, could you recommend an appropriate number of training steps? Any advice on optimizing the training process would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you again for developing such a valuable tool for the community.

With 76,000 samples, a batch size of 32 gives you 2,375 batches per epoch.
A good starting point for speech models is to aim for around 10–20 epochs.
Therefore, total steps = epochs × steps per epoch.

10 epochs: 23,750 steps.
20 epochs: 47,500 steps.

Thank you for your recommendation! I'll give it a try and provide feedback on the results after testing
