+# Tools and Setup
+Back to [[Video Stack - Overview]]
+
+## Paths on TonyB
+- `C:\tts\tts.py` - Chatterbox voice script (`--ref <wav>` for cloning)
+- `C:\tts\gemini_tts.py` - Gemini TTS; `--style` for directions, `--whole` (whole script in one request), `--fallback-model` (switch to Lite when the daily limit is hit)
+- `C:\tts\qwen3tts` - Qwen3-TTS venv (1.7B VoiceDesign / Base clone)
+- `C:\tts\chatterbox` - Chatterbox venv
+- `C:\tts\voices\user_announcer_ref.wav` - user's own announcer recording (20.65 s, mono 24 kHz)
+- `C:\tts\vt\vt.py` - voice-test runner
+- `C:\video\template` - video template
+- `C:\video\HERMES_PROMPT.md`, `C:\video\COPYWRITING.md`
+- `C:\video\examples\prop1ad` - worked example
+- `C:\video\voice_tests` - bake-off samples
+- Hermes profile: `C:\Users\fight\AppData\Local\hermes\profiles\explainer` - start with `explainer chat`
+
+## GPU (RTX 3060, 12 GB)
+- Qwen llama-server on :1922 uses ~6.4 GB baseline. Never start Gemma (:1923) alongside it.
+- Peak VRAM seen: Chatterbox 3.9 GB, Qwen3-TTS VoiceDesign ~4.3-4.5 GB, Qwen3-TTS clone 5.0 GB. Run TTS models one at a time.
+- Long runs: one-time scheduled tasks (`schtasks /create ... /sc once`, `/run`), delete afterwards.
+
+## Gemini
+- Free tier: 10 requests/day on flash-tts (resets ~4:50 PM PT); flash-lite-tts 3/min. Script auto-falls back to Lite.
+- Style must go in `speech_metadata.style` (interactions endpoint), never in the text.
+- `GEMINI_API_KEY` goes in the explainer profile `.env` (user step; not confirmed done).
