# Using Moshi (Voice to Voice)

To test Moshi, you need to set up and run the Moshi Server on Runpod (Or your running it on your own computer/server):

***

#### **Step 1: Set Up Moshi Server**

1. Login to the Terminal on your instance, whether it is your own server or a Runpod instance (If you don't have a good GPU)
2. **Clone the Moshi Server**

   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/flukexp/moshi_server.git moshi && cd moshi
   ```
3. **Create a virtual environment**

   ```bash
   python -m venv venv
   ```
4. **Activate the virtual environment**
   * On macOS/Linux:

     ```bash
     source venv/bin/activate
     ```
   * On Windows (Command Prompt):

     ```bash
     venv\Scripts\activate
     ```
   * On Windows (PowerShell):

     ```powershell
     .\venv\Scripts\Activate
     ```
5. **Install dependencies**

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

***

#### **Step 2: Start the Moshi Server**

Start the Moshi server (For Runpod):

```bash
uvicorn moshi_service:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 
```

Start the Moshi server (For your own computer):

```bash
uvicorn moshi_service:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000 
```

***

#### **Step 3: Change Settings on Amica to Use Moshi**

Open Settings > Chatbot Backend , and select Moshi.

Then go to Settings > Chatbot Backend > Moshi, and then insert the correct URL for accessing Moshi server. (E.g. <http://localhost:8000> for local server and a runpod proxy URL, which is on your runpod instance and looks like : <https://rn8xojhvb-8000.proxy.runpod.net>, the URL has the runpod instance identifier and the port)

*There is no difference whether you are running locally or off the Amica demo.*

***

**Notes:**

* Ensure that **Python and pip** are installed before proceeding. **Edit the model URLs in the main python script if you want to use a different model from Kyutai.**

***

Replace the `{port-number}` in the URL with the actual port number.
