vn_S_DRAM_

Dramatic Style — high

Evolving prompt+sampling to push VoiceNet dimension S_DRAM in the high direction with the vn_S_DRAM__high LoRA. Steering phrase: highly dramatic, theatrical, over-the-top delivery.

Best in-direction score 0.964 at 100% vs neutral 0.389 (shift +0.575).

Method & reproducibility — how the evolution ran

Base model: laion/moss-tts-local-transformer-4.55b-voice-acting-v2 · LoRA: the new VoiceNet-dimension LoRA vn_<CODE>__<high|low> (retrained with ≤25% game-character data, rank 32), applied via PEFT adapter scaling at strength λ.
Algorithm: genetic search — population 12, 10 generations, elitism (top 5). During evolution every genome is generated best-of-6 with the LoRA at λ=100%; its fitness = the mean over those 6 candidates of the target VoiceNet dimension score in the intended direction (for a __high LoRA the raw score; for __low, 1−score), minus 0.2·max(0, WER−0.6).
Genome (what evolves): the GENERAL voice description, the SCRIPT cue, the carrier sentence, and the sampling params (temperature, top_p, top_k). λ is fixed at 100% during the search.
Mutation operators: 40% regenerate description, 25% swap carrier, 17% jitter temperature ±0.1, 18% change top_k. Offspring = 60% crossover + mutation, 40% mutation.
Dose measurement (below): the winning recipe is then re-generated at λ=0 (LoRA OFF), λ=50% and λ=100% (each best-of-6) to show exactly what 50% vs 100% of the LoRA brings over the no-LoRA baseline.
