**Speed control**: The global `tts.speed` value applies to all providers by default. Each provider can override it with its own `speed` setting (e.g., `tts.openai.speed: 1.5`). Provider-specific speed takes precedence over the global value. Default is `1.0` (normal speed).
### Gemini Persona Prompts
Gemini TTS can follow natural-language performance direction. Set `tts.gemini.persona_prompt_file` to a local Markdown or text file that describes the voice persona. The file can include Gemini-style sections such as `AUDIO PROFILE`, `SCENE`, `DIRECTOR'S NOTES`, `SAMPLE CONTEXT`, and `TRANSCRIPT`.
If the file contains `{transcript}` or `{{ transcript }}`, Hermes replaces that placeholder with the live TTS text. Otherwise, Hermes appends a labeled `TRANSCRIPT` section automatically. The persona prompt stays local and is not shown in the chat reply.
