"""
Chatterbox multilingual TTS backend, MLX (Metal) flavour.

Same zero-shot voice cloning and same 23 languages as ``chatterbox_backend``, but running
on the Apple Silicon GPU through mlx-audio instead of PyTorch on the CPU.

The PyTorch path is pinned to the CPU on macOS (see ``chatterbox_backend``), which costs
roughly 4x realtime. This backend uses the pre-converted weights published as
``mlx-community/chatterbox-multilingual-v3`` and renders the same sentences at about 0.5x
realtime on an M4 Max with a cloned pt-BR profile.

This mirrors the split the qwen engine already makes between ``mlx_backend`` and
``pytorch_backend``: MLX where it is available, PyTorch everywhere else.
