Frequently Asked Questions

Why is WAV better than MP3 for transcription?

WAV files are lossless. MP3 compression removes audio data that can sometimes contain phoneme information. WAV input can give slightly higher accuracy for difficult audio.

What sample rate is recommended?

16 kHz mono is the standard for speech recognition. Higher sample rates (44.1 kHz, 48 kHz) also work and are downsampled automatically.

Can I convert stereo WAV files?

Yes. Stereo files are accepted. They may be mixed to mono internally for transcription processing.

Are very long WAV files supported?

Yes. There is no hard duration limit but very long files will take longer to process.

Does file size matter for WAV?

WAV files are large because they are uncompressed. Ensure you have a stable connection for uploading large WAV files.
