Understanding Basque AAC files
Basque has five main dialect groups in the modern classification, including Biscayan, Gipuzkoan, and the more divergent Zuberoan (Souletin) spoken in France. Most modern media, education, and broadcast content uses Euskara Batua (Standard Basque), the standardized form that speech recognition handles most reliably.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Basque transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Basque AAC file that you upload to Sonix. Please use high quality recording equipment, recording in a quiet environment, and ensure that your speakers are speaking clearly to ensure that your transcript is as accurate as possible.
Any advice for the Basque AAC file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Basque AAC file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AAC, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Basque with Sonix:
What is the difference between AAC and M4A files?
Both typically contain the same AAC-encoded audio; the difference is packaging. A .aac file is a raw ADTS stream, while a .m4a file wraps the audio in an MPEG-4 container that supports metadata such as tags, artwork, and chapters.
Why won't my AAC file open in some apps?
Raw .aac files are a bare audio stream without a standard container, so some players and editors that expect MP4/M4A files cannot read them. Renaming the extension does not fix this — remux or convert the file into an M4A or MP3 instead.
Can Sonix transcribe Basque audio and video?
Yes. Upload your Basque audio or video file, select Basque as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit in the browser and export to formats like DOCX, PDF, and SRT.
Does Basque transcription work for regional dialects?
Automated transcription performs best with Euskara Batua (Standard Basque), the form used in most broadcast and educational content. Recordings in traditional dialects such as Zuberoan may require more manual correction in the editor.
What if my Basque recording mixes in Spanish or French?
Code-switching with Spanish or French is common in Basque speech. Transcribe in the dominant language of the recording, then use the built-in editor to correct any mixed-language passages.
