Understanding Basque AMR 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 AMR 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 AMR file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Basque AMR file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AMR, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Basque with Sonix:
Why won't my AMR file play on my computer?
AMR is a mobile telephony codec that many desktop media players do not support out of the box. Players such as VLC can open it, or you can convert the file to MP3 or WAV for wider compatibility.
Is AMR audio good enough for transcription?
Usually yes for clear voice recordings, since the codec is designed around the human speech range. Recordings made at the lowest bit rates or with heavy background noise carry less audio detail, which can reduce transcript clarity.
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.
