Understanding Estonian FLAC files
Standard Estonian is based on the northern dialect group, which dominates broadcast media and everyday speech. South Estonian varieties such as Võro, Seto, Mulgi, and Tartu diverge substantially — Võro and Seto are sometimes classified as separate languages — so recordings from southeastern Estonia can differ noticeably from the standard.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Estonian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Estonian FLAC 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 Estonian FLAC file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Estonian FLAC file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from FLAC, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Estonian with Sonix:
Do I need to convert FLAC to MP3 before transcribing?
No. FLAC files can be uploaded and transcribed directly, and skipping the MP3 conversion avoids an unnecessary lossy re-encode of your audio.
Why won't my FLAC file play in iTunes or Apple Music?
Apple's media apps do not natively support FLAC; Apple uses its own lossless codec, ALAC. You can play FLAC on Apple devices through the Files app or a third-party player, or convert the file to ALAC or AAC for library use.
Can Sonix transcribe Estonian audio and video files?
Yes. Upload an Estonian audio or video file, select Estonian as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit, search, and export.
Does Estonian transcription handle South Estonian dialects like Võro?
Sonix's Estonian transcription targets standard Estonian, which is based on the northern dialects. Strongly divergent South Estonian varieties such as Võro or Seto may need additional review in the editor.
Can I export Estonian transcripts as subtitles?
Yes. Estonian transcripts can be exported as SRT and VTT subtitle files, as well as document formats like DOCX and PDF.
