Understanding Russian AIF files
Standard Russian is unusually uniform for a language of its size, with Northern, Central, and Southern dialect groups inside Russia differing mainly in vowel pronunciation. The variation transcription users encounter most is second-language accents from speakers across the post-Soviet states, along with occasional code-switching into Ukrainian, Kazakh, or other regional languages.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Russian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Russian AIF 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 Russian AIF file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Russian AIF file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AIF, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Russian with Sonix:
What is the difference between AIF and AIFF files?
They are the same Audio Interchange File Format; .aif is simply the shortened three-character extension. Any application that opens AIFF files can open AIF files.
Why are my AIF files so large?
AIF stores uncompressed PCM audio, so a CD-quality stereo recording takes roughly 10 MB per minute. The upside is that no audio detail is lost to compression, which also makes the files well suited to transcription.
Can Sonix transcribe Russian audio recorded outside Russia, such as in Kazakhstan or the Baltic states?
Yes. Sonix's Russian model transcribes Russian speech regardless of where it was recorded, and the built-in editor lets you correct any words affected by regional accents.
Does Sonix output Russian transcripts in Cyrillic?
Yes. Russian transcripts are produced in the Cyrillic script and can be exported to Word, PDF, plain text, and subtitle formats such as SRT and VTT.
Can Sonix translate a Russian transcript into English?
Yes. After transcribing a Russian file, you can use Sonix's translation feature to generate an English version of the transcript, then review and export it.

It was super easy, affordable, and accurate!
I found out out you guys because I had to do some transcribing for me yearbook class and my friend recommended you guys.
