Audio Translation

Language Connect provides an audio to audio translation service in over 100 different languages. Audio translation is more analogous to interpreting than translation. After listening to a recording the translation is realised by our linguist into their native tongue and recorded straight onto audio. This process is much quicker than written translation and can therefore be useful in a number of situations. For example:

• Market Research studies – focus group and in-depth interviews can generate transcripts tens, if not hundreds of thousands of words long. Our audio translation service allows you to fully interpret what is being said by the respondent(s) at a fraction of the cost of transcription.
• Online broadcast media – webcasts, presentations and conference recordings are some examples where audio translation can give the effect of simultaneous interpreting.

There are also situations where audio translation should not be used:

• Where line-by-line translation is required for audio. This is a different service called dubbing.
• Where a professional sound recording is required for general broadcast and distribution. A voice-over artist in a studio is needed in this instance.

Our audio translation service is highly customisable to meet your needs. To speak to us about your audio translation requirements, simply complete our enquiry form and we will get in contact with you to discuss your needs in further detail.
