How it works
Three steps from source to result
- 01
Choose a local recording
Select an MP3 or WAV up to 95 MiB and 60 minutes. Check its duration and estimated minute credits before starting.
- 02
Set the spoken language
Chinese is preselected. Change the source language if the recording is spoken in another language; your website interface language does not change the audio setting.
- 03
Review and export
Wait for the private task, replay the source, check names and figures, save revisions, and download the current text as TXT or DOCX.
01 · Decision guide
Chinese Transcription from audio
Use this page when the desired output is Chinese writing from a Mandarin recording. The result is an original-language transcript, not pinyin or an English translation. An interview, field note, or spoken update can be reviewed in the same place where it was uploaded.
A local MP3 or WAV is sent through your account's transcription task. The page shows an estimate before submission, then keeps the task in My recordings so you can return to it later.
02 · Decision guide
Review native-language text
Listen to the source while reading the result. In the interview above, check 张伟, 2026年9月, 3个团队, and AI against the audio. Those details matter more than a fluent-looking sentence.
Edit the transcript directly and save it before downloading. If speech is unclear or voices overlap, replay the relevant moment. Clear recording and well-placed microphones generally reduce the amount of correction needed.

Language and export limitations
Chinese is the initial source-language setting, and you may change it. This page does not select a simplified or traditional script, convert between them, promise Cantonese coverage, or translate the transcript. Review the characters and punctuation in the returned text before sharing it.
This page accepts local MP3 and 16-bit PCM WAV audio up to 95 MiB and 60 minutes. WAV must be mono or stereo at 44.1 or 48 kHz. Processing uses your account's available transcription minutes; it is not a local-only operation. TXT saves UTF-8 text and DOCX saves an editable document based on the current saved revision.
Limits to check before you start
A useful tool explains the boundary of the result as clearly as the benefit.
- 01MP3 or 16-bit PCM WAV only; WAV needs 44.1 or 48 kHz mono or stereo audio. Video and pasted links are not accepted.
- 02The spoken-language choice does not set the website interface locale or guarantee a particular Chinese script.
- 03Check names, mixed Chinese-English terms, figures, and punctuation against the recording before export.
- 04Transcription uses account minutes. The current plan and balance determine whether a task can start.

Commercial comparison
Audio Convert vs manual transcription vs a desktop tool
Choose Audio Convert when you want a quick first draft and a browser review flow tied to your recordings. Manual transcription suits work where every word must be chosen by a person from the start. A desktop tool can suit an established offline workflow when its actual features and formats meet your needs.

Common questions
Answers before you continue
Does choosing Chinese change my website language?
No. The source-language selector describes the audio. This page is published in English, and its controls do not change when you select Chinese.
Can I force simplified or traditional characters?
No script switch is provided here. Inspect the returned characters and edit them when a particular written form matters.
What if a Chinese name or number is wrong?
Replay the source, correct the editable text, and save the revision before downloading. The short interview above includes both as review targets.
Which downloads keep Chinese characters?
TXT is encoded as UTF-8, and DOCX stores the current saved text in an editable document. Both retain Chinese punctuation, English letters, and digits.
Which WAV recordings can I use?
Choose an uncompressed 16-bit PCM WAV with one or two channels at 44.1 or 48 kHz. The page checks the file before it starts a paid transcription task.
Can I upload a video or paste a link?
No. This page accepts a local MP3 or WAV audio file. Choose a supported audio file to continue.
