Voice Recording for AI Training for Code-Switching ASR
Studio voice recording built for model training rather than broadcast: controlled acoustics, consistent mic distance, and reproducible session parameters across every speaker. Applied to code-switching asr, the specification is driven by one thing: switch-point accuracy.
- Service
- Voice recording
- Use case
- Code-Switching ASR
- Primary metric
- Switch-point accuracy
Required data profile
- Genuinely code-mixed spontaneous speech
- Per-token language ID labels
- A fixed rule for script of English tokens
Technical specification
| Parameter | Standard |
|---|---|
| Sample rate | 48 kHz |
| Bit depth | 24-bit |
| Microphone | Large-diaphragm condenser, fixed distance, pop filter |
| Room | Treated booth, RT60 under 0.3s |
| Processing | None. No compression, EQ, or noise reduction on delivered audio |
| Session length | 30-90 minutes per speaker, with breaks logged |
Process
- Session template definition so every studio in the network records identically
- Speaker briefing and pronunciation calibration
- Take-level monitoring with immediate re-record on defect
- Per-session technical report
- Delivery with unprocessed masters
Metrics this feeds
- Switch-point accuracy
- Mixed-utterance WER
- Language ID token accuracy
Failure modes to design out
- Concatenating monolingual data and calling it code-mixed
- Leaving script conventions to individual annotators
Delivered audio is never processed. Training pipelines should see the raw capture so augmentation stays under your control.
Deliverables
- Unprocessed WAV masters
- Session logs
- Take-level metadata
- Speaker consent records
Frequently asked
Is voice recording the right service for code-switching asr?
It covers genuinely code-mixed spontaneous speech. Most code-switching asr programmes combine it with at least one other service; we will say so in the scope rather than selling one line item.
What languages are available?
All 14 languages in the network plus Indian English accent bands.
How is the evaluation set handled?
Collected first, from speakers disjoint from the training cohort, so improvement is measurable.
