Diarization
Transcription:Batch Real-Time Deployments:AllSpeechmatics offers four different modes for separating out different speakers in the audio:
| Type | Description | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Speaker diarization | Each speaker will be identified by their voice. | Used in cases where there are multiple speakers in the same audio recording. |
| Channel diarization | Each audio channel will be transcribed separately. Available for batch transcription only. | Used when it's possible to record each speaker on a separate audio channel. |
| Channel diarization & speaker change | Transcribes each audio channel separately and within each channel provides the point when there is a new speaker. Available for batch transcription only. | Used when it's possible to record some speakers on a separate audio channel, but some channels there are multiple speakers. |
| Speaker change (Legacy) | Provides the point in transcription when there is a new speaker. | Can be used for real-time applications when you just need to know the speaker has changed. We recommend using speaker diarization for this use case instead, due to improvements in speaker detection accuracy. |
By default, the transcript will not be diarized. For details on configuring diarization, please see the relevant page linked below.
