Step-by-Step: Translate Audio in 5 Steps
Open "Audio Translation"
Launch TransGull Desktop and select "Audio Translation" on the main interface.
Paste YouTube Music or Podcast Link
Copy the URL of the YouTube Music, podcast, or web audio you want to translate, paste it into the input box, and click "Open URL".
Select Source & Target Languages
Choose the language pair based on your content and needs (TransGull currently supports mutual translation across 47 languages):
· Source Language: The original language spoken in the audio (e.g., Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.).
· Target Language: The language you want to translate into (e.g., English ).
Start Translation
Once your language settings are confirmed, click "Start Translation" to initiate AI audio recognition and translation.
💡 Tip：If the audio is long and takes time to process, click "Listen Later" in the bottom left corner. The task will continue running in the background without interrupting your computer tasks.
View Results in "Watch & Listen Later"
Once translated, go to the "Watch & Listen Later" list on TransGull Desktop to view the bilingual transcript and listen to the audio at any time.
Advanced Feature: Share Translated Audio
If you wish to share the translated audio content with colleagues or friends:
After translation is complete, click the "Share" button in the bottom right corner of the viewer page.
Click "Save Image" (generates a poster with a QR code) or "Copy Link".
Recipients can simply click the shared link or use the "Scan" feature in the TransGull Mobile App to scan the QR code and view the full translation and bilingual subtitles for free.
