# How to Start Real-Time Translation

### **How to Start Real-Time Translation**

Once you’ve logged in to **Transync AI**, you can begin real-time translation in just a few steps. Follow this guide to choose the right translation mode, set up language pairs, confirm audio input, and manage your translation session efficiently. If you are not sure which mode to use, see [How to Choose a Translation Mode in Transync AI](https://www.transyncai.com/docs/choose-translation-mode/) before starting.

#### **1. Choose Your Translation Mode**

Before choosing languages, select the translation mode that matches your scenario: **One-way Translation**, **Two-way Translation**, or **Multilingual Translation**. In the app, these options may appear as **One way**, **Two way**, and **Multilingual**.

![Select One way, Two way, or Multilingual translation mode in Transync AI](https://www.transyncai.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/01-transync-ai-translation-mode-selector.jpg)
Choose One way, Two way, or Multilingual before starting a real-time translation task.

Use **One-way Translation** for listening scenarios such as classes, lectures, and webinars. Use **Two-way Translation** for conversations and meetings. Use **Multilingual Translation** when one task needs several target languages. For the full comparison and billing rules, read [How to Choose a Translation Mode in Transync AI](https://www.transyncai.com/docs/choose-translation-mode/).

#### **2. Confirm Your Language Pair**

At the top of the main interface, select your **source** and **target** languages — for example, **English ↔ Japanese** or **Chinese ↔ English**.

Choosing the correct language pair ensures accurate and natural translation output. You can also learn more about the features of [real-time translation](https://www.transyncai.com/tools/real-time-translation/)

#### **3. Choose the Right Translation Model**

Before starting translation, choose the model that best fits your scenario.

| Model | Best for | Languages | Strengths | AI Assistant |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ![Monsoon 2.0 model logo](https://www.transyncai.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/monsoon-20-logo.png)**Monsoon 2.0** | Professional meetings, classes, business calls, and most real-time translation scenarios. | **60+ languages** | **Best accuracy and speed**, with strong overall stability. | Supported |
| ![Jetstream 2.0 model logo](https://www.transyncai.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/jetstream-20-logo.png)**Jetstream 2.0** | Less stable network conditions where smoother continuity matters most. | Chinese, Japanese, English | **Strongest stability**, with high accuracy and fast response. | Supported |
| ![Gale 2.0 model logo](https://www.transyncai.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/gale-20-logo.png)**Gale 2.0** | Mainland China users who need faster response for daily conversations and quick translation. | Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Russian | **Faster in Mainland China**, with good accuracy and stability. | Not supported |

For most users, **Monsoon 2.0** is the recommended default model. It provides the best overall accuracy and speed, supports 60+ languages, and works with AI Assistant keywords and context. Use **Jetstream 2.0** when your network connection is less stable. Use **Gale 2.0** if you are in Mainland China and need faster response, but note that Gale 2.0 does not support AI Assistant keywords and context.

#### **4. Check Your Audio Input**

Before starting, confirm that your audio sources are correctly selected:

- **Microphone:** Captures your own speech. Generally, it is necessary to check.
- **Computer Audio:** Captures other participants’ voices from your meeting platform (Zoom, Teams, etc.)or video platform(Youtube, etc.). Both can be enabled simultaneously for full meeting translation. learn more [how to share computer audio](https://www.transyncai.com/docs/how-to-share-computer-audio/)

#### **5. Enable Voice Broadcast (Optional)**

To make translated speech audible to others, toggle on **Voice Broadcast** in the upper-right corner of the translation panel.

You can adjust the volume of the sound output and choose your preferred tone. When enabling voice broadcasting, we recommend using external speakers on your computer.

#### **6. Start, Pause, and Stop Translation**

- Click **Start Translation** to begin real-time translation.
- Use **Pause** when you temporarily don’t need translation — paused time **will not consume your translation quota**.
- Click **Stop** to end the session. After stopping, the **original transcript and translations** will be saved automatically, allowing you to generate a **summary** or **export meeting notes** later.

#### **7. More Settings and Customization**

- **Font Size:** Adjust text size for better readability during long sessions.
- **Display Mode:** Switch between **Show Both** or **Show Translation Only** depending on your preference.
- **Translation Mode:** Choose **One way**, **Two way**, or **Multilingual** before starting the session. Multilingual Translation may consume time based on the number of selected languages. See [How to Choose a Translation Mode in Transync AI](https://www.transyncai.com/docs/choose-translation-mode/) for mode details and billing rules.

#### **8. Set Up the AI Assistant**

You can enhance translation accuracy by configuring the **AI Assistant** before starting a session:

- **Keywords:** Add industry terms, brand names, or personal names to ensure consistent and precise translation.
- **Context:** Provide details such as your **profession**, **background**, and **meeting topic**. This helps Transync AI better understand your communication scenario and produce more accurate, context-aware translations.
