Flux Multilingual

deepgram/flux-multilingual

Deepgram's multilingual edition of Flux conversational STT, released April 2026, covering English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian and Dutch in one streaming model. Each turn event lists the detected languages, and hints can change mid-stream.

API
import WebSocket from "ws";
import { readFile } from "node:fs/promises";

// Use mono, 16 kHz, signed 16-bit little-endian PCM.
const audio = await readFile("recording.pcm");
const url = new URL("/v1/audio/transcriptions/stream", process.env.AUDIOLAB_API_URL);
url.protocol = url.protocol === "https:" ? "wss:" : "ws:";
const socket = new WebSocket(url, {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.AUDIOLAB_API_KEY}` },
});
socket.on("open", () => socket.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: "session.start", model: "deepgram/flux-multilingual",
  encoding: "pcm_s16le", sample_rate: 16000, channels: 1,
})));
socket.on("message", (data) => {
  const event = JSON.parse(data.toString());
  console.log(event);
  if (event.type === "session.started") {
    for (let offset = 0; offset < audio.length; offset += 3200)
      socket.send(audio.subarray(offset, offset + 3200));
    socket.send(JSON.stringify({ type: "session.finish" }));
  }
});

Provider Notes

Nova 3 and Nova 2 support both uploaded audio and live streaming. Set diarize=true or provide diarize_model; AudioLab sends only diarize_model because Deepgram rejects requests that combine both flags. Flux General English and Flux General Multilingual are realtime-only conversational models; they use Flux end-of-turn controls and reject diarization. AudioLab maps common keyterms to Deepgram keyterm/keyword controls and rejects unsupported translation before dispatch.

import { readFile } from "node:fs/promises";

// Use mono, 16 kHz, signed 16-bit little-endian PCM.
const audio = await readFile("recording.pcm");

url.protocol = url.protocol === "https:" ? "wss:" : "ws:";
const socket = new WebSocket(url, {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.AUDIOLAB_API_KEY}` },
