# How to turn audio into Vectors

**Assumed Knowledge**: Vectors\

To help transform data into vectors, we open-sourced a library called **VectorHub** (you can explore the hub at hub.vctr.ai). For this, you will need to use Python, and you can run all of the below on Colab.

```
pip install vectorhub[encoders-audio-tfhub]
```

The following model reads in the audio file and then encodes it (turning it into a vector). 

```
from vectorhub.encoders.audio.tfhub import Vggish2Vec
model = Vggish2Vec()
sample = model.read('https://vecsearch-bucket.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/voices/common_voice_en_2.wav')
model.encode(sample)
```

From this - you will have obtained a vector which can now be indexed and stored away for search.
