The read text was taken from the Spanish version of WikiProject Spoken Wikipedia, referred to as Wikipedia Grabada. The transcripts were developed for this release.

Audio is presented as 16kHz, 16-bit, single channel flac files. When uncompressed, they produce PCM wav files. Transcripts are contained in a single plain text file encoded as UTF-8.
