You should simply try Google Speech Recognition API, same as Traslator.js do. Speech Recognition API can convert audio into text which can be further played as voice using either Google Translation API or meSpeak.js.

RecordRTC.js can be used only for wav/webm recordings. It is incapable to convert voice into text.

Personally I think Google Translation API is the only "Official" i.e. "non-free" API. Speech Recognition API is naively supported both on chrome and Firefox and it is part of some kind of specification, though submitted by Google developers.
