Audio Converter

What is Audio Converter?

Audio Converter changes your audio files from one format to another. Have an MP3 file but need it as WAV? Or want to turn a large WAV into a smaller MP3? This tool does that in seconds, right in your browser.

Why Would You Need to Convert Audio Files?

Here are some common situations where converting audio comes in handy:

• Device compatibility: Your car stereo only plays MP3, but your files are in FLAC format
• Saving storage space: WAV files are huge - convert them to MP3 or OGG to free up disk space
• Professional editing: Your audio software needs WAV files, but you downloaded MP3s
• Sharing files: Send smaller MP3 files instead of large lossless files via email
• Podcast production: Convert your recordings to the right format for publishing

• Converting from lossy to lossy (MP3 to OGG) can reduce quality - try to start with the original file when possible
• Use FLAC or WAV when you need perfect quality and file size doesn't matter
• MP3 at 192 kbps is a good balance between quality and file size for most music
• For voice recordings and podcasts, 128 kbps MP3 is usually enough

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between MP3 and FLAC?

MP3 compresses audio by removing some data you can't easily hear. Files are small but quality is slightly reduced. FLAC compresses without losing any quality, but files are much larger.

Will converting affect my audio quality?

Converting to lossy formats (MP3, OGG, AAC) removes some audio data. For the best quality, convert from your original source file rather than from another compressed format.

Which format should I choose?

Use MP3 if you want files that play everywhere. Use FLAC if quality matters most. Use OGG for a good mix of quality and size, especially for games or web projects.

How large can my files be?

You can upload audio files up to 100MB. For larger files, consider splitting them first.

Are my files kept private?

Yes. Your files are processed on our server and automatically deleted after conversion. We don't store or share your audio.
