About WAV to MP3 conversion

What this conversion does

WAV: An audio container often holding uncompressed PCM samples. MP3 output contains audio only. The browser must decode the source audio; raising the bitrate cannot restore lost detail.

When to use MP3

  • When an app, device or website requires MP3 instead of WAV.
  • When MP3 is a better fit for your editing, sharing or storage workflow.

What to know

  • Processing takes place in your browser; the selected files are not uploaded.
  • Features that the target format cannot represent may be flattened, simplified or omitted.
  • Files can be large. Source metadata may be omitted.
  • Lossy conversion can reduce quality further. Metadata may be omitted.
  • Compare the exported sound with the original. A larger bitrate cannot restore detail already lost, and codec availability depends on the browser.
