WAV to MP3 converter
Make a small MP3 from a large WAV recording, for sharing, a podcast or a phone.
Accepts
WAV audio (.wav). Other file types are not converted on this page; the File Converter hub takes every kind it knows.
How to convert
- The WAV is decoded by this browser and encoded as MP3 with LAME, which runs on this page. No engine download is needed.
- Pick the bitrate: 128 kbps is fine for speech, 192 or 320 kbps keeps more detail in music.
Your files stay on this device. Nothing is uploaded: the conversion runs in your browser, and the file is never sent to PartPriced Tools or to any other server.
Questions
