Is this online voice recorder free?

Yes. Recording and saving MP3 or WAV are free, with no account and no watermark. Turning a recording into text or a cloned voice uses credits.

Are my recordings uploaded?

No. They are recorded and saved in your browser. A take leaves your device only if you send it to the transcriber or voice cloning.

How long can I record?

There is no time limit. A recording is held in your browser’s memory until you save it, so for sessions of an hour or more, stop and save as you go.

Why is there no sound, or very little?

The browser may be using another microphone, or it may be muted. Choose the right one from the list, check the level, and allow the microphone in the address bar if you blocked it.

Can I pause and resume the recording?

Yes. Pause keeps the recording open, and Resume carries on in the same file, so there is no gap to cut later.

Can I turn my recording into text?

Yes. Press Turn into text under a take, and the transcriber writes out every word.

How do you record your voice online?

Open the online voice recorder, press Record and allow the microphone when your browser asks. Speak at a hand’s width from the microphone while the level bar moves without reaching red, then press Stop. The recording appears in the list as an MP3 to download; choose WAV instead if you will edit it. Nothing needs installing, and the recording is made in your browser.

An audio recorder online that helps you sound good

Everything a voice memo app does, plus what a good recording needs.

A level meter that tells you what to fix

The recorder watches the input while you speak and says it plainly: no sound from this microphone, too quiet, or too loud and clipping. Check the microphone before you start, so the first take is the good one.

Voice or Music in one click

For speech, the browser’s noise suppression, echo cancellation and automatic volume clean up the room; on our street sample they lowered the traffic by about 16 dB without making the voice quieter. For an instrument or singing, Music turns them all off so nothing is filtered out.

Every take kept

Record as many takes as you like. Each one stays in the list with its waveform while the site is open, even if you go to another tool and come back. Play them, rename them and keep the best.

MP3 or WAV, made in your browser

Each take becomes an MP3 as soon as you stop: 128 kbps for a mono voice, 192 kbps for stereo, or the quality you choose. Pick WAV for editing. The file is encoded on your own device and saved under the take’s name.

Silence at the ends trimmed

Turn on Trim silence at the ends and the quiet before your first word and after your last is cut from the saved file, so a voice note starts the moment you speak.

From a recording to text or a cloned voice

Send a take to the transcriber to get every word as text, or to voice cloning to make an AI voice from it. Cut it in the trimmer, or join several takes into one file.

Online voice recorder samples

One street voice memo, read by a library voice over a recorded street, played into the browser’s microphone and recorded with this audio recorder online twice: once in Voice, once in Music. Play both and listen to the traffic.

Voice recorder online guide: clear recordings on any device

Recording on a computer

Any laptop microphone works with an online voice recorder, and a USB microphone or a headset sounds better. Plug it in before you open the page, then choose it from the microphone list; the browser names your microphones once you have allowed it to use one.

If the browser asked and you clicked Block, allow the microphone again from the lock or camera icon in the address bar, then press Record.

Recording on a phone

To record voice online on a phone, open the page in your phone’s browser, press Start recording and allow the microphone. Hold the phone the way you would for a call, a little below your mouth, so your breath doesn’t hit the microphone.

Keep the screen on while you record: a phone that locks may stop the browser from recording. Save the take when you finish, and it goes to your downloads or Files.

How to get a clear recording

Most of a good recording happens before you press Record.

1Distance: keep the microphone about a hand’s width from your mouth, slightly to the side for the letters p and b.
2Room: a room with curtains, a sofa or clothes absorbs echo; a bare kitchen or bathroom adds it.
3Level: speak at your normal volume and watch the bar. It should move clearly but never reach red.
4Noise: switch off fans and close windows. Noise suppression helps, but less noise to start with sounds best.

Record ten seconds, play it back and listen once on headphones. It takes a moment and saves a whole retake.

Voice or Music: when to use each

Voice turns on the three clean-up switches every browser offers: noise suppression lowers steady background noise, echo cancellation removes sound coming back from your speakers, and automatic volume evens out loud and quiet moments. They are made for speech, calls and voice notes.

For a guitar, a piano, singing or anything musical, choose Music. The clean-up treats music as noise and can make it sound watery, so Music records what the microphone hears. For an AI voice clone sample, Music is better too, because the clone should learn your real voice.

MP3 or WAV?

MP3 is small and plays everywhere: a minute of mono voice at 128 kbps is under 1 MB. Choose it for voice notes, messages, lectures and anything you share.

WAV keeps every sample without compression, at about 5 MB a minute. Choose it if you will edit, mix or master the recording, then make an MP3 at the end with the WAV to MP3 converter.

After recording: text, a cloned voice, a trim

A recorded interview, meeting or lecture can go straight to the transcriber, which writes out every word with speakers and times. A clean minute of your own voice can become an AI voice in voice cloning, and then read any text.

To cut a mistake, open the take in the audio trimmer. To put several takes together, send them all to the audio joiner in the order you recorded them.
