Private browser audio tools

Trim, convert & improve audio

Trim a recording, change volume, shorten quiet gaps, or convert to MP3 or WAV. Choose a task, then a file. Processing stays on your device.

Your selected file stays on this device. No upload, account, or server-side media job.

Trim audio

Choose the part of a recording you want to keep.

Make audio louder

Raise the volume and check the result for distortion.

Balance audio volume

Adjust overall loudness with peak or RMS presets.

Compress audio

Create a smaller MP3 and compare its sound and size.

Convert audio

Save a supported audio file as MP3 or WAV.

Video to MP3 or WAV

Save a separate audio file from your video.

Shorten quiet pauses

Reduce quiet gaps in a recording and review the timing.

Reduce background noise

Try light cleanup for steady noise in speech.

Browser-local workspace

Choose a local source to begin.

Choose one local audio file—or a local video on the conversion route—then create a separate, verified MP3 or WAV result. The source is not sent to Aftermath, modified, or handed to a fallback service.

No upload, account, or server-side media job.

The local workspace loads after you choose a source.

One shared workspace, eight focused outcomes

The shared workspace has a focused starting point for cutting, volume, normalization, compression, conversion, extraction, silence shortening, and lightweight speech cleanup. It is not a browser DAW, multitrack editor, or AI restoration studio.

Processing and verification stay local

The media engine loads only after the workspace is opened. It checks the selected track, performs supported work in a dedicated worker, then reopens the completed MP3 or WAV result before enabling its download. Unsupported inputs produce a local error rather than an upload.

Private browser handling

Your source remains under your control.

Aftermath reads, decodes, processes, encodes, and verifies the selected file in this browser. It preserves the source and offers a separate MP3 or WAV result; unsupported inputs are never sent to an upload fallback.

Read the processing boundary

Choose a tool

Choose an audio task for one local source when you need trimming, level adjustment, compression, conversion, extraction, silence shortening, or lightweight noise cleanup. The browser creates and reopens a separate MP3 or WAV result when the selected operation can finish. Codec support, audible quality, performance, and memory use still depend on the source, browser, device, and task.

What to choose and what you get

What to choose

  • one audio file with a primary track supported by the bundled local decoder

Result

  • a separately downloaded MP3 or 16-bit PCM WAV result

Supported formats

  • Accepted formats: MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, Ogg, Opus, FLAC.
  • Output formats: MP3, WAV.

Browser support and permissions

  • Modern browser with JavaScript and support for the selected audio container and codec; memory and performance vary by device.
  • No camera, microphone, or screen permission is needed.

Choose by the result you need

NeedFocused routeWhy it matches
Keep one selected interval from an audio file.Cut or trim an audio fileThe cutter owns explicit start and end times plus MP3 or WAV output.
Create a smaller MP3 and inspect its actual bytes.Compress audio and measure the output sizeCompression exposes quality and approximate one-pass byte choices.
Turn a supported primary track into MP3 or PCM WAV.Convert supported audio to MP3 or WAVConversion re-encodes the full track and reopens the result.
Increase level with linked peak protection.Increase the volume of an audio fileThe gain route reports limiter reduction instead of claiming unclipped restoration.
Normalize measured peak or RMS toward a selected target.Set a consistent listening level with a measured target.The normalization route distinguishes its measurements from LUFS mastering.
Extract a video track into a new MP3 or WAV.Extract the main audio track from a videoThe extraction route accepts video and discards frames while checking the audio result.
Shorten long low-level runs without speech recognition.Shorten silence deliberately, not every natural pause.The silence route exposes its level-based pause-retention behavior.
Reduce steady rumble and hiss around speech.Reduce steady background noise in speech audioThe cleanup route is bounded filtering, not AI source separation.

Worked example

The shared workspace has a focused starting point for cutting, volume, normalization, compression, conversion, extraction, silence shortening, and lightweight speech cleanup. It is not a browser DAW, multitrack editor, or AI restoration studio.

What you can do

Free Local Audio Tools — Trim, Compress & Convert

Choose another tool when

  • Choose another audio route when the goal is a different edit, format, or level treatment.

If it does not work

  • Codec or browser limits can produce a warning instead of a downloadable result.

Things to know

  • Codec support, performance, and memory use vary by browser, device, source, and operation.

Privacy boundary

The selected audio stays in the current browser session and is not sent to an Aftermath processing service. How local processing is verified.

What this tool verifies

Checks the displayed limits and reports or creates a separately downloaded MP3 or 16-bit PCM WAV result from one audio file with a primary track supported by the bundled local decoder.

Check before sharing

A local audio result does not guarantee universal codec support, audible quality, or platform acceptance.
