Save fileA FINAL CHECK FOR SHORT AUDIO SUBMISSIONS
Keep the right section, compare the sound, then measure length, size and format from the file you actually made. Compare it with the recipient’s limits if you have them.
WAV · MP3; phone AAC-LC checked locally
M4A is a container, AAC is a codec. AAC-LC,1–2 channels only.
AAC-LC in M4A/MP4 or ADTS opens only if this browser decodes it. HE-AAC, ALAC, encrypted/fragmented MP4 are unsupported. Renaming is not conversion. If it fails, export WAV/MP3 in your recorder or try another browser.

100 MiB = 104,857,600 bytes. 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes; 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes. Size rules are compared in whole bytes.
The sample is a 9-second test signal made in your browser: plain tones, not a voice.
Three checks before sending
Choose a precise section with waveform handles or start and end inputs.
Compare the selected clip with gain, chosen mono and sample rate before compression. Hear the final encoded file after creation.
After creating a WAV or MP3, measure duration, bytes and format. If you enter limits, compare them with the final file.
DURATION · SIZE · FORMAT
WAV · MP3 · AAC-LC (browser dependent); AAC-LC in M4A/MP4 or ADTS opens only if this browser decodes it. HE-AAC, ALAC, encrypted/fragmented MP4 are unsupported. Renaming is not conversion. If it fails, export WAV/MP3 in your recorder or try another browser.
Drag the handles on the waveform, tap it, or type the start and end. Listen to the original and the version with your volume.
The file is made, read back and measured. You see its real length, size and format, and how it compares with any rules you entered.
Receivers set different limits. One help page asks for MP3 files of at most 10 MB; another asks for MP3 between 96 and 128 kbps. A file that looks right in an editor can still be a little too long or too large.
Here the saved file itself is measured. MB and MiB are kept apart, and MP3 length includes the few milliseconds the format adds.

Your audio workspace
Processed on this deviceOriginal: selected input unchanged. Edited preview: selected clip + gain + chosen mono/sample rate, before file compression. Hear the final encoded WAV/MP3 in the result player.
Type seconds (12.5) or minutes:seconds (1:02.5). Full-width digits also work.
Handles: arrow keys move 0.01 s, Shift+arrow 0.1 s, Page Up/Down 1 s, Home/End jump to the edges.
