Voice Recorder

Record your voice, trim the takes on a waveform, and export the trimmed range as an MP3. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored.

Record, trim, export
Recording stays in this tab. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is saved.

Your browser will ask for microphone access. Allow it to continue.

How to use

  1. Click Start recording and allow microphone access when your browser asks. A level meter shows your input while the timer runs.
  2. Click Stop when you are done. The take is decoded in your browser and appears as a waveform with its length.
  3. Set the trim start and end in seconds. The waveform dims outside the range, and the trimmed length updates as you type.
  4. Click Preview trim to hear just the range, then Export MP3 to download it. Record as many takes as you like and export any of them.
  5. Leaving the page discards every take. There is nothing to clean up afterwards.

Frequently asked questions

Is my recording uploaded or stored anywhere?

No. Recording, trimming, and MP3 encoding all run inside your browser tab. The audio never leaves your device, nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and the page sets no cookies. Takes live in the tab's memory and are gone when you close or reload the page. The microphone permission you grant is local to this site, and you can revoke it in the browser at any time. Ad slots on the page are served by third-party networks, which follow their own privacy policies.

Why does the browser record WebM or MP4 before I export?

Live capture uses whatever container your browser ships: Chrome and Firefox record Opus in WebM, Safari records AAC in MP4. The page picks the container your browser supports. The export step converts the trimmed take to MP3, so the file you download is always .mp3 regardless of which container the recording used.

How exact is the trim?

The times you type become whole sample positions at the recording's sample rate. The start rounds down to the nearest sample and the end rounds up, so audio on both sides of a boundary is kept. At the common 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz rates that puts each boundary within about 0.00002 seconds of the time you asked for.

What quality is the exported MP3?

Exports encode at a fixed 128 kbps, the common default for spoken audio. The microphone's own sample rate, usually 44.1 or 48 kHz, is kept as-is. One channel is exported as mono and two as stereo, matching how the take was captured.

Can I record several takes and keep them?

You can record as many takes as the tab's memory allows. Each stop adds a take to the list, and you can trim, preview, export, or discard them one at a time. Nothing is written to disk or to a server, so a reload or a closed tab clears the list for good.
