How to use Compress WAV
A WAV stores raw audio. Encoding it as MP3 at 128 kbps keeps it sounding good at around a tenth of the size.
- Choose a bitrate, or a target size, and mono for voice recordings.
- Click the box or drop your audio files.
- Wait while the audio is encoded to MP3 on your device.
- Download the compressed MP3.
