Everything happens right here in your browser: your file is converted locally on your device with WebAssembly FFmpeg and is never uploaded to any server. Because there is no upload, there is no practical length limit either — multi-hour recordings and files up to 8GB convert just fine, and even a huge file starts instantly.

About AAC to MP3 conversion
AAC is the codec behind most modern audio — Apple Music, YouTube, streaming radio, the sound in nearly every MP4. Sometimes it arrives as a bare .aac file rather than tucked inside an .m4a or a video, and that is where things break: plenty of players, car stereos and upload forms simply do not recognise the extension even though they would happily play the same audio in another wrapper.
This converts AAC to a plain 192kbps MP3 that nothing argues with, running entirely on your own device. No upload, no signup, and files up to 8GB are fine.
Frequently asked questions
Usually just the wrapper. Both normally carry AAC audio; .m4a is an MP4-style container, while a bare .aac file is a raw ADTS stream. Both convert here, and the same audio comes out either way.
At the same bitrate AAC is somewhat more efficient, so converting is a small step down in theory. At 192kbps MP3 that difference is inaudible in normal listening — and you get a file that plays on hardware AAC never reached.
Many players decide what to do from the file extension rather than the contents, and raw ADTS .aac is far less common than .m4a or .mp3. Converting to MP3 removes the guesswork entirely.
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly (FFmpeg). Your recording never leaves your device — that is also why there is no upload wait, no queue and no file-size pricing. For personal recordings, lectures and meetings this matters more than anywhere else.
Up to 8GB on desktop browsers and 2GB on mobile — big enough to pull the audio out of a multi-hour lecture or meeting recording. There is no limit on the number of files, no signup and no watermark.
192kbps, which is transparent for speech and very close to transparent for music. The audio stream is decoded once and encoded once — there is no extra generation loss from server-side re-processing.
Yes — completely free and unlimited, with no watermark, signup or daily quota. Because the conversion runs on your own device instead of our servers, there are no processing costs to charge for.
Yes. It runs in any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox — on Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Linux, iOS and Android. There is nothing to install.
Audio-only work is fast: there is no video to re-encode, so even the soundtrack of a long video converts in well under real time. Files whose audio is already MP3 are rewrapped without re-encoding and finish in seconds.
