Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will I lose audio quality?
A: At 128 kbps you’ll barely notice a difference. For speech and podcasts, 96 kbps is often indistinguishable. You can test different bitrates to find your sweet spot.
Q: Can I compress stereo files?
A: Yes—our compressor handles both mono and stereo MP3s, keeping channel separation intact.
Q: Is my audio kept private?
A: Absolutely. All decoding and encoding happens locally in your browser. We never upload or store your files on our servers.
Q: What file size limits apply?
A: Most modern browsers can handle MP3s up to ~100 MB. Very large files may be slower to process or may hit device memory limits.
Tips for Best Results
- Trim silence before compression to save extra KB.
- Normalize volume so quieter passages aren’t lost at lower bitrates.
- Test different bitrates (e.g., 128 kbps vs 96 kbps) to balance quality and size.
