How to reverse audio online

  1. Choose an audio file, record your voice or try the sample. Stop recording to preview your voice before reversing it. Audio can be up to 100 MB and 10 minutes long.
  2. Pick MP3, WAV, FLAC or OGG. For MP3 and OGG, choose a bitrate.
  3. Select Reverse audio, compare the result with your original, then download it.

To reverse just one part of a recording, trim a clip first. High-resolution or multichannel recordings may need a shorter clip.

What happens when audio plays backwards?

The last sound becomes the first. Speech turns into unfamiliar syllables, and sounds with a quick attack and a long decay build up toward their ending. Try it on a voice note, a drum hit or a melody. Stereo channels stay together, and the clip keeps its original speed and length.

Silence moves too: a quiet gap at the end becomes a quiet start. You can remove quiet edges before reversing.

Can I reverse an MP3 and save it as WAV?

Yes. Choose the output format before processing. Every download is encoded again: MP3 and OGG add lossy compression, while WAV and FLAC avoid another lossy encode. WAV exports use 16-bit audio. Converting an MP3 to WAV cannot restore detail already lost in the MP3.

To change the pace as well, try Change Speed. For a slower, lower-pitched track with a reverb tail, use Slowed + Reverb.
