Convert WAV to MP3
WAV files are huge, about 10 MB per minute, which makes them hard to email, upload or keep on a phone.

WAV is uncompressed audio: the full sound with nothing removed, at about 10 MB per minute. MP3 is the most widely supported compressed audio format; it plays on practically every device.
MP3 at 192 kbps sounds the same as the original to most people at about a tenth of the size. Choose 320 kbps for the best quality, or 128 kbps when size matters most.
What you get
- WAV in, MP3 out
- 128, 192 or 320 kbps
- About ten times smaller
- Trim, fade or cut before you save
- Nothing is uploaded
How to convert WAV to MP3
- Open WAV to MP3 and choose your WAV file.
- MP3 is already selected. Trim or add fades if you like.
- Press Export and the MP3 file is saved.
Tip: Convert from the WAV, not from an MP3 you made earlier: every round of MP3 encoding loses a little more.
Questions
Will I hear a difference?
At 192 or 320 kbps most people can’t tell an MP3 from the original, even on good headphones. MP3 does remove sounds you are unlikely to hear, so keep your WAV as the master copy if you may edit it later.
Can I convert many files at once?
Yes. Batch process converts a whole set of files with the same settings and gives you a zip.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything happens inside your browser, so your files stay on your own computer or phone.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no account, no trial, no watermark and no limit on how many files you convert. Clipabay is kept going by people who choose to buy us a coffee.
