Bitrate is the amount of data used per second of audio, measured in kilobits per second (kbps). File size in MB = (Bitrate in kbps × Duration in seconds) ÷ 8000. For example, a 3-minute (180-second) audio file at 128 kbps = (128 × 180) ÷ 8000 = 2.88 MB. The same file at 320 kbps = 7.2 MB. Halving the bitrate roughly halves the file size, but with some quality cost.

Preguntas Frecuentes
Todo lo que necesitas saber sobre esta herramienta de conversión.
For spoken-word podcasts, 96kbps mono MP3 is the sweet spot — it sounds clear and keeps file sizes small for hosting. For music podcasts or high-quality shows, use 128kbps stereo.
A 3-minute WAV file (~30 MB) can be compressed to about 2.8 MB at 128kbps MP3 — a 90% reduction. At 64kbps it drops to 1.4 MB. The exact ratio depends on the source format and chosen bitrate.
At 128kbps or above, most listeners cannot detect the difference for casual listening. At 64kbps, audio sounds "thinner" and is best reserved for speech content. We recommend listening to a test clip before compressing a large library.
Yes. Uploading a FLAC file and selecting an MP3 or AAC output bitrate will produce a compressed lossy version. This is a common workflow for creating distribution copies from a lossless master.
Yes — re-compressing a lossy file introduces generation loss. Each compression step discards more audio data. Where possible, always compress from a lossless source (WAV or FLAC).
This tool performs file-size compression — reducing bitrate to shrink file size. Dynamic range compression (used in music mastering) controls volume levels and is a different audio processing effect.

Audio File Compression: Bitrate, Quality, and File Size Explained
When people talk about compressing audio files, they usually mean reducing bitrate to shrink file size — not the dynamic range compression used in music production. Understanding how bitrate affects file size and perceptual quality helps you choose the right compression settings for every use case.
How Bitrate Determines File Size
Choosing the Right Bitrate for Your Content
Not all audio content needs the same bitrate. Speech is much more forgiving than music because it occupies a narrower frequency range and listeners are less sensitive to artefacts in the voice frequency band. Music requires higher bitrates to preserve high-frequency detail (cymbals, reverb tails, acoustic instruments).
- Speech / podcasts: 64–96 kbps mono is excellent — clear, intelligible, very small files.
- General music (casual listening): 128 kbps sounds good to most listeners.
- Music (quality-conscious): 192 kbps is noticeably better, recommended for music podcasts.
- Transparent quality: 256 kbps AAC or 320 kbps MP3 — indistinguishable from lossless for most people.
Generation Loss: Why Source Quality Matters
Every re-encoding of a lossy audio file removes more audio data. Converting an MP3 at 128 kbps to AAC at 128 kbps does not produce a better file — it introduces artefacts from both encode stages on top of each other. To avoid generation loss, always compress from a lossless source (WAV or FLAC) whenever possible. If you only have a lossy source, compress to the same or higher bitrate — never lower — to avoid noticeable degradation.
MP3 vs AAC vs OGG for Compression
All three are lossy codecs but with different efficiencies. At equivalent bitrates: OGG Vorbis and AAC both outperform MP3 technically. AAC at 128 kbps typically sounds as good as MP3 at 160 kbps. OGG at quality 5 (~160 kbps VBR) sounds as good as MP3 at 192–224 kbps. For maximum quality at a given file size target, choose AAC (for Apple/web) or OGG (for open-source/game). Use MP3 only when broad legacy compatibility is the priority.
Podcast and Streaming Platform Recommendations
Different platforms have different audio requirements and transcode your uploads on arrival. If you upload a high-bitrate file, the platform transcodes it to their standard. If you upload a low-bitrate file, the platform transcodes from an already-degraded source. Best practice: upload at or above the platform's output bitrate to avoid double transcoding. Spotify outputs up to 320 kbps; upload at least 256 kbps. YouTube uses 126 kbps AAC; uploading at 256 kbps AAC is sufficient. Apple Podcasts recommends 128 kbps stereo M4A. Match these targets with your compressed output.
