FLAC (.flac) · Max 20 MB
Runs in Firefox and Chrome on any Linux distro. No terminal commands. No package managers. AudioUtils uses WebAssembly to run the conversion engine locally. Your audio stays on your device.
If you prefer the command line, FFmpeg is an alternative. But AudioUtils is faster for quick one-off conversions.
FLAC is lossless. Converting to MP3 reduces file size at the cost of some audio data. Use a high bitrate to minimize loss. The output is identical regardless of which device or browser you use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What MP3 bitrate should I use for FLAC conversion?
320kbps for the best quality, 256kbps for a great balance, 192kbps if storage is tight. Avoid going below 192kbps — the quality drop becomes noticeable.
How much smaller will the MP3 be?
Dramatically smaller. A 30MB FLAC file becomes roughly 5-7MB as MP3 at 320kbps. That's a 75-80% size reduction.
Will the conversion preserve metadata?
The converter preserves basic metadata like title, artist, and album when possible. Cover art may not transfer in all cases.
Can I batch convert multiple FLAC files?
Free users can convert one file at a time. Pro users get batch conversion support for processing entire albums or libraries at once.
