WAV to MP3 for Email
Email attachments have size limits — usually 25MB. WAV files are way too big for email. Convert to MP3 to shrink them down and send without issues.

WAV (.wav) · Max 20 MB
Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo all cap attachments at 25MB. A single WAV file often exceeds that within minutes of audio. Converting to MP3 at 128kbps keeps file sizes well under the limit.
For voice recordings and meetings, 128kbps mono is plenty. For music, 192kbps stereo sounds great and stays small. AudioUtils converts in your browser — no upload needed, no file touching anyone's server.
Drop your file, convert, download, attach. The whole process takes seconds. No signup, no email address required, no watermarks.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much smaller will my MP3 be compared to WAV?
About 10x smaller. A 50MB WAV file converts to roughly 5MB as MP3 at 320kbps. At 128kbps, it's even smaller — around 2MB.
What bitrate should I use?
320kbps for the best quality, 192kbps for a good balance of quality and size, 128kbps for voice recordings or podcasts where size matters more than fidelity.
Will I lose audio quality?
Yes, MP3 is a lossy format. But at 320kbps, the difference from WAV is nearly imperceptible to most listeners. For casual listening and sharing, it's more than enough.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your audio files never leave your device.
