What this audio tool does

Decode a FLAC file in a compatible browser and export its PCM audio as a standard WAV file.

The browser decodes the FLAC bitstream to an AudioBuffer. Its PCM samples are optionally mixed to mono and written into a real RIFF/WAVE 16-bit PCM container.

FLAC decoding support varies by browser. If decoding fails, try a current Chromium or Firefox build. This converter does not pretend to convert unsupported files.

Supported formats and limits

Audio decoding follows the formats supported by your browser. WAV export uses 16-bit PCM. No file is uploaded.
