How In-Browser MediaRecorder Compresses Audio Streams
UNIT utilizes the native browser MediaRecorder API. Instead of uploading uncompressed PCM audio
over the internet, your browser's internal C++ media pipeline encodes incoming audio chunks using the Opus codec
on a dedicated background worker thread, ensuring smooth recording with zero lag.
How to Record Audio Online
Click Record Voice, allow microphone access, and speak. A live timer shows the elapsed
duration. Press Stop & Finalize to finish, listen to the recording in the built-in player,
and download it as a WebM audio file. Everything happens in your browser, so no account or upload is required.
Good uses for a browser voice recorder
Record voice notes, dictation, interview drafts, music rehearsals, podcast scripts, or voiceovers. If your
recording sounds quiet or noisy, run the microphone test first to check input
level and clipping.
Playing WebM files
WebM Opus plays natively in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and most modern players such as VLC. If you need MP3 or WAV,
convert the downloaded file with any free audio converter.
Voice Recorder FAQ
Is there a time limit for recording?
Sharing.io.vn does not set a time limit. Long recordings are limited only by your device memory and browser.
Where is my recording stored?
The audio is kept in your browser memory until you download it or close the page. It is never uploaded to a
server.
Why can I not record any sound?
Check that the correct microphone is selected, that it is not muted in your operating system, and that
microphone permission is allowed for this site.
Which audio format does the recorder use?
The recorder saves WebM with the Opus codec, which offers high quality at small file sizes.
