Change Volume

Audio Processing Laboratory

Normalize, boost, or reduce an audio track's loudness.

What is Change Volume?

Change Volume raises or lowers the loudness of an audio file and saves the adjusted version, all inside your browser. Drop in an MP3, WAV, M4A, or OGG file and move a single slider from 0% up to 400% of the original level. The gain is applied with the Web Audio API on your device, so your file is never uploaded.

How to use Change Volume

  1. Add your audio

    Drag a file onto the drop zone or click to browse. The tool decodes it and shows a playable preview alongside its name, size, and duration.

  2. Set the volume

    Drag the Volume slider between 0% and 400%. 100% keeps the original level, values below reduce it, and values above amplify it.

  3. Watch for clipping

    Boosting well above 100% can push loud peaks past the maximum and cause distortion. Nudge the level down if the result sounds harsh.

  4. Apply and download

    Click Apply & download to render the new level and save it. All processing happens locally, so nothing is uploaded.

Common uses

  • Boost a quiet recording that is hard to hear
  • Turn down a clip that is uncomfortably loud
  • Even out the level of a voice memo before sharing
  • Amplify a faint interview or lecture capture
  • Reduce a backing track so it sits under narration
  • Rescue audio recorded too far from the microphone
