Make lossless FLAC music smaller and easier to play by creating a bitrate-controlled MP3 listening copy. No signup, no software, and local browser processing for files from your device.
Drop a FLAC or another supported file here to convert, or import from:
FLAC is a strong archive format, but many cars, portable players, and sharing workflows are simpler with MP3. Create a smaller portable library while keeping the lossless source intact.
Select 192, 256, or 320 kbps based on listening needs, preview the combined estimate, and batch convert up to 10 tracks at a time.
Upload FLAC or another supported source while this workflow keeps MP3 as the destination format.
Convert one file or process up to 10 tracks sequentially, then download individual MP3 files or a ZIP.
Choose compatible encoding settings, retain detected source parameters where possible, and estimate the MP3 size before conversion.
FLAC is lossless and MP3 is lossy. The MP3 copy is more compatible and smaller, but it is not a lossless replacement for the original FLAC.
Treat the MP3 as a delivery copy: upload FLAC, choose bitrate, compare estimated storage, and keep the original archive.
Drop one file into the uploader, or choose Batch Convert for up to 10 files. Source formats and technical details are detected automatically.
Choose the available MP3 settings or keep compatible source parameters, then review the estimated output size.
Start sequential browser processing, preview a single result, or save batch files individually or together in a ZIP archive.
Choose this format direction when MP3's compatibility or workflow fit matters more than keeping the original FLAC container.
Create MP3 copies for devices, car systems, and apps that do not support FLAC reliably.
Reduce the transfer size of lossless tracks while choosing the MP3 bitrate that fits the delivery.
Keep a lossless FLAC archive and use MP3 duplicates for travel, streaming, and everyday playback.
These recommendations are specific to FLAC sources and MP3 delivery rather than generic conversion advice.
Keep FLAC as the lossless master and use MP3 for phones, cars, USB players, and fast transfers.
192 kbps suits casual portable listening; 256 or 320 kbps is a stronger choice for music libraries and review copies.
Convert up to 10 tracks sequentially and download the results together without sending local files to a conversion queue.
The formats solve different delivery needs. Keep the source when you may need its original quality or metadata, and create MP3 as the working or listening copy.
| Format detail | FLAC | MP3 |
|---|---|---|
| Format type | losslessly compressed audio | lossy compressed audio |
| Typical file size | Medium to large | Small |
| Quality model | Lossless | Lossy |
| Best used for | Archiving, high-quality libraries, and future conversion | Everyday playback, sharing, websites, cars, and older devices |
| Compatibility | Strong in modern players, but not universal on older hardware | Near-universal |
The MP3 should be substantially smaller than the FLAC. Keep the FLAC as the archive master when storage allows.
Add a FLAC file, confirm MP3 as the output, select Convert Audio, and download the finished file. The conversion runs in your browser for files chosen from your device.

Files selected from your device are decoded and encoded locally in the browser. Imports from a link, Dropbox, or Google Drive first use the selected provider and configured import service.
Single files are limited to 200 MB. Batch mode accepts up to 10 files or 500 MB total and processes them sequentially to reduce browser memory pressure.
Yes. Switch to Batch Convert, add up to 10 supported files, and download each MP3 result separately or together in a ZIP archive.
Yes. MP3 remains the output for this focused page, but the uploader accepts every supported audio source and MP4 audio input. Use the main Audio Converter to choose a different output.
No. Keep FLAC when possible because it is the lossless master and can create future formats without compounding lossy compression.
192 kbps reduces storage substantially, while 256 or 320 kbps is appropriate when listening quality matters more than the smallest possible file.
Convert MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, AAC, AIFF, WMA, Opus, and AMR, with optional MP4 audio input and ALAC output.
Convert MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WEBM, FLV, or WMV entirely in your browser.
Detect monophonic pitch, clean up timing, transpose notes, preview the result, and export a standard MIDI file.
