What Is an Audio Reverser?

An audio reverser changes the playback order of a recording so the last sample becomes the first and the entire sound plays backwards. Use it to reverse a song, inspect speech in reverse, or turn an ordinary recording into a new transition or sound effect.

This online audio reverser can process the complete file or one precise section. Compare the source with a reversed preview before exporting the finished result.

Reverse a full file or selected section

The complete waveform is selected by default, and draggable handles plus exact time fields let you isolate one section.

Original and reversed preview

Switch between both versions of the selected audio and hear the change before processing the complete output.

Optional speed and pitch controls

Keep the original timing and key for a clean reverse, or change playback speed and pitch independently for a creative effect.

Browser-based workflow

Decode, select, preview, reverse, and prepare the result directly in the browser without installing an audio editor.

How to Reverse Audio Online

Reverse a song, voice recording, sample, or sound effect in three steps.

  1. 1

    Add an audio file

    Choose a file from your device, record audio with your microphone, or import a supported public audio link.

  2. 2

    Choose what to reverse

    Keep the whole file selected or drag the waveform edges to isolate a section. Compare Original and Reversed, then optionally adjust speed or pitch.

  3. 3

    Select a format and export

    Choose WAV, MP3, M4A, FLAC, or OGG, reverse the selected audio, preview the complete result, and download it.

Reverse a Full Track or Selected Section

Use the complete waveform for a backwards version of the whole recording, or select only the moment that should become an effect.

Reverse the complete track

Leave the default selection unchanged when the entire song, recording, sample, or sound effect should play backwards.

Reverse one exact section

Drag the start and end handles or enter times in seconds to isolate a vocal phrase, cymbal hit, chord, transition, or spoken word.

Check the selected duration

The workbench shows whether the whole file or a smaller section is selected and calculates the output duration before export.

Preview before full processing

The comparison player prepares up to 20 seconds from the selection so adjustments remain quick even with longer source files.

Reverse Songs, Voice Recordings, and Sound Effects

Playing audio backwards can create a finished edit, reveal a different rhythm, or provide raw material for a new production effect.

Reverse a song or music clip

Hear a melody, beat, or complete track in reverse, or isolate one musical phrase for a backwards edit.

Reverse voice and speech

Play a spoken phrase backwards, compare it with the original, and slow the result when you want to hear individual sounds more clearly.

Build music transitions

Reverse cymbals, piano chords, guitar notes, vocals, and impacts to create swells that lead into a beat or scene change.

Design unusual sound effects

Transform ordinary recordings into risers, textures, drones, and unsettling effects for video, games, and creative audio projects.

Original vs Reversed Audio

Reversing changes sample order, not just the position of the playhead. Duration remains the same unless you also change playback speed.

VersionPlayback orderDurationBest for

Supported Input and Export Formats

Use common browser-compatible audio files as the source, then choose the output format that fits editing, archiving, playback, or sharing.

Upload MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, AAC, OGG, or WebM

The uploader accepts these common audio formats. Actual decoding support can vary slightly by browser and operating system.

Export WAV or FLAC

Choose WAV for uncompressed PCM audio or FLAC when you want lossless compression and a smaller file than WAV.

Export MP3 or M4A

Choose widely compatible compressed audio for phones, browsers, messaging, and everyday sharing.

Export OGG

Use OGG for workflows and web applications that prefer the open Ogg Vorbis format.

Online Audio Reverser FAQ

How do I reverse audio online?

Add an audio file, keep the complete waveform selected or choose one section, compare the Original and Reversed preview, select an export format, and click Reverse Audio.

Yes. Upload a song in a supported audio format and reverse the complete track or one selected musical section. Preview the backwards result before exporting it.

Yes. Drag the waveform start and end handles or enter exact times in seconds. Only that selected section is included in the reversed output.

Yes. Choose an existing voice recording or use the built-in recorder, then compare the spoken phrase with its reversed version before export.

Yes. Playback speed ranges from 25% to 200%, and pitch can move from -12 to +12 semitones. Leave both at their defaults when you only want clean audio reversal.

Export the reversed result as WAV, MP3, M4A, FLAC, or OGG. The format selector appears beside the Reverse Audio command.

A clean reverse at 100% speed keeps the same duration as the selected audio. Lower speed settings make the result longer, and higher speed settings make it shorter.

No. The original file remains unchanged and available for comparison. The tool creates a separate reversed result for preview and download.

Files selected from your device are decoded, selected, previewed, reversed, and rendered locally in the browser. Link imports may require fetching public media before local processing begins.
