Each file is converted in your browser in seconds. Save them one by one, or all at once as a ZIP.
MPEG-4 Audio
Apple's everyday music format
M4A is an MPEG-4 audio file, usually containing AAC. It is the standard format of Apple Music, iTunes and the iPhone Voice Memos app.
MPEG-1 Audio Layer III
The universal audio format
MP3 is the most widely supported compressed audio format. It removes sounds the ear barely notices, shrinking music to about a tenth of its CD size.
Audio is converted by ffmpeg running inside your browser. Your files never reach a server.
Queue up to 50 files and download them one by one or together as a ZIP.
Set the bitrate, bit depth, sample rate and channels — or simply keep the sensible defaults.
Add your M4A files to the converter above. MP3 is already selected as the output, so conversion starts right away. When a file is ready, click Download, or use Download all to get a ZIP.
Both formats are lossy, so re-encoding adds a little loss. Choose a bitrate equal to or higher than the original (for example 192–256 kbps) and the difference will be inaudible.
For music, 192 kbps is a good balance and 320 kbps is the highest MP3 quality. For speech and podcasts, 96–128 kbps in mono is enough. Leave the sample rate as the original.
No. The M4A to MP3 conversion runs entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your files are never sent to a server, so even private recordings stay on your device.
Yes. Add up to 50 files; they are converted one after another, and you can download each MP3 file separately or all of them together as a ZIP archive.
