One sound. Two ways to play.

Go a little further: learn the backwards sounds, record a new take, and hear the surprise.

Familiar sounds. Unfamiliar shapes.

A voice becomes a texture. A beat becomes a swell. A tiny melody feels new again. Explore the art of listening in reverse.

These are original abstract illustrations, not recordings or real analysis results. Use the audio reverser above to hear your own sound backwards; use the reverse singing challenge for guided two-take practice.

A few practical answers

Reverse audio: questions, answered

What goes in, what comes out, and what happens to your sound.

Still have questions?

Choose a file or record a voice clip, then press Play reversed. You can compare the original, choose a section, and download the reverse as WAV. No account is required.

Yes, where your browser supports the input format. MP3 and WAV usually work; M4A, AAC, FLAC, OGG, and WebM depend on the browser and codec. Export is 16-bit WAV.

The audio tool processes files and recordings locally in browser memory. It does not upload your audio. The website still makes ordinary network requests for pages, optional analytics, and advertising; see the Privacy Policy.

The tool decodes your input and exports uncompressed 16-bit WAV. A WAV can be much larger than a compressed MP3. It does not recover detail already lost to compression, and export uses the browser-decoded sample rate.

Import mono or stereo files up to 25 MB and 5 minutes. Microphone recording stops at 60 seconds. The singing challenge limits each take to 60 seconds. Very large or unsupported inputs show an error.

Yes. Open Reverse Singing Challenge to keep your original, practice its reverse at a slower speed, record a separate imitation, and reverse that take for the reveal. Use the homepage for quick file or voice reversal.

You know the sound. Meet its other side.

Start with a few seconds. You might want to listen twice.
