Audio Recorder

A simple audio recorder that runs in your browser, with a live input level meter.

Try it: https://workmanl.github.io/AudioRecorder/

What it does

• Records from your microphone using the browser's MediaRecorder API.
• Shows a live level meter while you record (Web Audio analyser).
• Lists each take with a player and a Download button, newest first.

How to use

1. Open the page and press Record.
2. Allow microphone access when the browser asks.
3. Press Stop to finish the take.
4. Play it back, or press Download to save it.

To run it locally, open index.html from a local web server (for example python3 -m http.server). Browsers only allow microphone access on secure (https) pages or a page served from your own computer.

Privacy

Everything happens in your browser tab. The page loads no scripts, fonts or trackers from anywhere else and sends nothing over the network. Recordings live in memory until you download them, and they are gone when you close or reload the page.

Note on the file format

Downloads are named recording-<date>.mp3, but the audio is in whatever format your browser's MediaRecorder produces by default (usually WebM/Opus in Chrome, Ogg/Opus in Firefox and MP4/AAC in Safari). Most players handle it fine. If a program refuses the file, rename the extension to match (.webm, .ogg or .m4a).

Files

• index.html: the whole tool (HTML, CSS and JavaScript in one file).
