Play any audio file in your browser
Drop in an MP3, WAV, FLAC, or OGG and hit play. Waveform, playlist queue, speed control, loop, keyboard shortcuts — no install, no upload, no account.
How to Play Audio Files Online
No account, no upload — three steps on your own device.
Drop Your Audio
One file or a whole playlist — MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, M4A, AAC, Opus, AIFF, up to 200 MB each. It decodes right in the browser.
See the Waveform
The full shape of the track appears the moment decoding finishes. Click anywhere on it to jump straight to that spot.
Play with Full Control
Play, pause, scrub, change speed, loop, mute — with keyboard shortcuts (Space, ← → for 10 seconds, M, L).
Why Notevibes Audio Player
Most online players want your file on their server first. This one never asks.
Visual Waveform
See the full shape of the track the moment it decodes, and click anywhere on it to seek — no fiddling with a thin progress bar.
Playlist Queue
Drop several files at once and they play through automatically. Click any track to jump to it, add more mid-listen, remove the ones you're done with.
Speed 0.5× to 2×
Seven presets. Slow down for transcription or language practice, speed up to power through long podcasts and lectures.
One-Click Loop
Press L or click Loop and the track restarts forever — for music practice, language drills, or background audio while you work.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Space plays and pauses, ← and → skip 10 seconds, M mutes, L toggles loop. Your hands never leave the keyboard.
Never Uploaded
The file is decoded on your own device. Nothing crosses the network — playback even keeps working offline once the page has loaded.
Nothing to Upload, Nothing to Leak
Playback happens on your own device. Your file never touches a server — which is a stronger promise than any “we delete it later”.

The Player for Files That Just Landed
Someone sends you an audio file and suddenly it’s a project: which app opens it, does this laptop even have one installed, why is the default player asking for an update. Most “online player” sites solve that by making you upload the file first — which is slower and means a stranger’s server now has your audio. This page skips both problems: drop the file and it plays, right here, without going anywhere.
More than a play button
You get the controls that matter for actually working with audio: a full waveform you can click to seek — drawn by the same renderer as the Notevibes editor — seven speeds from 0.5× to 2×, a loop toggle, and keyboard shortcuts so your hands stay put. Drop several files and they queue up as a playlist that plays straight through.
Private because it never leaves
Interview recordings, meeting audio, an unreleased demo — plenty of files shouldn’t be handed to a random website just to be heard. Here the browser decodes the file on your own device, so there’s no upload to worry about, no queue to wait in, and nothing to delete afterwards. It even keeps working if your connection drops after the page loads.
Free with no strings
No account, no watermark on anything, no daily cap — playback costs us nothing because your device does the work. Files up to 200 MB each, which covers audiobooks, full podcast episodes, and long rehearsal recordings.
When listening isn’t enough
If the file won’t decode or you need a different format, the audio converter works the same no-upload way. Need to cut out a section? The audio trimmer handles that in seconds. And for real edits — fades, cleanup, effects — open the file in the online audio editor.
Need to Do More Than Listen?
The full Notevibes editor trims, mixes, cleans up, and applies AI tools to your audio — then exports to MP3 or WAV.

Audio Player FAQ
Are my audio files uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read and decoded entirely in your browser — you can confirm in your browser's network tab that no requests are made when you drop a file. There is nothing for us to store or delete.
What audio formats can I play?
MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, M4A, AAC, Opus, AIFF, and WebM — anything your browser can decode plays here, up to 200 MB per file.
Can I play more than one file?
Yes. Drop several files at once (or add more later) and they queue up as a playlist that plays through automatically. Click any track in the list to jump to it.
What are the keyboard shortcuts?
Space toggles play/pause, ← and → skip backward and forward 10 seconds, M mutes, and L toggles loop. Shortcuts work whenever the page has focus and you're not typing in an input.
Can I change the playback speed?
Yes — seven preset speeds from 0.5× to 2×. Slow audio down for transcription or language practice, or speed it up to review podcasts and lectures faster.
Is the audio player really free?
Yes. Because playback runs on your device rather than our servers, there's nothing to meter — no account, no sign-up, no caps on file count or listening time.
Does it work on phones and tablets?
Yes — any modern mobile browser works. Tap-to-seek on the waveform and all the transport controls work on touch screens.
Can I download or convert the file here?
This page is a player — the file you drop is already on your device. If you need a different format, the Notevibes audio converter runs the same no-upload way, and the online audio editor handles trims and effects.
