About the Audio Recorder
Records audio from your microphone using the browser's MediaRecorder API. The audio stream is captured in real time and visualized as a live waveform using the Web Audio API's AnalyserNode. Completed recordings are saved as WebM/Opus (default MediaRecorder format) for immediate download. Multiple recordings can be made in one session.
