    Speeding up the slow parts?

    Studio removes the long pauses instead, so the episode is tighter and still sounds natural.

    How to change the speed of an audio file

    1. Add your audioPlay it in the preview: it runs at the speed you choose, so you can decide before uploading.
    2. Pick a speed0.75× to slow down, 1.25× to 2× to speed up, or type any value from 0.5 to 3.
    3. Keep the pitch, or let it changeKeeping it makes a voice sound like the same person talking faster. Letting it change sounds like tape played fast.
    4. Change speed and downloadThe result comes back in the format you uploaded, or choose MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC or OGG.

    Getting a good result

    Speeds that stay understandable

    Most people follow speech comfortably at 1.25× to 1.5×. At 2× you catch the gist of a clear speaker. Slowing to 0.75× helps with transcribing by hand, learning a language or working out a piece of music.

    Pitch kept or shifted

    Keeping the pitch stretches or squeezes the sound in time without changing its notes. Shifting it changes both together, as a record does when played at the wrong speed: faster is higher, slower is deeper.

    00:40Questions

    Audio speed changer: common questions

    Does speeding up lower the quality?

    A little. Strong changes can add a slight flutter to voices; 1.25× and 1.5× are clean.

    How long will my file be afterwards?

    Its length divided by the speed. A 30-minute lecture at 1.5× is 20 minutes.

    Can I change the pitch without changing the speed?

    Not with this tool.
