Reverse an entire audio file so it plays from the end back to the beginning.
The entire audio track is reversed from end to beginning.
Play audio backwards for sound design, music experiments, transition effects, puzzles, language exercises, and creative edits. The complete track is reversed, including every channel.
Reversing changes sample order rather than only changing metadata, so the output is a newly encoded audio file. Choose the original format or export a broadly supported MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, or Opus file.
Long recordings need more browser memory because the reverse filter must read the full audio stream before it can write the beginning of the result.
The file keeps the same overall duration and playback rate, but every sound runs backward. Attacks, decays, speech, and melodies therefore sound different even though no separate speed control is applied.
Yes. This page reverses the complete audio track. Use the Audio Editor to cut out a section first when you only want to reverse part of a recording.
Reversing changes the order of samples so the track plays from end to beginning. Polarity inversion multiplies sample values by -1 but keeps their time order unchanged.
Reversing requires a newly encoded result. WAV and FLAC avoid lossy compression, while MP3, M4A, OGG, and Opus can introduce normal encoding changes.
