Free online audio visualizer

Free online audio visualizer & waveform video maker

Music Waveform is a free online audio visualizer that turns any song, podcast or voice memo into an animated waveform video you can drop straight into your edit. Everything runs online in your browser, so your audio never leaves your device, and you export a ready-to-composite MP4 in a couple of clicks. No account, no watermark, no upload.

Workflow

How to make a waveform video

  1. Load your audio

    Drop in an MP3, WAV, OGG, M4A/AAC or FLAC file. It’s decoded locally, right in the page.

  2. Pick a style

    Choose from eight waveform shapes and tune the colour, reaction and resolution while you preview in sync with playback.

  3. Export to MP4

    Render a clean MP4 on a black background, ready to composite over your footage in any video editor.

Styles

Eight waveform styles, one track

The eight Music Waveform styles drawn from the same moment of the same track: bars, mirror, radial, scope, area, dots, blob and circle.
The same frame of the same audio, drawn eight ways. Every style takes the same color, reaction and resolution controls, and the preview updates live — so you can click through all eight against your own track before exporting. Which style to use, and when →

Frequently asked questions

Is Music Waveform free?

Yes. Music Waveform is a completely free online audio visualizer, with no account, no watermark, and no upload. It runs entirely in your browser.

Which audio formats are supported?

You can load MP3, WAV, OGG, M4A/AAC and FLAC files. The audio is decoded locally in your browser.

Where does my audio go, and is it uploaded?

Nowhere. All decoding, analysis, rendering and MP4 encoding happen on your device. Your audio file is never uploaded or stored on a server.

Which browser do I need to export an MP4?

Preview works in any modern browser. MP4 export uses the WebCodecs API, so it needs Chrome, Edge, Opera (or another up-to-date Chromium browser) or Safari 17+.

Can I convert an MP3 into an MP4 video?

Yes. Load your MP3, choose a waveform style, and export a ready-to-use MP4 video.

How do I put the waveform over my own video?

The MP4 exports on a black background. Drop it on top of your footage in your video editor and set the blend mode to “Screen”: the black disappears and only the colored waveform shows over your video.

Can I export a waveform with a transparent background?

Yes, two ways. WebM with an alpha channel gives you a truly transparent video that needs no blend mode, and works in Chrome, Edge and other Chromium browsers. Transparent frames (PNG) exports a .zip of transparent images that imports as an image sequence into any editor and works in every browser — it just carries no audio track.

Which waveform styles are available?

Eight: bars, mirror, radial, scope, area, dots, blob and circle. Each one takes the same color, reaction and resolution controls, and the preview updates live so you can click through them against your own track.
