Turn any recording into a square video with a sound wave that moves as it plays. Good for podcast audiograms, voice notes and quotes in the feed, where a still image would be scrolled past.

An audio waveform generator is a tool that draws the sound of a recording as a moving line and saves it as a video. Here you upload an MP3, WAV, M4A or OGG up to 10 minutes. The tool draws a waveform band across the middle of the frame that moves with the audio at 30 frames per second, over your image or a dark background. This page starts on a 1:1 square, 1080×1080, the shape that fits feeds on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Sign in and upload the recording: MP3, WAV, M4A or OGG, up to 50 MB and 10 minutes. Add an image if you want one behind the waveform.
The audio waveform generator starts on 1:1 square with Animated waveform. Keep it for feed posts, or pick another format.
Press Make video. The MP4 lasts exactly as long as your audio and is saved in My Videos.
The line is drawn from the audio itself. Speech shows as quick ripples with gaps between sentences; music shows its beat. Viewers can see straight away that there's sound to turn on.
A 1:1 video takes the same space in a feed as a photo post, and it isn't cropped in grid previews. Change the format to 9:16, 16:9 or 4:5 in the form if you need a different shape.
The wave band is a quarter of the frame's height, centered top to bottom and running edge to edge, drawn in a pink-to-purple gradient. There's nothing to position or adjust.
Add a JPG, PNG or WEBP, such as a show logo, a headshot or a quote card. It's shown sharp in the middle with a blurred copy filling the frame, and the wave runs across it.
Skip the image and the waveform plays on a near-black background, a simple look for voice notes and recordings that don't need branding.
Most platforms won't take a plain audio file. Turn it into a video without building one yourself.
