Media tools: mic and webcam test, record audio and screen, convert audio and video

Microphone, camera, screen and files are read by your browser, and recordings and converted files stay in this tab until you download them.

Test before a call

  • Mic Test: See your microphone level live, then record 5 seconds and play it back. Nothing is uploaded.
  • Webcam Test: See your camera live, check the real resolution and frame rate, and save a snapshot. Nothing is uploaded.

Record

  • Voice Recorder: Record your voice in the browser, pause and resume, play it back and download the file. Nothing is uploaded.
  • Screen Recorder: Record a tab, a window or your whole screen in the browser, with optional sound and microphone. Nothing is uploaded.

Check your device

  • Keyboard Tester: Press keys and watch them light up on a 104-key layout. See key codes and how many keys you can hold at once.
  • Dead Pixel Test: Fill your screen with black, white, red, green, blue and grey to spot dead and stuck pixels. No flashing.
  • Screen Resolution: See your screen size, pixel ratio, viewport and colour depth, with a summary you can copy.
  • CPS Test: Click as fast as you can for 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 seconds and see your clicks per second.
  • Reaction Time Test: Wait for the screen to turn green, then click as fast as you can. Five tries, your average in milliseconds, false starts caught.

Convert and edit audio

  • Video to MP3: Pull the sound out of an MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV video and save it as MP3. Pick the bitrate.
  • Audio Converter: Turn WAV, M4A, OGG, FLAC or MP3 into MP3 or WAV. Pick the bitrate. Files stay on your device.
  • MP3 Cutter: Load a song or recording, drag the handles on the waveform, add a fade and save the part you want as MP3 or WAV.
  • Audio Joiner: Put 2 to 20 audio files in order, add a crossfade if you like, and save one MP3 or WAV.
  • Video to GIF: Pick a start and up to 15 seconds of an MP4, MOV or WebM video, choose frames per second and width, and save an animated GIF.

Music and practice

  • Metronome: Set 20 to 300 BPM, pick a time signature, add subdivisions and tap in a tempo. Every click is timed on the audio clock.
  • Guitar Tuner: Play a string and see its note and how many cents sharp or flat it is. Five tunings, a chromatic mode and reference tones.

About these tools

These tools check the hardware a video call, a game or a recording depends on, record what you need, and convert audio and video, all inside your browser tab. Nothing is uploaded: the microphone, camera and screen are read by your browser, and a recording or converted file stays in this tab's memory until you download it or close the page.

Before a call or an interview, Mic Test shows a live input level and lets you record 5 seconds and play it back, and Webcam Test shows the picture with the resolution and frame rate the camera actually delivers. To record, Voice Recorder saves audio from your microphone and Screen Recorder captures a tab, a window or the whole screen on a computer, with tab or system audio where the browser offers it. The file type is whatever your browser records, usually WebM, and the page names it.

To check a device, Keyboard Tester lights up each key you press and shows how many keys register at once, Dead Pixel Test fills the screen with solid colours so a stuck or dead pixel stands out, Screen Resolution Checker reports the screen and window size and the pixel ratio, and CPS Test counts clicks per second over 1 to 60 seconds. Reaction Time Test gives your average over five tries in milliseconds. Your browser asks for permission before any page uses the microphone, camera or screen, and only when you press Start.

To convert and edit audio, Video to MP3 pulls the sound out of an MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV video, Audio Converter turns WAV, M4A, OGG, FLAC or MP3 into MP3 or WAV, MP3 Cutter saves the part you pick on the waveform with an optional fade, Audio Joiner puts 2 to 20 files in order with an optional crossfade, and Video to GIF saves up to 15 seconds of an MP4, MOV or WebM video as an animated GIF. These use your browser's own decoder, so the formats that open depend on the browser. For practice, Metronome runs from 20 to 300 BPM with tap tempo, and Guitar Tuner listens to a string and shows its note and how many cents sharp or flat it is.

Frequently asked questions

Is my microphone or camera recorded or sent anywhere?

No. Mic Test and Webcam Test show a live signal inside this tab, and the 5-second test clip in Mic Test stays in memory. Nothing is sent to a server. Closing the tab stops the device and discards the clip.

Why does the browser ask for permission?

Browsers never let a page use the microphone, camera or screen without asking, and they ask separately for each of the 3. The request appears only after you press Start. If you pressed Block, allow the device again from the icon at the left of the address bar, then press Start once more. Most browsers remember your choice for 1 site at a time.

What format do recordings use?

Whatever your browser's recorder produces: Chrome, Edge and Firefox usually record WebM, and Safari records MP4. The page shows the real type before you download, for example a 2 minute voice note as a WebM audio file.

Can I record my screen on a phone?

Usually not. Screen capture from a web page needs the browser's screen-sharing feature, which most phone browsers do not offer. Screen Recorder needs just 1 thing from the browser, screen sharing, and says so when it is missing. Mic Test, Webcam Test, Voice Recorder and CPS Test work on phones.

How do I extract the audio of a video as an MP3?

Open Video to MP3, add the MP4, choose a bitrate such as 192 kbps and press Extract audio. A 3-minute video gives about 4.1 MB at 192 kbps. The tool offers 128, 192, 256 and 320 kbps, or variable quality, and nothing is uploaded.

Why does my browser say it cannot decode my audio or video file?

The converters use your browser's own decoder, so they only open formats the browser can play. An OGG or Opus file may fail in Safari, and MKV or AC-3 audio may fail in some browsers. A file without an audio track fails everywhere. Try Chrome, Edge or Firefox, or an MP4 or MOV with AAC audio.
