About FLAC to MP3 Converter — Free Online Tool

FLAC to MP3 Converter re-encodes lossless FLAC audio as MP3, starting from 256 kbps by default.

The bitrate control on this page begins at 128 kbps instead of the 32 kbps the other audio tools allow, and sits at 256 by default, on the reasoning that nobody converts a lossless album in order to make it sound like a phone call. FLAC is decoded to PCM and that PCM goes to libmp3lame, so what comes out is a lossy approximation of a file that was bit-perfect — the FLAC is the copy worth archiving. Embedded cover art is not carried over: the command selects the audio stream alone, so an attached picture is left behind and has to be re-added with the ID3 tag editor on this site.

None of this leaves the machine. The FLAC is read from your own disk by the in-page engine and the MP3 is written back to it, with no account and no copy on any server.

Taking a lossless collection onto a phone that has no room for it, playing an album on a device with no FLAC support, sending a single track to someone whose player only handles MP3, and making a listening copy while the originals stay archived.
