How to reverse an audio file

  1. Upload an AAC, AIFF, FLAC, M4A, MP3, OGG, or WAV file.
  2. Click Reverse — nothing to configure.
  3. Download the reversed file, same format as your upload.

Why reverse audio?

Reversed audio is a classic production trick — reversed cymbal swells and vocal chops are staples in melodic house, hip-hop, and cinematic sound design. It's also handy for spotting hidden or backmasked content in a recording, or just for creative sound experiments.

The output keeps your original file format, so a WAV stays a WAV and an MP3 stays an MP3 — no extra conversion step needed.

Reverse audio vs. reverse playback

Reversing an audio file here creates an actual new file with every sample rearranged in the opposite order — something you can download, share, edit, or drop straight into a DAW.

Reverse playback is a different thing entirely: some media players can temporarily play a file backwards while you're listening, without ever creating a new file — close the player and there's nothing saved. This tool does the former, permanently generating a reversed copy you can keep and use anywhere, not just a playback trick in one app.

Does reversing change quality?

No. Reversing only changes the playback order of the audio — every sample stays exactly as it was, just read back to front. Since the output keeps your original format, there's no extra quality loss beyond whatever that format's normal characteristics already are. A reversed WAV is exactly as lossless as the WAV you uploaded.

Common uses

Music production: reversed cymbal swells, risers, and vocal chops — staples in melodic house, hip-hop, and cinematic sound design.

Sound design & SFX:flip a recorded sound effect for a distinctive texture that a forward sound simply doesn't have. Need to change the speed of the reversed audio too? Run it through the Audio Speed Changer afterward.

Backmasking curiosity: check a track or recording for hidden or unintentional content by listening to it in reverse.

Creative experiments: reverse a voice memo, a field recording, or anything else just to hear what it sounds like flipped.

Only need part of a track reversed, not the whole file? Trim the section you want with the Audio Trimmer first, then reverse the trimmed clip.
