The WAV → MP3 workflow

FreeTextoSpeech outputs lossless 24 kHz WAV because it is the cleanest format for further processing. If your end workflow needs MP3 — podcast upload, email attachment, phone playback — converting is a one-click operation and takes less than a second with free tools.

Converting on macOS

  1. Download the WAV from FreeTextoSpeech.
  2. Drag it into Apple Music.
  3. Right-click the track and select Create MP3 Version.
  4. The MP3 appears alongside the WAV in your library.

Converting on Windows

  1. Install Audacity (free) and the LAME MP3 encoder.
  2. Open your WAV in Audacity.
  3. File → Export → Export as MP3.
  4. Choose 128 kbps or 192 kbps. Done.

Online converters

If you do not want to install anything, cloudconvert.com and online-audio-converter.com both handle WAV→MP3 for free with no watermark. Upload the WAV, choose MP3, download.

Should you ever keep the WAV?

Keep the WAV if you plan to edit the audio further (EQ, compression, stitching clips), or if you are publishing to a lossless distribution platform. Convert to MP3 only for the final delivered file.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Why does FreeTextoSpeech download as WAV instead of MP3?
WAV is lossless and preserves the full quality of the Kokoro model output. Converting to MP3 introduces compression artefacts. We let you convert to MP3 yourself if your workflow requires it — the conversion is instant and free with any modern tool.
02 How do I convert the WAV to MP3?
On Mac, drag the file into iTunes / Apple Music and use "Create MP3 Version." On Windows use Audacity: File → Export → Export as MP3 (requires the free LAME encoder). Online converters like cloudconvert.com or CloudApp work too.
03 Will MP3 compression noticeably reduce voice quality?
At 128 kbps or higher, MP3 is effectively transparent for speech. Most podcast hosts and video editors accept 128 kbps MP3 without audible loss.
04 Can I batch-convert multiple WAV files to MP3?
Yes. Audacity supports batch processing via Chains (macOS/Linux: File → Macros). fre:ac is another free batch converter for Windows.
05 Is MP3 necessary for podcast distribution?
Most podcast hosts accept MP3 or M4A. Upload WAV to your host and it will handle conversion, or convert locally first for tighter control.
