How to convert MP3 to OGG

  1. Add your MP3 files

    Drag and drop MP3 files into the box or tap to choose them. The converter engine (about 31 MB) downloads once, the first time you convert.

  2. Pick a bitrate

    192 kbps suits music and 128 kbps or less suits speech. Sample rate and mono/stereo are under Advanced.

  3. Convert and download

    Click Convert, then download each OGG file or all of them as one ZIP.

Why convert MP3 to OGG?

Game engines such as Godot and many open-source apps prefer OGG Vorbis audio.

What happens when you convert MP3 to OGG?

The MP3 is re-encoded to Vorbis at 192 kbps by default, giving a similar file size.

How does Fylo convert MP3 to OGG?

Fylo decodes the MP3 audio in the MP3 with ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly and encodes it with the Vorbis encoder (libvorbis) at 192 kbps in an Ogg container. Both formats are lossy, so each conversion discards a little detail — start from the highest-bitrate MP3 you have. A 3-minute song is ≈ 4.3 MB at 192 kbps as MP3 and ≈ 3.6 MB at 160 kbps as OGG. The original sample rate and channel layout are kept unless you change them under Advanced.

What's the difference between MP3 and OGG?

MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III) was developed largely at Germany's Fraunhofer Institute and standardised in 1993. It removes sounds the ear is unlikely to notice — a technique called perceptual coding — so a 3-minute song takes about 4 MB at 192 kbps instead of about 32 MB as WAV. The last MP3 patents expired in 2017, so it's now free to use.

Ogg is an open container from the Xiph.Org Foundation; Vorbis, the audio codec most .ogg files use, reached version 1.0 in 2002. Vorbis was created as a free, unpatented alternative to MP3 and sounds better at the same bitrate.

Does Unity or Godot use OGG?

Godot imports OGG natively, and Unity accepts it too.

Will quality drop?

Slightly, as with any lossy-to-lossy conversion; 192 kbps keeps it inaudible for most listeners.

Is my MP3 file uploaded to a server?

No. Fylo runs ffmpeg, the same engine used by professional video tools, compiled to WebAssembly inside your browser. Your MP3 file is read directly from your device and never sent anywhere.
