Loudness you can trust
Peak, RMS and an integrated loudness estimate with K-weighting and gating, so you know if a clip will sound too quiet or too hot next to others.
Drop in a recording to measure its loudness, read its spectrum, clean it up and export a WAV. Your audio never leaves this device.
A sample clip is loaded so you can try everything now. Replace it with your own file at any time.
Removes quiet lead-in and tail below the threshold.
Mutes hiss between phrases. Opens fast, closes gently.
Peak never goes above −1 dBFS, so loudness targets stay clean.
To keep it, open the player's menu (⋮) and choose Download, or right-click the player and choose Save audio as.
Save the chain settings above and bring them back later. Presets are kept in this browser.
Run the current chain on several files at once. Each result gets its own player below.
Batch is part of Pro and Studio. See plans.Every tool here works on the file you load. Nothing is uploaded.
Peak, RMS and an integrated loudness estimate with K-weighting and gating, so you know if a clip will sound too quiet or too hot next to others.
A short-time Fourier transform of every channel, drawn on a log frequency scale. Hum, hiss and harsh peaks show up as lines and bands.
Trim silence, gate the noise floor, shape tone with three EQ bands and set a level, then compare original and processed side by side.
The processed audio is written as an uncompressed WAV at the original sample rate and channel count, ready for an editor or a podcast host.
Echo decodes your file with the browser's own audio engine, then does the maths in this page. The file is read from your device into memory and stays there. Close the tab and it is gone.
The signal path, in order:
The loudness figure follows the published ITU-R BS.1770 method, but it is a browser measurement, not a certified meter. Use it as a close guide.
Trials need no card. Billing opens with the full launch. Prices in US dollars.
Echo is made by Echo Audio Lab, a small studio that builds tools that run on your own device.
Founded Echo to make careful audio measurement and clean-up available to anyone with a browser, without uploading a single file.

Studio tools that stay simple. Meters, controls and screens that make sense at a glance.
How to use Echo, what each number means and what each step does.
The steps run in this order. Each one can be switched off.
Cuts quiet audio from the start and end. Anything below the threshold counts as silence. A short margin is kept so words are not clipped.
Mutes the gaps between sounds when the level falls below the threshold. Release sets how gently it closes.
A low shelf at 120 Hz for warmth or rumble, a bell at 1.5 kHz for presence, and a high shelf at 8 kHz for brightness or hiss.
Sets the final level, either by peak or by loudness. Peaks are never allowed above −1 dBFS.
Export writes the processed audio as an uncompressed WAV at the original sample rate. Free exports 16-bit; Pro and Studio can choose 24-bit. The file appears in a player on the page. Use the player's menu to save it.
On Pro and Studio, Batch runs the current chain on several files and gives each result its own player. Free handles files up to 5 minutes and Pro up to 60 minutes; longer files are shortened to the limit, and Echo tells you when it does.
Shortcuts are ignored while you are typing in a field.
Echo reads anything your browser can decode. That is WAV, MP3, OGG and M4A/AAC in all current browsers, and FLAC in most. It writes WAV only.
What changed in each release.
Short version: your audio never leaves your device.
Files you open in Echo are read into this browser tab and processed there. They are not uploaded to any server. Closing the tab clears them.
During early access, your account (name, email and plan) and your presets are stored in this browser's local storage. They are not sent anywhere. Clearing your browser data removes them.
Echo has no analytics, advertising or tracking scripts. The page loads its fonts from Google Fonts, which receives a normal web request for them.

The plain rules for using Echo during early access.
You can use Echo for personal and commercial work. You keep all rights to the audio you process.
Free is free. Pro and Studio trials last 14 days and need no card. Billing opens with the full launch; you will be asked before anything is charged.
Loudness and other figures are careful browser measurements, not certified readings. Check critical deliveries with a dedicated meter.
Echo is provided as it is. Keep a copy of your original files.
