Increase Video Volume makes a quiet recording louder — 150%, 200%, 300%, 400% or 600% (+3.5 to +15.6 dB) — or turns it down to 50%. If you are not sure how much to boost, choose Normalize: it measures the clip and brings it to a standard loudness (EBU R128, −16 LUFS) with a true-peak limit so nothing clips, which is the safest choice for speech, lectures and phone recordings.

Only the audio track is processed; the video stream is copied unchanged, so the picture keeps its original quality and the job takes seconds. It all runs locally with ffmpeg.wasm — no upload, no account, no watermark.

Frequently asked questions

Is it free and private?
Yes, free with no signup or watermark. No. Everything runs in your browser with ffmpeg.wasm (WebAssembly); the file never leaves your device, nothing is uploaded or stored.
How much can I increase the volume?
Up to 600% (+15.6 dB). Above roughly 300% loud passages may start to clip and sound harsh; if the recording has both quiet and loud parts, use Normalize instead.
What does Normalize do?
It analyses the whole track and adjusts it to −16 LUFS integrated loudness with a −1.5 dBTP true-peak ceiling (EBU R128 via ffmpeg's loudnorm). Quiet recordings get louder, over-loud ones get tamed, and nothing clips.
Will the video quality change?
No. The video is stream-copied; only the audio is re-encoded to AAC 192 kbps.
Can I make the video quieter?
Yes, choose 50% (−6 dB).
Why does my boosted audio sound distorted?
The original peaks were already near maximum, so multiplying pushes them past 0 dB. Pick a smaller boost or use Normalize, which limits peaks automatically.
Which formats are supported?
MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI, M4V, FLV, WMV, MPG and 3GP can be loaded; the result is saved as MP4.
