About Chrome Audio Recorder

Capture audio from any browser tab or your microphone with a single click — and access every recording the moment it's saved. - Dual Recording Modes Switch between Tab Audio (capture sound playing in any tab) and Voice Recorder (microphone). Both modes have dedicated keyboard shortcuts so you never need to open the popup. - Multiple Export Formats Save recordings as MP4 (AAC), MP3, or WEBM. Choose the format that suits your workflow. If MP4 isn't supported by your browser, the extension automatically falls back to WEBM. - Recent Recordings Panel Your last 8 recordings appear directly inside the popup. Play them back or reveal them in your Downloads folder — all without leaving Chrome. -Audio Studio Editor Edit recordings after capture with a built-in multi-track audio editor. Add one or more recordings, trim sections, split clips, adjust volume, speed, pan, fades, EQ, compression, markers, loop ranges, and export the final edit as a new audio file. - Auto-Stop Timer Set a recording limit — No Limit, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or a custom duration. The extension stops automatically when time is up, even if the popup is closed. - Pause & Resume Pause at any point and resume without splitting the file. The timer picks up exactly where you left it. - Smart Filenames Recordings are named automatically using the tab title and date, or switch to a timestamp format, or define your own custom prefix. - Keyboard Shortcuts Start and stop without opening the popup: Tab Audio: Alt + Shift + R Voice Recorder: Alt + Shift + V - Automatic Downloads Files save straight to your Downloads folder the moment you stop recording — no dialogs, no extra steps. - Perfect For: Recording webinars, online meetings, and courses Capturing audio from streaming and video platforms Saving music and podcasts from web players Quick voice notes and personal memos Simple, fast, and unlimited audio recording — built for Chrome. Chrome Audio Recorder includes an integrated Audio Studio Editor for editing recorded audio directly inside the extension. Users can open recent recordings in the editor, add multiple audio files, arrange them on a timeline, trim unwanted parts, split clips, move tracks, adjust volume, change playback speed, pan audio left or right, apply fade in and fade out, use equalizer controls, enable compression, place markers, set loop start and loop end handles, and preview the result before exporting. The editor is designed for quick post-recording cleanup and lightweight audio production. It supports single-track and multi-track editing, making it useful for trimming tab recordings, cleaning up voice recordings, combining multiple clips, reviewing sections with loop playback, and exporting an edited version without needing a separate desktop audio editor.
