About Us

Vocal Archive is a free, web-based collection of audio utilities built for musicians, singers, and creators. Whether you are tuning a guitar before a gig, practising scales with a metronome, analysing the acoustics of your recording space, or just need to pull audio out of a video file — we have a tool for it. And it works directly in your browser, no downloads or sign-ups required.

Why We Built This

We were tired of searching for a simple online tuner and being met with pages full of ads, hidden paywalls, or prompts to download an app just to use a basic feature. Most tools that are marketed as free are not really free — they either want your email address, push you toward a paid subscription after two uses, or quietly log your data in the background.

We thought that was unnecessary. Music is universal, and the tools that help people make it should be accessible to everyone without friction. So we built Vocal Archive with one guiding rule: if you need a tool, you should be able to open it and use it immediately — no account, no credit card, no catch.

How It Works

Every tool on Vocal Archive runs locally inside your browser using modern Web Audio APIs. When you use our tuners or the acoustic analyser, your microphone audio is never sent anywhere — it is processed in real time, entirely on your own device. When you convert a media file, we do not keep a copy of it on our servers. Once the job is done, the file stays with you and only you.

This approach also means our tools are fast. Because there is no round-trip to a server, results are instant. The pitch detection responds in real time, the metronome does not drift, and file conversions finish as quickly as your device can handle them.

What We Offer

Our current suite covers a wide range of use cases for musicians at every level. We have precision tuners for guitar, ukulele, flute, and bansuri, a universal chromatic tuner that works for any instrument, a professional acoustic analyser for pitch and scale detection, a chord finder for piano and keyboard players, and a clean, reliable metronome with tap tempo support. We also include a media converter for extracting audio from video files.

We are a small, focused project and we are always working on expanding what is available. Our goal is to keep the experience lean — every tool we add has to genuinely earn its place, and we would rather do a few things very well than offer a bloated catalogue of half-working utilities.

Who This Is For

Vocal Archive is for anyone who works with sound. That includes beginner guitar players who just need to tune up before a lesson, session musicians who need a precise reference tool on the fly, music teachers who want something reliable to use in the classroom without installing software, and producers who need a quick audio extraction without firing up a full DAW. If you work with music in any capacity, you should find something here that is genuinely useful.
