Audio Encoding
The way that digital files are encoded plays a big part in the quality of the audio, and the ability to get the crisp details of the track across, while trying to keep file sizes down. In our audio encoding services, Transloadit offers a variety of features to maximize file compatibility across platforms, as well as enrich audio with effects, loops, overlays, and more, to get the most out of your (user generated) audio content.
Features
At Transloadit we call our features Robots because you can put them to work together to create encoding pipelines unique to your use case.
-
/audio/artwork
extracts the embedded cover artwork from audio files and allows you to pipe it into other Steps, for example into /image/resize Steps. It can also insert images into audio files as cover artwork -
/audio/concat
concatenates several audio files together -
/audio/encode
converts audio files into all kinds of formats for you. We provide encoding presets for the most common formats -
/audio/loop
loops one audio file as often as is required to match a given duration -
/audio/merge
overlays several audio files on top of each other -
/audio/waveform
generates waveform images for your audio files and allows you to change their colors and dimensions
