MAUD to M4B Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
MAUD is the Amiga capture format from the Sun Raster-era Toccata sound card — compressed PCM samples from classic Amiga recordings. Converting M4B to MP3 frees audiobooks to play on car stereos, dumb players and anything without chapter support.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the M4B format
M4B is M4A wearing an audiobook badge: the same AAC audio in an MP4 container, plus chapter markers that Apple Books and Audible apps render as a scrubbing timeline. Buy an audiobook outside Audible and it likely arrives as M4B.
The format is deliberately chained to Apple's book ecosystem. Converting M4B to MP3 sets the book free: car stereos, gym players, old iPods and every app without chapter support will play it — though the chapter marks themselves are flattened away.
+ Strengths
- ✓Chapter markers survive on Apple platforms
- ✓Efficient AAC audio
! Limitations
- −Chapters vanish in MP3 conversion
- −Non-Apple support is patchy

Frequently asked questions
Is this MAUD to M4B converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Is there a file size limit for MAUD to M4B?
The only limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded. Files up to a few hundred megabytes work fine on a modern desktop browser; very large files simply take a little longer.
Will converting MAUD to M4B reduce audio quality?
If M4B is lossless, the output contains everything the MAUD file contains — no further loss is added. If M4B is lossy, one recompression pass is unavoidable; the quality slider controls how much. Loss that already happened in the source file can never be undone by converting.
Are tags like title and artist preserved?
Tag handling varies between target formats and this conversion focuses on the audio itself. For archival copies where tags matter, keep the original file; the converted copy is for playback and sharing.
