About the SPX format
SPX is Speex speech audio in an Ogg container — the open voice codec of the 2000s VoIP wave, tuned for telephone-band speech at absurdly low bitrates. Asterisk PBX call recordings and old conferencing archives are where you meet it.
Speex was formally retired in favor of Opus, and players have followed. Converting SPX to MP3 (or Opus for the adventurous) rescues call archives before they become unplayable.

About the VOC format
VOC is the Creative Sound Blaster format — if a DOS game made a sound between 1989 and 1994, it was probably a VOC: 8-bit samples at exotic sample rates, with loop points, silence blocks and hardware-specific appendices that made each card sing differently.
ffmpeg decodes the standard sample blocks and converts VOC to WAV or MP3 — the cheapest time machine for retro-game audio.

- ✓Unique features: loops, silence, transfer blocks

Frequently asked questions
Is this SPX to VOC 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 SPX to VOC?
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.
Can I convert a whole folder of SPX files?
You can select many files at once and they are processed in a single batch. Output files land in one ZIP download when there is more than one result.
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.
