BandConvert cannot transcribe recordings that are too long or too large. The following limits apply:
✅ Audio files must be under 15 MB
✅ YouTube videos must be under 10 minutes
If your file exceeds these limits, here’s how to reduce its size without losing too much quality:
🎼 1 - Convert to MP3 format
If your multi-instrument recording is in WAV or FLAC format, converting it to MP3 will reduce its size.
🔹 Convert your file here:

🎶 2 - Use a shorter version of the song
If you don’t need the full version, try finding a shorter recording that still captures the essence of the piece.
✂ 3 - Trim your audio file
If you want to keep the same version but shorten it, use an audio cutter to select a portion of the piece.
🔹 Trim your audio file here:
🎚 4 - Compress your MP3 file
If your MP3 file still exceeds 15MB, you can compress it to reduce its size. However, excessive compression may degrade the transcription accuracy.
