    Some video editors, some upload forms and some older playback devices strictly require a stereo audio track and either reject a single-channel mono signal or behave unexpectedly with it. This tool solves exactly that problem by copying the one mono channel identically onto left and right - technically the counterpart to the existing "Stereo to mono" tool.

    Important to understand: the result is not a "real" stereo experience with spatial width - left and right stay sample-for-sample exactly identical. Anyone looking for an artificial stereo-widening effect with delay or phase differences needs a different, much more elaborate tool. This tool solves only the compatibility problem "software expects two channels".

    Only genuinely mono files are accepted; an already multi-channel source gets a clear message instead of a guessed result. Processing runs entirely locally in the browser.

    In 3 steps

    1. Drop the mono file.
    2. Choose the output format (WAV or M4A).
    3. Convert and download the stereo file.

    Limitations: True mono files only (exactly 1 channel) - an already multi-channel source is refused with a clear message. Left and right are then identical (no artificial spatial effect). Honest per-device length cap (desktop about 20 minutes, tablet 15, phone 10). Compressed inputs need the browser WebCodecs decoder.

    FAQ

    Are files uploaded?

    No, everything stays local in the browser.

    Does the result sound more spatial?

    No. Left and right are identical - this is about compatibility, not a spatial effect.

    Why genuine mono only?

    With already multi-channel material it would be unclear what to duplicate - an honest refusal beats a guessed result.

    Is there a reverse direction too?

    Yes, the sibling tool "Stereo to mono" downmixes two channels to one.
