How It Works
Processing location depends on the selected tool and mode. Browser-based tools process files locally; advanced image processing may send the selected file to the ZeroMeta processing endpoint. Files are not intended to be stored permanently.
Select Audio Recordings
Upload voice memos, podcast tracks, music stems, or sound recordings.
Audio Tag Purge
ZeroMeta discards ID3 frames and comment chunks while retaining the bitexact audio stream.
Save Cleaned Audio
Download pristine, anonymized audio files without re-encoding quality loss.
Supported File Formats & Capabilities
ZeroMeta validates authentic file binary headers and signatures prior to processing.
| Format | Extension | Inspection / Stripping Scope | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP3 Audio | .mp3 | ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4 headers, APE tags | Bitexact audio stream preservation. |
| WAV Audio | .wav | RIFF INFO chunks, BEXT broadcast wav metadata | Leaves uncompressed PCM audio bytes 100% intact. |
| FLAC / M4A / OGG | .flac, .m4a, .ogg | Vorbis Comments, iTunes metadata atoms | Preserves lossless acoustic dynamics. |
Privacy Considerations
- Audio processing runs client-side.
- Voice recordings, personal interviews, and music stems are never uploaded.
Technical Boundaries
- •Only digital container tags are removed; acoustic watermarks or spoken audio words remain within the soundtrack.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does cleaning audio reduce sample rate or bitrate?
No. Stream copy mode directly transfers the encoded or uncompressed audio packets without re-encoding.
