What the audio is doing

A dash lasts three times a dot. Letters are separated by three units of silence. Words by seven. Speed is in words per minute: at 20 WPM one unit is 60 milliseconds. Open Advanced tools under the translator to change WPM, tone (Hz), and volume. The same settings are used when you download a WAV.

Screen flash is optional. Turn it on if you want a visual channel in step with each beep — useful in a quiet room, or if you are checking timing without wearing headphones. Audio never leaves the device. There is no server-side renderer.

If you are learning, start slower than you think. Twelve to fifteen WPM keeps letter shapes intact. Then read how to read Morse code and stop counting dots. For a known phrase, I love you and SOS are easy checks that the speaker is working.

Morse audio FAQ

How do I hear Morse code from this translator?

Type a message, then press Play. The site uses the Web Audio API to beep the current Morse at the speed, tone, and volume you set. Nothing is uploaded.

Can I download Morse code audio?

Yes. Download WAV saves a sound file of the current message using the same timing as playback.

What speed should I use to learn?

Start around 12–15 words per minute so letters still have a recognizable shape. 20 WPM is a common practice speed. This translator goes from 5 to 50 WPM using the PARIS standard.
