Morse Code Audio Decoder

Decode a clear Morse tone from an audio file or microphone. Analysis stays on this device.

1. Add Morse audio

WAV, MP3 or a live microphone signal · nothing is uploaded

Drop a Morse recording hereNothing is uploaded · recommended under 25 MB

Tuning (optional)

Auto-detected from the recording

Adaptive noise floor

2. Signal analysis

Auto-detected tone and timing

Add a recording to see the waveform, detected tone, speed and decoded text.

Designed for clean single-tone Morse

Automatic detection estimates the dominant tone, the signal threshold and the dot timing, then converts marks and gaps into dots, dashes and text using standard International Morse. Manual frequency and threshold controls stay available whenever a recording needs help.

Already have dots and dashes instead of audio? Decode them instantly in the translator. Going the other way, the generator creates practice audio you can feed right back into this decoder to test your setup.

Audio decoder FAQ

What audio can the decoder handle?

Clean, single-tone Morse recordings — a practice beep from a speaker, a generated WAV, or a tidy recording of a code-practice session. WAV and MP3 files up to 25 MB are supported, plus live microphone input.

Is my audio uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is read and analyzed entirely inside your browser — nothing is sent to a server, and closing the tab erases everything. The microphone works the same way.

What if detection fails?

Open the Tuning panel and set the tone frequency manually (common practice tones are 400–800 Hz) or adjust the threshold. Recordings with heavy background music, voices or multiple signals are out of scope for v1.

Does it work on noisy radio recordings?

Not reliably. MorseAtlas v1 targets reasonably clean, single-tone audio with roughly standard spacing. Heavily faded or noisy radio traffic needs dedicated radio software with narrow filters.
