Browser DAW · zero upload

Podcast Studio A studio. In a browser tab.

Most "podcast studio" sites are recorders that send your audio to a cloud transcoder and bill you per episode. Soundbend is a real DAW running in WebAudio — multi-track timeline, per-track FX chains, mixer with aux sends, EQ, compressor, gate, reverb, delay, chorus, saturation, widener, and an ITU-R BS.1770-5 true-peak limiter. AudioWorklet-based. WAM2 plugin host. Files never upload.

How it works

  1. Open morph.cool/soundbend in any modern browser. No install.
  2. Add tracks for host, guest, music, sfx. Arm and record, or drop existing audio.
  3. Edit, cut, fade, comp the takes on the multi-track timeline.
  4. Mix with the per-track FX chain. Master with the true-peak limiter.
  5. Bounce to WAV or MP3. The file lands on your machine — never on a server.

Why people leave the cloud-recorder podcast tools

Most podcast studios are upload-and-process pipelines that sell you a monthly subscription per show, watermark transcripts, and host audio that you can't easily migrate. Soundbend is a real DAW that lives in your browser tab.

Frequently asked

Is this a real DAW or a recorder?

A real DAW. Multi-track timeline, per-track FX chains, mixer with aux sends, and an effects suite covering EQ, compressor, gate, reverb, delay, chorus, saturation, widener, and a true-peak limiter. AudioWorklet-based, not script processor.

Can I record straight into it?

Yes. Arm a track, pick your input device, and hit record. Multi-channel input on supported interfaces. Latency depends on the browser and device — typical AudioWorklet round trip is 10-30ms.

Where do my recordings go?

IndexedDB on your device. Sessions persist across reloads. Export bounces to WAV or MP3 — local file save, never a cloud step.

Mastering chain?

Yes. ITU-R BS.1770-5 true-peak limiter, multi-band EQ, broadcast loudness reference (-16 LUFS for podcasts). Hit the loudness target without external tools.

VST plugins?

Web Audio Modules v2 (WAM2) plugins are supported via the Soundbend host. Native VST3 isn't possible in a browser, but WAM2 covers a fast-growing ecosystem of cross-platform plugins.

Mobile?

Recording on iOS/Android works for one-track captures. Multi-track mixing benefits from a desktop browser.
