## How to convert FLAC to MP2

1. **Add your FLAC files.** Drag and drop FLAC files onto the converter, paste them, or click to browse. You can add several at once.
2. **Choose MP2.** MP2 is already selected. Open Options if you want to change quality, size or metadata.
3. **Convert.** Click Convert. Your files are converted right in your browser in seconds.
4. **Download your MP2.** Download each MP2 file, or everything at once as a ZIP.

## Good to know

- MP2 uses lossy compression, so files get much smaller. The default quality is visually lossless for most content; lower it under Options for even smaller files.
- We encode at a high-quality bitrate by default. Pick a specific bitrate or sample rate under Options.
- This conversion runs on FFmpeg (WASM), running locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded and it works even on slow connections.
