About this tool

DSS is the dictation format of Olympus and Philips voice recorders, made for speech; most players cannot open it.

This converter turns DSS files into any common audio format: AAC, AC3, AIF, AIFC, AIFF, AU, CAF, FLAC, M4A, M4B, M4R, MKA, MP3, OGA, OGG, OPUS, VOC, WAV, WEBA, WMA and WV. It can also make a video (MP4, MOV, WebM and more) that shows the cover art while the sound plays. Choose the target for each file, keep full quality or set bitrate and channels, cut out a part, and convert up to 10 files at once in the background.

Files are converted on our server: the upload starts only after you confirm, the original is deleted after conversion and the result is kept for 7 days unless you delete it sooner.
