By using this site you confirm you have the right to download the file you request.
How it works

- 2
Paste it and press Start
Audio rows only — there is no video on Mixcloud.

Pick a bitrate
A twenty-minute mix at 320 kbps measured 45.5 MB.
Length changes the arithmetic
Mixcloud hosts mixes and radio shows, so an hour is ordinary rather than exceptional. The mix we tested ran 19 minutes 53 seconds and came out as a 45.5 MB MP3 at 320 kbps — which is exactly what the arithmetic predicts, and worth knowing before you start an hour-long one on mobile data.
WAV is not offered at all here. An hour uncompressed is around 600 MB and nothing on Mixcloud is short enough for that to make sense.
What it will not read
Shows the uploader geo-restricted, and anything taken down over a rights claim. Mixcloud pays royalties per play and that machinery has teeth.
Frequently asked questions
Why is there no WAV option?
Length. Uncompressed audio is only worth its size on something brief, and nothing here is.
Why is there no video?
Mixcloud is sound only. A video row would be lying about the source.
