Audio
Convert OGG to MP3 on your Mac.
OGG files turn up in game soundtracks, open-source apps and web downloads — and Apple Music won’t import them. Drop them on MP3 and they will.
Or with Homebrew: brew install --cask kapyar/tap/clementine
Your files never leave your Mac unless you share them.
How it works
Drag your OGG files
From Finder, the Desktop, Mail or a browser — anywhere you can drag a file.
Tap ⇧, drop on MP3
Hold Shift (⇧) while dragging and a wheel appears around your pointer. Drop on MP3.
Done
You get MP3s for Apple Music and iPhone. The original is never changed.
Why Clementine
Converted with Clementine’s built-in audio engine on your Mac — no upload, no queue, no file-size limit.
- Imports into Apple Music like any MP3
- Tags such as title and artist are carried over
- Batch-convert whole soundtrack folders
- Runs on your Mac — nothing is uploaded
MP3 Saves a copy as MP3 next to the original. The original stays as it is.
This is the wheel you’ll see. Point at other petals to see what else the file can do.
Questions
What’s inside an OGG file?
Usually Vorbis audio, sometimes Opus or FLAC. Clementine reads all of them.
Can I go the other way?
Yes — OGG and Opus are on the same audio wheel if a game mod or web app needs them.
