Free online OGA to VOX converter

Source format: OGA

OGA is an audio file format that usually contains sound encoded in the Ogg container, most often with Vorbis or sometimes Opus audio. It is commonly used on Linux systems, in open-source workflows, and by applications that prefer royalty-free audio formats. Typical uses include music clips, voice recordings, game audio, and web audio assets.

Target format: VOX

VOX is a less common audio format associated with Dialogic/OKI ADPCM or similar telephony-oriented audio encoding. It is often used for voice prompts, IVR systems, legacy telephony software, and other applications where small file size and speech-focused audio are more important than high fidelity. Its main advantage is compact storage, but it is generally limited in quality and compatibility compared with modern audio formats.

How to perform the conversion

The most reliable way to convert OGA to VOX is with desktop audio tools that can read Ogg audio and export to VOX-compatible encoding. A practical option is Audacity for opening the source file and then exporting through a compatible codec or using a command-line tool such as FFmpeg if your build supports VOX output.

1. Open the .oga file in your audio editor or converter.
2. Check whether the audio is mono and at a speech-friendly sample rate, since VOX is typically used for voice audio.
3. If needed, convert the track to mono and trim unnecessary silence.
4. Export or save the file as .vox if the software offers that format directly.
5. If using FFmpeg, try a command such as ffmpeg -i input.oga output.vox; if your build does not support VOX directly, you may need a tool that specifically supports the target codec.
6. Verify the result by opening the .vox file in the intended playback or telephony application.

Notes on quality and compatibility

OGA to VOX is usually a lossy-to-lossy conversion, so some audio quality loss is expected. This matters less for speech than for music, but it can still reduce clarity. VOX is often limited to mono and lower sample rates, so stereo OGA files will usually need to be downmixed. Compatibility can also be an issue: many modern players handle OGA easily, while VOX support is much more specialized and may require legacy or telephony software. For best results, start from the cleanest source possible and keep the audio simple, short, and voice-focused.
