Step 1 – Add MP3 files

In step 1, you can add MP3 files, edit the title, album and artist. You can also specify a cover image for the audio file.

On Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer 10, iPhone, iPad and Android, the audio player will use HTML5 to directly play MP3 files.

On Firefox and Opera, MP3 format is not supported by its HTML5 player, OGG format is supported instead. If an optional OGG file is provided, the audio player will use HTML5 to play the audio, otherwise, it will use Flash to play MP3 files on these two browsers.

On legacy web browsers, for example, Internet Explorer 7, 8, 9, where HTML5 is not supported or not supported very well, the audio player will use Flash to play MP3.
