What OrchidLines Audiogram Maker is
OrchidLines Audiogram Maker turns podcast or interview audio into a video with artwork and an animated waveform. It runs in a web browser, where audio decoding, waveform drawing, and video recording take place; the product page says files are not uploaded. The instructions list MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, and other common formats. Choose square 1:1, portrait 4:5, story 9:16, or wide 16:9, then add a cover image, title, and subtitle. Three waveform styles are available, with controls for colors and bar count and an option to display a progress bar. The browser exports video in a format it supports, and the bitrate can be adjusted from a default of 3000 kbps. The free plan costs nothing; it requires no account and has no export limit or watermark. The page recommends clips of 30 to 90 seconds and cautions that exports become awkward beyond two or three minutes. Subtitles are not burned into the video, so they can be added afterward in a video editor.
