What is the Nightcore Maker?

Nightcore Maker turns a normal song into a faster, higher-pitched edit — the sound associated with early-2000s nightcore remixes and still common on YouTube and short-form video. The classic approach is simple: raise playback speed (and pitch with it) to roughly 1.25×–1.4×, sometimes with a light reverb so the result feels polished rather than dry. Sound Booster does that entirely in your browser: load a file, pick Soft / Classic / Hyper or fine-tune the sliders, preview, then download a WAV with the effect baked in.

Because the tool uses resampling, tempo and pitch move together. That is intentional for nightcore: the “chipmunk” lift and shorter runtime are part of the aesthetic. If you need higher pitch without changing length, use Pitch Shifter with preserve tempo. If you want the opposite mood — slower and dreamier — open Slowed + Reverb instead.

Presets cover the usual range: Soft (~1.15×, gentle lift), Classic (~1.3×, the familiar nightcore pace), and Hyper (~1.5×, more aggressive). Reverb stays modest by default so vocals stay clear. Nothing is uploaded; decoding, processing, and export stay on your device.

How it works

Load a track

Drop MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, M4A or OGG, or pick from Your Library. Files stay local.

Choose Soft, Classic or Hyper

Or drag Speed / Pitch and Reverb yourself. New duration updates as you change the rate.

Preview and download

Play the nightcore version, compare with Original, then export a stereo WAV.

Classic nightcore often sits near 1.3×. Soft is useful when you only want a slight energy boost; Hyper shortens the track further for high-energy edits. Keep reverb low if the vocal needs to stay upfront.

Tips for nightcore edits

Start with Classic

1.3× is the familiar social-media nightcore speed — adjust from there.

Light reverb

A little space helps; too much muddies fast lyrics.

A/B with Original

Use Original to check that the lift still feels musical, not only faster.

Export WAV

Lossless output for editors; convert to MP3 later if needed.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make nightcore?

Load a song, click Classic (or Soft / Hyper), preview, then Download. Default Classic is about 1.3×.

Why does pitch go up?

Resampling links speed and pitch — the classic nightcore “tape” effect.

Is this different from Speed Changer?

Same engine idea, tuned for nightcore presets and a light reverb path by default.

Is my file uploaded?
