LRC Maker — synced lyrics, made in your browser
Paste lyrics, play your song, tap to timestamp each line, and export a ready-to-use .lrc file. Free, no account — your audio and lyrics never leave your device.
1 · Paste your lyrics
2 · Load the song
Everything runs locally in your browser — your audio file and lyrics are never uploaded. Tip: to fix a line, click its timestamp to select it, seek the player, then press Stamp again.
What is an LRC file?
An .lrc file is the standard format for synced lyrics: a plain-text file where every line starts with a timestamp, like [01:23.45]And the line of lyrics. Put it next to the audio file with the same name (song.flac + song.lrc) and any player that supports LRC will scroll the lyrics in time with the music.
Tips for accurate timing
- Stamp on the first sung syllable of each line, not the breath before it.
- Made a mistake? Click a line's timestamp to select it, seek the player back, and stamp again — or nudge it with the ±0.2 s buttons.
- Slow songs forgive; fast verses don't. For dense sections, pause after each line and use the audio scrubber.
LRC maker FAQ
Format, privacy and editing questions, answered.
What is an LRC file?
An .lrc file is a plain-text lyrics format where each line carries a timestamp, e.g. [01:23.45]Hello world. Music players that support LRC — including Trove Player — display each line in sync as the song plays.
How do I make an LRC file?
Paste the lyrics into this LRC maker, load the song from your device, press play, and hit Stamp (or Enter) as each line begins. When every line is stamped, download the .lrc file and keep it next to the audio file with the same name.
Is my song uploaded anywhere?
No. The audio file is opened locally by your browser and never leaves your device — there is no server behind this tool. That also means it works offline once the page is loaded.
Can I edit an existing LRC file?
Yes. Paste the contents of an existing .lrc file — timestamps and [ti:]/[ar:]/[al:] metadata tags are recognized, and you can re-stamp lines, nudge them by ±0.2 s, and export the corrected file.
How do I get word-by-word lyrics instead of line-by-line?
Line-level LRC is what this tool produces and what most players expect. Word-by-word (enhanced) lyrics need per-word timing support in the player — Trove Player for Mac and iPhone renders word-by-word lyrics when the source provides them.
Now play it back — word by word
Trove Player for Mac and iPhone renders your LRC files as smooth synced lyrics — word-by-word when available — right next to your FLAC and ALAC library. Free, with a one-time Pro purchase.
