Hi, No I do not need to merge files, each file should keep its original data and filenames but with the MP3 extension.
I tried a few external encoders but they create a screechy artefact after the OPUS becomes MP3. I guess I’m just going to have to manually record each file and save using same file names. Can be done but takes ages to complete.

Hi, you can use goldwave for this task If you are thinking of placing all the voice notes under 1 file and converting them to mp3, merge all the files using the batch converter feature. to do this, do the following. re-name all the opus files with numerical values like, 1, 2, 3. and click on merge files, select all, open, save, convert to mp3. note: you may lose the quality of the voice by converting them into mp3 file format.

The moment you are converting the file format, it immediate looses forensic value and would turn infructuous. I now assume, my advise bore no fruit and you choose to see the Nelson' way.

The files are in OPUS format and it is taking very long to manually record each and then save them to MP3. The case has around 70 files which need to be converted while keeping the Whatsapp date and time stamps intact in the filenames. Anyone can suggest how to do this in a single batch to make life easier? Thanks. Yamuna Jivana dasa -- Disclaimer: 1.
