amr-decode

Decode AMR-NB and AMR-WB audio to PCM float samples. opencore-amr compiled to WASM — works in Node.js and browsers.

Part of audio-decode.

Install

npm i @audio/amr-decode

Usage

import decode from '@audio/amr-decode'

// AMR-NB or AMR-WB — auto-detected from file header
let { channelData, sampleRate } = await decode(amrBuffer)
// AMR-NB: 8000 Hz mono
// AMR-WB: 16000 Hz mono

Streaming

import { decoder } from '@audio/amr-decode'

let dec = await decoder()
let result = dec.decode(chunk)
dec.free()

API

decode(src): Promise<AudioData>

Whole-file decode. Accepts Uint8Array or ArrayBuffer. Auto-detects AMR-NB (#!AMR\n) vs AMR-WB (#!AMR-WB\n).

decoder(): Promise<AMRDecoder>

Creates a decoder instance.

• dec.decode(data) — decode chunk, returns { channelData, sampleRate }
• dec.flush() — flush (returns empty)
• dec.free() — release WASM memory

Formats

• AMR-NB — 8 kHz, modes 0–7 (4.75–12.2 kbps)
• AMR-WB — 16 kHz, modes 0–8 (6.6–23.85 kbps)

Building WASM

The WASM binary is prebuilt in src/amr.wasm.cjs. To rebuild:

npm run build

This auto-fetches opencore-amr 0.1.6 source and compiles with Emscripten.
