About VOC
Creative Labs made the Creative Voice File for its Sound Blaster cards, which brought digital sound to many DOS PCs from 1989. Games and demos of the time kept their effects and speech in VOC files.
A VOC holds 8-bit sound, often at 11 or 22 kHz in mono, raw or squeezed with Creative's ADPCM. Later ones hold 16-bit sound.
No browser plays VOC by itself. Filepeek decodes it with FFmpeg inside your browser, and Export saves a WAV or MP3 that any app opens.

Questions
How do I play a VOC file?
Drop it on this page or press Peek a VOC. It plays right in your browser, with no emulator or app to install.
Where do VOC files come from?
Mostly from DOS games, demos and Sound Blaster tools of the late 1980s and the 1990s, which kept their sound effects and speech as VOC files.
Can I convert VOC to WAV?
Yes. Choose Export, then Save as WAV, which any app opens, or Save as MP3. Drag the handles on the waveform strip to keep only a part.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The VOC plays inside your browser and never leaves your device.
