Uploading video and audio files to WordPress while using Media Uploader is simple. Despite the fact that the press uploader recognizes these files and display appropriate file-type symbols alongside them, WordPress doesn't have a media player that may play these files. Use a 3rd party platform like SoundCloud to embed audio, but the aim of this information is to let you upload audio recordings while using default media uploader and embed them right into a publish or page. In the following paragraphs, we will highlight how you can add MP3 audio recordings in WordPress using oEmbed.

Click Add Media button to upload audio file out of your computer. You are able to upload files in mp3, ogg, and wav formats. After you have submitted the file, copy file location and paste raw URL inside your publish.
The wordpress plugin uses HTML5 audio tag to instantly embed audio file out of your URL. While that way, you will see that the press player for ogg and mp3 files looks different in Opera. Presently, Opera doesn't support oEmbed HTML5 audio for MP3 files therefore the wordpress plugin falls to a expensive player rather than HTML5 if this picks up Opera. Using the expensive fallback, this process works best for most browsers and platforms.
