How can I convert MP3 file to a Base64 encoded string?

Question

I want to convert MP3 file which is less than 10 MB to a Base64 encoded string. I can only find image converters.

Can anybody suggest me an online tool which will do this?

Look for "binary to base64" or "file to base64". For example, this tool.

Then precede raw base64 result with data:audio/mpeg;base64,

Use Notepad++, first select the entire file (CTRL+A)) and then use the Base64 Encode option under the plugins menu:

Main Menu - Plugins - MIME Tools - Base64 Encode
