Change Speed for call recording playback x3?

My question is pretty simple. I listen to all calls at 2x, but am capable of listening much faster. I watch some YouTube videos in 3x and 4x. I have custom scripts for youtube that allow me to go over the default selectable speeds.

My question, Is there a way to increase the playback speed even more than 2x, either by inspecting the element and changing, or some other trick to doing so?
Thanks

The quick and dirty way, assuming you want this for all recordings on a page, is to open up the browser's dev tools (inspect an element or hit F12) and in the Console section paste this and hit enter:
Code: Select all
document.querySelectorAll('audio').forEach(function(audio) {
    audio.playbackRate = 3;
});

You could try 4 but it may actually mute the audio (it doesn't in Chrome, per my testing just now, but the MDN web docs note that Gecko (Firefox browser engine) would. It does accept a decimal point as well, so, 3.5 for example should work.

Amazing. Worked perfectly! Thank you so much!

As an additional option to this solution, I created a bookmark using the following code as the "website". All I have to do is to click this book mark while after clicking play to immediately apply the speed.
Thanks again

javascript:document.querySelectorAll('audio').forEach(function(audio) { audio.playbackRate = 3;});
