WAV converter

WAV stores audio without compression and is suitable for recording and editing, but takes a lot of space. For listening it is converted to MP3 or M4A, and MP3 is converted to WAV for audio editing.

When WAV is replaced

WAV is convenient for recording and editing but heavy for sharing and storage. MP3 and M4A reduce the size and open on phones and players.

How the conversion works

The file goes into an isolated server queue and is processed with ffmpeg. Progress is shown on the page, and the result is deleted automatically.

Format questions

Is quality lost when converting to MP3?

MP3 uses lossy compression, but at high quality the difference is usually invisible for listening. Keep the WAV for archiving.

Can I get WAV back from MP3?

Yes. MP3 to WAV preserves the current sound without additional compression, but it does not restore data lost during compression.

What are the limits?

Up to 100 MB and 5 minutes of audio. For longer recordings, use a desktop converter.
