About APE

Lossless

Monkey's Audio

Monkey's Audio lossless format

APE (Monkey's Audio) is a lossless format that compresses slightly better than FLAC. It is popular for CD rips in some music communities.

Strengths
Lossless, with excellent compression.
Limitations
Slow to decode, and barely supported by phones, car stereos and most players.

About OGG

Lossy

Ogg Vorbis

The open alternative to MP3

OGG files usually contain Vorbis audio, a free and patent-free lossy codec. It is common in video games, on Android and in open-source software.

Strengths
Better quality than MP3 at the same bitrate, and completely royalty-free.
Limitations
Not supported by the iPhone Music app and by many car stereos.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert APE to OGG?

Add your APE files to the converter above. OGG is already selected as the output, so conversion starts right away. When a file is ready, click Download, or use Download all to get a ZIP.

Will converting APE to OGG reduce the sound quality?

OGG is a lossy format, so some inaudible detail is discarded to make the file much smaller. At 192 kbps or more, hardly anyone can hear the difference. Keep your APE original if you want a perfect archive.

Which settings should I use for OGG?

160–192 kbps sounds transparent for most music, and 96–128 kbps is fine for speech. Vorbis handles low bitrates better than MP3.

Are my APE files uploaded anywhere?

No. The APE to OGG conversion runs entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your files are never sent to a server, so even private recordings stay on your device.

Can I convert several APE files to OGG at once?

Yes. Add up to 50 files; they are converted one after another, and you can download each OGG file separately or all of them together as a ZIP archive.
