Drop M4A files onto the converter, paste them, or click to choose. You can add many at once.
AAC is already selected. If you like, adjust the quality, sample rate or channels before or after adding files.
Each file is converted in your browser in seconds. Save them one by one, or all at once as a ZIP.
MPEG-4 Audio
Apple's everyday music format
M4A is an MPEG-4 audio file, usually containing AAC. It is the standard format of Apple Music, iTunes and the iPhone Voice Memos app.
Advanced Audio Coding
Efficient successor to MP3
AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) was designed to replace MP3 and is used by YouTube, Apple and digital radio. An .aac file is a raw AAC stream without an MP4 container.
Audio is converted by ffmpeg running inside your browser. Your files never reach a server.
Queue up to 50 files and download them one by one or together as a ZIP.
Set the bitrate, bit depth, sample rate and channels — or simply keep the sensible defaults.
Add your M4A files to the converter above. AAC 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.
Both formats are lossy, so re-encoding adds a little loss. Choose a bitrate equal to or higher than the original (for example 192–256 kbps) and the difference will be inaudible.
192 kbps is transparent for most music and 128 kbps is plenty for speech. Choose M4A instead if you want cover art and tags to be kept.
No. The M4A to AAC 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.
Yes. Add up to 50 files; they are converted one after another, and you can download each AAC file separately or all of them together as a ZIP archive.
