Waveform Audio File Format
Uncompressed studio audio
WAV stores raw PCM audio exactly as it was recorded, without compression. It is the standard working format of audio editors, music production software and broadcasting.
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.
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 WAV files to the converter above. M4A 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.
M4A 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 WAV original if you want a perfect archive.
AAC at 192 kbps sounds as good as MP3 at 256 kbps. Use 256 kbps for Apple Music quality, or 96–128 kbps for audiobooks and podcasts.
No. The WAV to M4A 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 M4A file separately or all of them together as a ZIP archive.
