FAQs
Why convert to WAV before editing?
Lossy formats (AAC/MP3) degrade with every re-export. Working in WAV avoids further loss — though it can't restore what AAC already discarded.
How much bigger is the WAV file?
Typically 10-15x. A 4-minute 128kbps M4A (~4MB) becomes ~40MB WAV. Compress back to MP3/M4A when done.
M4A to WAV or M4A to FLAC?
Same audio quality. WAV is universal for editors; FLAC is half the size for archiving. Edit in WAV, archive in FLAC.
