About AIFF
AIFF
AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) is an uncompressed audio container developed by Apple, based on the IFF structure. Like WAV it preserves full audio fidelity and is widely used in professional audio production on macOS, being the default format for Logic Pro and other DAWs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AIFF file?▼
AIFF is Apple's uncompressed audio format — the Mac equivalent of WAV. It keeps studio-quality sound and is common in music production, but files are very large.
AIFF vs WAV — what is the difference?▼
Practically speaking, quality is identical: both store uncompressed PCM audio. AIFF is native to Apple workflows, WAV to Windows — most modern software reads both.
Why convert AIFF to MP3 or FLAC?▼
AIFF files are about 10× the size of MP3. FLAC halves the size with zero quality loss for archiving; MP3 makes tracks shareable and phone-friendly.
Should I archive in AIFF or FLAC?▼
FLAC — it is also lossless, roughly half the size, and better tagged. Convert AIFF masters to FLAC for storage and keep AIFF only for active projects.
Can I convert multiple AIFF files at once?▼
Yes, batch conversion works — drop your whole session folder and convert privately in your browser.
