Questions
Does converting MP3 to WAV lose quality?
Nothing more is lost, but the detail MP3 already discarded doesn’t come back.
What is the WAV format?
A container that stores uncompressed PCM audio, the working format of recording studios because the samples are kept exactly as they were captured. Files grow fast, so it’s used for editing and mastering rather than for delivery.
What is the MP3 format?
A lossy codec where the audio is cut down by removing sounds the ear can’t hear, so a track keeps a reasonable size at a typical bitrate. It’s still the most widely playable audio format, which is why it’s the default for sharing music.
Are the files uploaded?
No. The file is opened in this tab, converted here and saved from here. There’s no account and no watermark.
How many files can be converted at once?
Up to 200 per batch and about 2 GB per file, within the memory this device has available.
