About WAV and AIFF Formats

What is WAV?

WAV was introduced by Microsoft and IBM in 1991 and stores audio as uncompressed PCM samples. CD-quality stereo WAV (16-bit, 44.1 kHz) uses about 10 MB per minute, and every audio editor, DAW and media player can open it.

  • Recording, editing and mixing in any DAW
  • Mastering and archiving at full quality
  • Broadcast, sampling and sound-design work
  • Maximum compatibility with hardware and software

What is AIFF?

AIFF was created by Apple in 1988 and, like WAV, stores uncompressed PCM audio. The two are equivalent in quality; AIFF is simply more common on macOS and in Logic Pro.

Commonly used for:

  • Mac-based music production
  • Logic Pro and GarageBand projects
  • Professional audio exchange

Why convert WAV to AIFF?

Some Mac workflows and older Apple software prefer AIFF; the conversion is lossless because both formats store PCM.
