Frequently Asked Questions - Audio Conversion
Which audio formats are supported?
MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A (AAC), OGG/Vorbis, OGG/Opus, AAC, WMA, AIFF, and AMR are supported for bidirectional audio-to-audio transcoding.
Will audio quality be preserved during conversion?
For lossless-to-lossless conversions (e.g., WAV to FLAC), quality is fully preserved. For conversions to lossy formats (e.g., WAV to MP3), quality depends on the bitrate you select - 320 kbps MP3 is near-transparent for most listeners.
How can I extract audio from a video file?
To demux and extract audio from MP4, MKV, MOV, or WebM video files, use our dedicated Video to MP3 converter designed specifically for video containers.
Are artist and album tags preserved?
Yes. ID3 tags (MP3), Vorbis comments (OGG/FLAC), and iTunes metadata (M4A) are preserved and mapped across formats where the target format supports them.
Is my audio kept private?
Files are encrypted in transit and at rest.
