Frequently Asked Questions
Is FLAC to WAV conversion lossless?
Yes, completely. FLAC is a lossless format, so converting to WAV produces a bit-identical copy of the original audio. No quality is lost.
Why would I convert FLAC to WAV?
Professional audio tools (Pro Tools, some hardware samplers) sometimes require WAV. Also useful for CD burning and audio editing workflows.
Will the file be larger?
Yes. WAV is uncompressed, so files roughly double in size compared to FLAC. A 25MB FLAC file becomes about 50MB as WAV.
Can I convert back to FLAC later?
Absolutely. Since both formats are lossless, you can convert back and forth without any quality degradation.
Does Pro Tools accept FLAC files?
Not natively in older versions. Pro Tools HD and older Pro Tools versions require WAV or AIFF. Convert FLAC to WAV before importing into Pro Tools to avoid any compatibility issues.
Will the WAV work for CD burning?
Yes. The output is standard 16-bit PCM WAV at the source sample rate (typically 44.1 kHz for CD-sourced FLAC). Drop it directly into iTunes, Nero, Burn (macOS), or Windows Media Player for CD burning.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser using FFmpeg WebAssembly. Your FLAC file never leaves your device.
