What does WAV stand for?

WAV stands for Waveform Audio File Format. It is one of the most common audio formats and was created by Microsoft in collaboration with IBM. WAV files usually contain uncompressed audio data with pulse-code modulation (PCM). WAV files with uncompressed audio data take more space than MP3, MP4, or FLAC files. Sending and downloading WAV files also takes much more time and space. Therefore, WAV files are not as popular as their smaller, more portable counterparts. Read More: What does WAV stand for? >>

LIterlly, drag and drop

I trusted thre 25 people ahead of me who gave it a full five stars. Everything they said is correct. It solved a major concern and is comparable to very expensive software. I'm in my 70s and have used only Apple/Mac computers for more than 30 years. If only all apps were as well-designed.

Does the Job, Does it Right

No apparent issues or unnecessary questions (Do I want this converted file to be simultaneously compressed? No, of course not! And I'm sick of other apps asking me that same question! Don't waste my time!) My only concern is the money involved - I figure any coder with a bit of experience ought to be able to build this same product in an hour or so (I AM NO EXPERT, SO I DO NOT PUT EXCESS STOCK IN THIS CLAIM). Given that assumption, $25 is an outrageous fee to charge. If, however, I have vastly underestimated the problem of large-file conversion in computer programming, then then price matches. In any case, I am glad to have trusted the other reviewers - even if their reviews were so old as to refer to $10 purchase fees! - and to have saved myself from the brewing headache of going through all the other (truly worthless and/or insidious) apps available on the store which were quick to make claims the same as this. I will be running one final test of the program with the computer entirely disconnected from online services, in order to check that all conversions are handled locally, In which case my 5 stars will stand.

So after a long and uninteresting string of events I arrived at a situation where I had to convert some MP3 audio recodings into WAV files so they would work better with Adobe Premiere Pro which was glitching (there was a Uni’ deadline and Adobe wouldn’t play ball to allow me to download Audition). Downloaded this App in a few seconds, backed up the original dozen files and a few seconds later this App had converted them perfectly allowing them to work as I needed. Uni’ deadline met and crisis averted. Will definitely need this again as I will need to do similar over next few years. Very easy and quick.
