    AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) is Apple's 1988 counterpart to WAV - an uncompressed PCM container that remains the standard export format in Logic Pro, GarageBand and many professional studios to this day. Like WAV, it is excellent for editing but poor for sharing: the files are huge.

    The tool decodes the raw PCM samples from the AIFF file and encodes them with libmp3lame to MP3 at the chosen bitrate. That turns a finished, mixed studio export into a small file, playable anywhere, ready to share or upload.

    Since AIFF itself compresses nothing, the chosen MP3 bitrate alone decides the quality - for a finished mix, 256 or 320 kbps pays off. Everything runs entirely locally in the browser, your finished master never leaves your device.

    FAQ

    Is my file uploaded?

    No, the conversion runs entirely locally in the browser.

    What is the difference between AIFF and WAV?

    Both store uncompressed PCM; AIFF comes from Apple and orders the bytes big-endian, WAV from Microsoft/IBM little-endian - sonically identical.

    Should I keep the AIFF original?

    Yes, for archiving or further mixing, AIFF stays lossless - MP3 is meant only for playback/sharing.

    Where do typical AIFF files come from?

    Usually from Logic Pro, GarageBand, Pro Tools exports or older Mac music archives.
