Frequently Asked Questions
Why convert WAV to MP3?
WAV files are uncompressed and very large. MP3 files use compression to reduce file size by up to 90% while maintaining good audio quality. This makes them easier to share, email, and store.
Which bitrate should I choose?
128kbps is good for most uses and provides a good balance between quality and file size. 192kbps offers better quality for music. 320kbps is the highest quality MP3 format and sounds nearly identical to the original WAV.
Will I lose audio quality?
MP3 is a lossy format, so some audio data is removed during compression. However, at 192kbps or 320kbps, the difference is barely noticeable to most listeners. WAV files contain more data but are much larger.
Is my audio uploaded to a server?
No. All audio conversion happens directly in your browser using WebAssembly technology. Your WAV files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
How much smaller will my files be?
MP3 files are typically 80-90% smaller than WAV files. A 50 MB WAV file might become 5 MB as an MP3 at 128kbps, or 8 MB at 192kbps. The exact size depends on the bitrate you choose.
