Description🔵 .mp (MPEG Layer Audio) The .mp format is an audio coding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression. It is a common audio format for consumer audio streaming or storage, as well as a standard de facto codec for the transfer and playback of music on most digital audio players. MP files compress audio data by eliminating sounds that are outside the hearing range of most people, thus reducing the file size without significantly affecting the perceived sound quality.
Technical details🔵 The `.mp3` format, MPEG-1 Audio Layer III, is a widely-used digital audio format. Here are the key technical details:
- Lossy Compression: Reduces file size by eliminating less audible sounds.
- Compression Ratio: Generally around 10:1, striking a balance between quality and size.
- Bitrate: Encoded at various rates, impacting quality and size.
- Sampling Rates: Supports a range of rates, including CD quality.
- Channel Modes: Provides options for mono, stereo, joint stereo, and dual channel.
- Metadata: Stores information like title, artist, and genre (ID3 tags).
- Streaming: Well-suited for internet audio streaming.
- Universal Playback: Works with most devices and software.
- Variable Bitrate (VBR): Adjusts bitrate dynamically for efficiency.
- Frequency Range: Covers 20 Hz to 20 kHz (the range of human hearing).
- File Size: Significantly smaller than uncompressed audio.
- Psychoacoustic Model: Eliminates less audible frequencies.
- Developed by Fraunhofer Society in the 1990s. MP3 transformed the music industry with its effective compression and broad compatibility, facilitating digital audio storage and sharing.

Description🔵 WAV is a straightforward audio format that was developed in the early 1990s by Microsoft and IBM. It is a lossless format, which often results in large file sizes.
WAV files have superior sound quality compared to MP3s as they are uncompressed and maintain all elements of the original sound. This makes them perfect for applications like broadcasting CD music, TV, and radio. Designed to store audio bitstreams on CDs, WAV files tend to be larger than most other audio formats. Due to their lack of compression, WAV files are ideal for sound processing in digital audio workstations (DAWs).
Technical details🔵 How to create and how to open an WAV file?
There are many ways to create a WAV and virtually all digital audio workstations used by beat and music composers record and save using the WAV format. You can also convert other audio files to WAV and vice versa. To create a WAV file, simply open the audio in any program that supports the format and save. Recording tools and apps also render in WAV.
Virtually all players that support MP3s also support WAV, so opening a WAV audio file should be effortless. Windows and Mac users can open WAV files using VLC, local media players, audio editors, online converters and players, DAWs and more. You can also play WAV files using the native player that comes with your Android and iOS smartphone.
Which other formats WAV can be converted into and why?
As the simplest audio file format, WAV can be converted to almost any audio format. You can also convert other audio files to WAV. Here are the common conversions.
MP3
WMA
FLAC
MIDI
WAV to MP3 conversions are the most popular among portable device users and streamers. WAV files are uncompressed and lossless, so they tend to be very large, making them impractical for streaming and carrying in portable devices with limited storage. As such, most people convert WAV to MP3 files, which are up to 10 times smaller.
As lossless file formats, WAVs offer the best sound quality and retain all elements, including reverbs, guitar sounds and transients. They are the perfect format for music composers, producers and sound designers. They are also supported by many platforms and programs, so you won’t have to convert to another format. However, you’ll probably need to compress them when sending, streaming to save space and bandwidth.
