This makes WAV one of the most widely used formats in the field of professional sound, since the sound is captured with parameters of 44100 Hz and at 16 bits, the same quality can be obtained as on a CD.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, one of the disadvantages of this format is that it has a limitation in recording, since it can only capture a maximum of 6.6 hours in the same file at maximum quality.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Audio_formats-2\"><\/span>Audio formats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AIFF\"><\/span>AIFF<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) format is very similar to WAV. It was born as an answer from Apple to Microsoft&#8217;s WAV, being initially only compatible with MAC computers. Currently it can also be used in Windows.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its characteristics, AIFF, together with FLAC and WAV, are usually the most widely used formats in the professional field of audio.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"WMA\"><\/span>WMA<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The WMA (Windows Media Audio) format is a music file format created by Microsoft.<\/p>\n<p>One of its main characteristics is that those files that have been compressed in WMA format take up less space than MP3 files, which also implies a reduction in their quality. Therefore, it is a lossy audio compression format.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"OGG\"><\/span>OGG<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>OGG audio formats are compressed audio files, which means that they have a size that allows them to be transmitted via WIFI, but at the same time they avoid the damages that are usually generated in the compression process.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Spotify uses these OGG formats.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Audio_formats-3\"><\/span>Audio formats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mp4gain.com\/mp4gain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/FLAC-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-967\" src=\"http:\/\/mp4gain.com\/mp4gain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/FLAC-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"130\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FLAC\"><\/span>FLAC<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When we talk about the FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) format, we are referring to a codec free of audio compression and without loss of quality.<\/p>\n<p>Emerged within the community responsible for the OGG project, FLAC has become one of the WAV format&#8217;s strongest competitors, due to its advantages in terms of sound quality.<\/p>\n<p>Its objective is to reduce the size of the original file, eliminating data that is usually known as &#8220;waste&#8221;, without causing loss of quality.<\/p>\n<p>This is the format used by the Tidal platform, the best high quality audio streaming service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are digital audio formats Digital audio formats are basically containers.
