Why convert AVI to WAV?
WAV is a plain, uncompressed format — the file will likely be larger than the AVI original, in exchange for maximum compatibility. The main reason to convert AVI to WAV is compatibility: WAV plays on virtually any device or app without an extra codec, while AVI isn't built for that. If you're sharing a file with someone else, sending it to a tool that expects a specific format, or archiving it for the long term, WAV is usually the safer target.

Common reasons to convert AVI to WAV
- Fitting more tracks on a device or app with limited storage
- Meeting a file-size limit for email or upload
- Maximizing compatibility with older or stricter tools that expect an uncompressed WAV file
Your file, handled carefully
Uploads use TLS in transit and AES-256 SSE-S3 at rest in production (when the production S3 credential gate is enabled), are processed in an isolated job, and deleted on the schedule you choose — as fast as immediately. We don't index, search, or share files between accounts. Read the full security model →

WAV is uncompressed pcm audio, the studio standard. We use the highest-quality encoder settings by default so visual or data loss is minimized.
