Whatever kind of audio you're holding: a voice memo, a session export, something a client sent: flipping it to WAV gets you a file built for recording, editing and mastering, where every last bit matters. Flippy reads practically any audio format and writes clean WAV, so you don't even need to know what the original is.

Why flip audio to WAV

Whatever the recording, audio just wants to be heard: the trick is picking a shape that plays where you need it. It was born in wherever your microphone, DAW or download came from, and its real weak spot is nothing in particular; the limits belong to whichever format it happens to be wearing.

WAV is audio with nothing taken away: every sample intact, every megabyte accounted for. Raw PCM samples in a RIFF wrapper. No compression of any kind. That makes it the right destination when what you need is recording, editing and mastering, where every last bit matters.

Questions people ask

Will converting audio to WAV lose quality?

Flippy always picks the gentlest path: container swaps and extractions copy your streams untouched, and re-encodes happen once, at quality matched to the source.

Will the WAV file be bigger or smaller than my audio?

It depends on the format you pick as the output: lossy formats land a few megabytes per minute, lossless several times that.

Where will the WAV file play?

Universal on desktops and pro audio gear; clumsy on the mobile web. That's the usual reason people leave audio behind: WAV simply opens in more of the places that matter.

How long does audio to WAV conversion take?

Seconds for most files: audio is light work. A long recording might take a minute; your file auto-deletes from our servers within an hour either way.
