FLAC Converter

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)

FLAC is a codec that compresses a lossless audio file. These files are often used in professional recording studios. However, this format implies some compression of information, so the same song in FLAC format can take up to half less memory than the original CD. And if, for example, you copy music from a CD into this format, it will not differ in any way from the original, regardless of its bit rate or frequency range. The compression ratio and bit rate vary depending on the complexity of the material to be compressed - for example, singing with a guitar lends itself to compression better than recording a symphony orchestra. FLAC is often used to create audio collections and are used for listening on premium equipment.
