WMA to WAV Converter

WMA (Windows Media Audio)

The WMA extension is a proprietary audio file compressed using Windows Media Compression. It is a proprietary format developed by Microsoft. This file is both an audio codec and an audio format. This file format was created by Windows to compete with other popular compressed audio formats. We must pay tribute to Microsoft: using their virtually unlimited resources, they have achieved the implementation of support for their brainchild in almost all hardware and software players. Microsoft has implemented support for DRM in WMA, a digital copyright management system that allows you to sell protected songs using special services. There are many WMA sub-formats, including WMA Pro, a lossy codec that supports high-resolution audio; WMA Lossless, a lossless codec that compresses audio without losing quality; and WMA Voice, a lossy codec designed for applications that support voice playback.

WAV (Waveform Audio File Format)

The WAV format is designed to work with a digitized audio stream, contains musical compositions, voice recordings and various audio effects. It is the best audio format for processing and storing uncompressed audio data that is similar in quality to CDs. One minute of sound in it weighs about 10 MB. WAV occupies a significant amount of memory space, much more than other popular formats, so very few people use this format to store their own audio library on a computer. The Wave format is needed for the release of a disc, LP, download for sale on sites, and must be with the parameters of 16 bit 44.1 KHz. It is also used in audio editing programs to save time on compressing and decompressing data. The WAV format is only a container file, and the audio content is compressed using a wide variety of codecs.
