Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert M4A to AIFF?

M4A (MPEG-4 Audio) uses lossy or lossless (AAC/ALAC) encoding and is best for Apple ecosystem — iTunes, iPhones, iPads, and macOS music libraries. AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) uses uncompressed lossless encoding and excels at Apple professional audio — Logic Pro, GarageBand, and macOS music production workflows. Converting between them lets you take advantage of each format's strengths — for example, using a compressed format for sharing and a lossless format for editing. All conversion happens locally in your browser with no file size limits.

Why AIFF for Logic?

Logic and GarageBand ingest AIFF natively with full metadata and region support. M4A works but AIFF edits smoother on Apple timelines.

Quality cost?

None from ALAC sources (bit-perfect); one lossy generation from AAC (transparent at high bitrates). Check the source codec first.

How big are AIFF outputs?

Uncompressed like WAV — ~10 MB per stereo minute. Large but edit-friendly; archive FLAC separately.

Do Logic-bound files upload?

No — conversion runs locally in your browser with FFmpeg. Only saves touch the network — downloads are unlimited.
