About MP3 to WAV

Audio editors, some DJ and video software, and CD burning tools work best with WAV, the uncompressed format. This converter decodes your MP3 and saves it as a standard WAV file.

The WAV will be much larger, and it can't bring back detail the MP3 already removed; it simply makes the sound easy to edit without further loss. Everything happens in your browser.

Use WAV when a program refuses MP3, when you plan to cut, mix or apply effects, or when a CD burning tool asks for it. Editing a WAV and saving it again changes nothing, whereas saving an MP3 again loses a little more each time.

A minute of stereo WAV takes about 10 MB, roughly ten times as much as the MP3 at 128 kbps, so the files grow quickly. You can drop several MP3 files at once and download the WAVs together as a ZIP. The conversion also works offline once the page has loaded.
