WAV, short for Waveform Audio File Format, is a standard audio file format developed by IBM and Microsoft in 1991. It is widely used for storing uncompressed audio data on Windows systems. WAV files are known for their high audio quality and large file sizes, making them suitable for professional audio editing and applications where audio fidelity is paramount. The format supports various bit depths and sampling rates, enabling versatile audio data manipulation. WAV files are often used in professional audio recording, editing, and mastering due to their ability to maintain audio integrity without compression artifacts.
The M4A file extension, standing for MPEG-4 Audio, is a digital audio format developed by Apple in the early 2000s as part of the MPEG-4 standard. It utilizes Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) or Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) for efficient compression, offering high-quality audio at lower bitrates. M4A files are commonly used for storing music, audiobooks, and podcasts, particularly within Apple's ecosystem, including iTunes and iPod. This format emerged to provide better sound quality and smaller file sizes compared to MP3, aiming to become the new standard in audio compression.
