AC3 supports up to six separate audio channels, allowing you to reproduce audio in formats from mono to 5.1 and even 7.1, delivering stunning surround sound. AC3 uses lossy data to compress audio data while maintaining high audio quality. This allows you to significantly reduce the size of audio files without degrading their sound. AC3 is a widely used format in the multimedia industry and is supported by most modern audio and video players and disc playback equipment. The AC3 format is widely used in DVD and Blu-ray discs to store high-quality multi-channel audio, making it a popular choice for home theaters and movie enthusiasts. AC3 is used to transmit audio signals in television programming, online video and streaming services, providing high-quality sound at relatively low data rates. The AC3 format is a standard in the multimedia industry due to its high quality audio transmission and wide compatibility with various devices and applications.
Technical details	🔵 The AC3 format uses a lossy audio codec to compress audio. Compression occurs by removing part of the audio data, which can significantly reduce the file size. AC3 supports up to six separate audio channels, allowing you to reproduce audio in formats from mono to 5.1 and even 7.1. This allows you to create stunning surround sound for cinema and home theaters. AC3 supports a variety of sampling rates, including 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and more, ensuring high-quality audio tracks. The AC3 format typically has a variable bitrate, which allows it to efficiently compress audio data depending on the complexity of the soundstage. Standard bit rates can range from 192 kbps to 640 kbps for stereo and from 384 kbps to 448 kbps for multi-channel audio. The AC3 format provides a wide dynamic range that allows you to convey both very quiet and very loud sounds with high precision and detail.

Description	🔵 WAV is a straightforward audio format that was developed in the early 1990s by Microsoft and IBM. It is a lossless format, which often results in large file sizes. WAV files have superior sound quality compared to MP3s as they are uncompressed and maintain all elements of the original sound. This makes them perfect for applications like broadcasting CD music, TV, and radio. Designed to store audio bitstreams on CDs, WAV files tend to be larger than most other audio formats. Due to their lack of compression, WAV files are ideal for sound processing in digital audio workstations (DAWs).
Technical details	🔵 How to create and how to open an WAV file? There are many ways to create a WAV and virtually all digital audio workstations used by beat and music composers record and save using the WAV format. You can also convert other audio files to WAV and vice versa. To create a WAV file, simply open the audio in any program that supports the format and save. Recording tools and apps also render in WAV. Virtually all players that support MP3s also support WAV, so opening a WAV audio file should be effortless. Windows and Mac users can open WAV files using VLC, local media players, audio editors, online converters and players, DAWs and more. You can also play WAV files using the native player that comes with your Android and iOS smartphone. Which other formats WAV can be converted into and why? As the simplest audio file format, WAV can be converted to almost any audio format. You can also convert other audio files to WAV. Here are the common conversions. MP3 WMA FLAC MIDI WAV to MP3 conversions are the most popular among portable device users and streamers. WAV files are uncompressed and lossless, so they tend to be very large, making them impractical for streaming and carrying in portable devices with limited storage. As such, most people convert WAV to MP3 files, which are up to 10 times smaller. As lossless file formats, WAVs offer the best sound quality and retain all elements, including reverbs, guitar sounds and transients. They are the perfect format for music composers, producers and sound designers. They are also supported by many platforms and programs, so you won’t have to convert to another format. However, you’ll probably need to compress them when sending, streaming to save space and bandwidth.
