Part 1 What’s So Good About AIFF?

But okay, what’s the deal with AIFF? Is it really all that good? And, if it is, why? For the first part of this article, we’ve prepared a short overview on the AIFF file format You can skip ahead though if you’d prefer to see the tutorial on AIFF Converters or our list of recommendations.

01What’s AIFF?

AIFF, also called the Audio Interchange File Format, is an audio file format that was popularized in 1988. It was based on the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format and is probably most familiar for Mac users. It’s accepted by most media players, including Apple Music and the Apple QuickTime Player.

02Why Is It So Popular?

Why? Well, it all has to do with the loss of quality. AIFF files are notable because they are uncompressed — leading to an inarguably better sound. That makes it popular with content creators, who want to provide the best possible listening experience to their audience. The caveat to this, of course, is that its uncompressed state means that it takes up a lot more space on one’s disk drive. But, many people would be willing to give that up in exchange for the enhanced sound.

Highlights	Highlights
● Supports a variety of file input and output formats● Special AIFF Converter available for easy conversion● File upload can be done both manually or through a URL	● Available online only● Most compatible for Mac users (as is evident from the name)● Not the best for bulk conversions

The next one up is Online Converter This one is more like ZAMZAR than Convert on Mac. If only because it also comes with a max file size that is locked. It’s more limited though — in that it doesn’t support as many input and output formats. And, as you can no doubt guess from the interface, quite old-school as well.

Highlights	Highlights
● Specialized AIFF Converter● Functions as a converter for other file types as well● Large max file size	● Available online only● Max upload file size is 200MB● Slower, less efficient conversion speed

**4. Wondershare Filmora Video Editor

For this next AIFF Converter, we make a complete departure from your general converters by introducing a completely different beast altogether Specifically, in the form of a Video Editor called Filmora.

Highlights	Highlights
● High-quality video and audio conversion● Supports dozens of input and output formats● FREE trial available	● Limited FREE Trial● Supports Windows OS only● Download and installation is required for use

**6. Wondershare UniConverter

This next software, the ‘Wondershare UniConverter’ is a bit of a mix between Filmora and EaseUS Video Converter. As is evident from the UI (shown-off in the screenshot provided), it has the makings of a straightforward converter but with extra tools (i.e., video editor, video compressor, merger, screen recorder, etc.) that you can take advantage of while working on your conversions.

Highlights	Highlights
● Extra features for editing input and output files● Supports up to 1000 formats● High-speed Conversion rates	● FREEmium program● Certain functions are locked in the FREE version of the program● Download and installation is required for use

It’s not the most efficient, but with iTunes’ AIFF Encoder, conversion to AIFF is possible (converting from AIFF to MP3, and WAV is also possible because iTunes provides Encoders for those as well).

Highlights	Highlights
● FREE software, pre-installed on Mac computers● Quality settings to ensure good sound quality● AIFF-specific converter	● No bulk-conversions available● Inefficient AIFF conversion● It will need to be downloaded and installed manually for Windows

“I need to convert some general audio files to AIFF, do you have any recommendations?”

We do, in fact, have some recommendations for you! The AIFF file format, while generally obscure, is accepted by most general audio converters! So, we didn’t have any problem finding some that you can use to AIFF converter!

In this article

01 [What’s So Good About AIFF?](#Part 1)

02 [How to Convert M4A to AIFF Free and Easily](#Part 2)

03 [What Makes AIFF Converter the Best Free Online Tool for Mac Users?](#Part 3)

Part 1 What’s So Good About AIFF?

But okay, what’s the deal with AIFF? Is it really all that good? And, if it is, why? For the first part of this article, we’ve prepared a short overview on the AIFF file format You can skip ahead though if you’d prefer to see the tutorial on AIFF Converters or our list of recommendations.

01What’s AIFF?

AIFF, also called the Audio Interchange File Format, is an audio file format that was popularized in 1988. It was based on the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format and is probably most familiar for Mac users. It’s accepted by most media players, including Apple Music and the Apple QuickTime Player.

02Why Is It So Popular?

Why? Well, it all has to do with the loss of quality. AIFF files are notable because they are uncompressed — leading to an inarguably better sound. That makes it popular with content creators, who want to provide the best possible listening experience to their audience. The caveat to this, of course, is that its uncompressed state means that it takes up a lot more space on one’s disk drive. But, many people would be willing to give that up in exchange for the enhanced sound.

Part 2 How to Convert M4A to AIFF Free and Easily

For this next section, we’ll be teaching you how to convert M4A to AIFF with an online AIFF converter. The benefit of using an online converter like the one we’ll be showing you how to use is that it is usually FREE and very efficient. This makes it a perfect solution for those who are just looking to convert to or from AIFF occasionally and thus has no need for a more permanent solution.

01Step 1: Launch Online AIFF Converter & Upload Files

Once you’re on-site, make use of the upload options to prepare your file to be converted. In this case, we uploaded an MP3 file, but it will work for M4A to AIFF just as well (along with other file formats.)

02Step 2: Convert to ‘AIFF’

Once the file that you want to convert has finished uploading, confirm that the output file format has been set to “AIFF”.

03Step 3: Play with Advanced Settings

This is optional, but if you want, you can adjust certain audio parameters by taking advantage of the ‘Advanced Settings’ option

04Step 4: Convert M4A to AIFF

Now it’s time to finally convert In this case, that is as easy as selecting the ‘Convert to AIFF’ button.

05Step 5: Download AIFF

When the conversion has been completed, click the ‘Download AIFF’ to finish up and save the converted AIFF file to your computer.

Keywords: aiff converter, m4a to aiff, convert m4a to aiff

**1. Zamzar

For the first AIFF Converter on this list, we have ZAMZAR ZAMZAR is an online file conversion tool that is capable of converting in a variety of file formats. Of course, the one that we’ll be looking at today is Zamzar’s AIFF Converter — which is almost 100% FREE to use (there’s a max upload file size that can only be unlocked if you pay the premium fee).

Highlights	Highlights

**2. ConvertOnMac

Our next recommended tool is Convert on Mac This is another online tool that can be used to convert a variety of files (i.e., audio, video, image, document, etc). The one that we’ll be focusing on though is Convert on Mac’s AIFF Converter

Highlights	Highlights
● Supports a variety of file input and output formats● Special AIFF Converter available for easy conversion● File upload can be done both manually or through a URL	● Available online only● Most compatible for Mac users (as is evident from the name)● Not the best for bulk conversions

**3. Online Converter

The next one up is Online Converter This one is more like ZAMZAR than Convert on Mac. If only because it also comes with a max file size that is locked. It’s more limited though — in that it doesn’t support as many input and output formats. And, as you can no doubt guess from the interface, quite old-school as well.

Highlights	Highlights
● Specialized AIFF Converter● Functions as a converter for other file types as well● Large max file size	● Available online only● Max upload file size is 200MB● Slower, less efficient conversion speed

With ‘EaseUS Video Converter’ we continue on our trend of AIFF conversion software This one, despite its name suggesting otherwise, functions as a solid Audio Converter So far, it’s closest to Filmora Pro when compared to all the others on this list.

Highlights	Highlights
● High-quality video and audio conversion● Supports dozens of input and output formats● FREE trial available	● Limited FREE Trial● Supports Windows OS only● Download and installation is required for use

**6. Wondershare UniConverter

This next software, the ‘Wondershare UniConverter’ is a bit of a mix between Filmora and EaseUS Video Converter. As is evident from the UI (shown-off in the screenshot provided), it has the makings of a straightforward converter but with extra tools (i.e., video editor, video compressor, merger, screen recorder, etc.) that you can take advantage of while working on your conversions.

Highlights	Highlights
● Extra features for editing input and output files● Supports up to 1000 formats● High-speed Conversion rates	● FREEmium program● Certain functions are locked in the FREE version of the program● Download and installation is required for use

Mar 27, 2024• Proven solutions

Back in 1999, Apple launched Final Cut Pro, and the software didn’t take so long to become the first choice for video editors and post-production agencies.

The main feature it has that makes it stands out from any other video-editing software out there is that it is made exclusively to operate on Mac only, and that allowed Apple to make it fully enhanced for speed and efficiency enabling it toedit 4K UHD footage with no rendering issues.

This software is, in essence, a user interface for other open-source tools that are somewhat user-unfriendly, enabling an understandable user interface for the best free tools out there. As a software package though, there is nothing wrong with this approach, and the tools available for joining and merging are first-rate, and the software works very fast, whilst offering a wide range of compatible video formats.

The interface is a little clunky, but it does the job and the software has additional tools for other editing work such as cutting and trimming as well, the added functionality in combination with a more basic interface can make some operations a touch confusing though.

Ultimately a little more complicated to use, but very good.

7. Cyberlink PowerDirector 365

PowerDirector 365 is a professional video editor in the Cyberlink family. It is a great Final Cut Pro alternative on Windows . Users can use multiple cameras to make various green-screen effects and make split-screen effects. What’s more, you can control frame-by-frame with its motion tracking. It also supports using plug-ins ranging from animated titles to travel packs. The official recommendation of the operating system is Windows 10/8/7. It works best on 64 bit.

Vegas Pro is a long-standing professional video editing software on Windows. Now, it just released Pro 17 to give it more features, so it is also an excellent Final Cut Pro alternative.

● It is also versatile. For example, audio files coded with the M4A extension and MPEG-4 visual bitstreams encoded in the M4V extension.

● Audio can drift out of the way or connect with the video in specific scenarios because of codec-player or codecs compatibility issues.

● Because a single file can contain video and audio and different metadata, editing or playback or editing needs various computing resources.

● It is still a lossy format. A higher compression format and smaller file size would result in audio and video quality losses.

● The familiarity of the MP4 format, coupled with its portability, has also enabled the illegal distribution of copyrighted audio-video files.
