    About FLAC and WAV

    FLAC: FLAC is an open lossless format that shrinks audio to 50–60% of WAV size without losing any quality. It is the favourite format of audiophiles and hi-res music stores.

    WAV: WAV stores uncompressed PCM audio, so it keeps every bit of the original sound. Files are large, but WAV is the standard for audio editing, studios and professional software.
