HD Convert allows you to convert audio clips into various file formats, including WAV. The conversion process is straightforward, fast, and secure. Ideal for beginners. When converting, you have a choice between two options: free and premium. The free option contains an audible watermark and the quality is capped below HD, while premium allows you to bring your audio clip to life in WAV form.
However, we must note that the final audio quality of the converted WAV file is dependant on the original uploaded file. For instance, if the audio file you upload (e.g. MP3) is of low quality, we cannot improve this quality. Instead, you would need to save the original file in a different format, or alternatively re-capture the audio clip.

Why convert your video format to WAV?
The WAV file format is older than others, but nonetheless is still widely used. One of the main benefits of this file format is its lossless compression. This means audio files can be reduced in file size for download without sacrificing on quality. Compressing and converting audio formats into WAV is excellent for sending audio files via email or uploading it to the cloud.
Also, WAV files are widely recognized and playable on virtually all devices, including iPhone, tablet, desktop, and laptop.
What are the benefits of using the WAV format?
There are numerous benefits to using a WAV file; however, these include:
Lossless compression
High-quality
As discussed previously, WAV files contain lossless compression. This reduces the overall file size without sacrificing on quality. Also, the WAV file format is highly recognizable, easily accessible from several devices whether that be a tablet, iPhone, or desktop, amongst others.
Alongside excellent compression, WAV files are also super high-quality. For this reason, WAV files are often chosen over MP3 formats when high-quality audio is a must, e.g. documentary or other important video audio.
Are there any downsides?
No matter which audio file format you choose to convert too, you will experience one or two downsides. For example, WAV files, if not compressed will consume a much larger file size than other formats, such as MP3.
However, this is because the quality is higher, so it really is a two-edged sword. With that being said, there is no reason not to compress WAV files as the quality is not affected, instead, the file size is simply reduced.
With a smaller file size, your audio clip can be sent to others via email attachment, pen drive, or uploaded to the cloud, with less file space taken up.
Buy premium
As mentioned beforehand, there are two main options of conversion: free and premium. The free option of HD Convert contains an audible watermark and the quality is capped just below HD.
However, purchasing a premium HD Convert package removes this watermark and unlocks higher-quality audio conversions, such as Ultra HD playback. Also, the conversion process becomes quicker and there is no file size limit, allowing you to convert to your heart’s content.
