What is a AIFC file?
AIFC (Audio Interchange File Format Compressed) is a variation of AIF that supports compression to save space while retaining much of the original quality. It was introduced to give audio professionals and developers a more storage-efficient option.
AIFC supports several compression algorithms and can include metadata. It offers a middle ground between raw AIF files and more aggressive compression formats like MP3 or AAC.
How to open AIFC files
AIFC files can be opened with many of the same tools as AIF — including Logic Pro, iTunes, VLC, and Audacity. Support may vary depending on the codec used for compression.
