What is a CDDA file?
CDDA stands for Compact Disc Digital Audio, the standard format used for audio CDs. It’s defined by the Red Book standard and stores uncompressed PCM audio with 16-bit resolution at a 44.1 kHz sampling rate. This ensures high-quality sound reproduction, closely matching what was originally recorded in the studio.
CDDA files are typically extracted from audio CDs and saved with extensions like .cda or .wav. Although streaming has largely replaced physical media, CDDA is still used in professional audio production and archival purposes where quality matters.
How to open CDDA files
CDDA files usually appear as .cda shortcuts on Windows when browsing an audio CD. To open or play CDDA tracks, you can use Windows Media Player, VLC, or iTunes.
To preserve or share CDDA audio, extract (rip) the tracks to WAV, FLAC, or MP3 using AnyConv or dedicated CD ripping software.
