What is a SND file?

SND is a generic audio file extension used by several different formats, most commonly associated with early Macintosh and Unix systems. Depending on the origin, an SND file might contain raw audio data, u-law encoding, or even be a simple container for sound effects.

Today, SND files are mostly found in legacy applications or archives. Modern tools can often play or convert them after identifying the specific structure used inside the file.

How to open SND files

SND files can be opened using Audacity, VLC, or QuickTime depending on the specific encoding used. Some may require conversion first due to format variations.

To convert SND to WAV or MP3, use AnyConv for a fast and easy solution online.
