WAV (Waveform Audio File Format) is a standard for storing raw and uncompressed audio developed by Microsoft and IBM. It uses PCM encoding and is known for its excellent sound quality and wide compatibility.
WAV files are widely used in professional audio environments, including recording, editing, and mastering, but they take up more space than compressed formats like MP3 or AAC.
How to open WAV files
WAV files are supported by nearly all media players including Windows Media Player, iTunes, VLC, and professional audio software like Adobe Audition and Logic Pro.
