Hey,

Just wondering if someone knows of any free aiff-to-wav converters on the web.. Just recieved remixparts for a track, and i dont own a mac so meeehh.. hehe

Anyways, thanx for any help in advance

Most DAW's on the PC should be able to read .aiff's ok, so you shouldn't have to convert it.

havent tried reading them in cubase yet, but FL didnt want to open them, nor sound forge or wmplayer etc.. hmmm.. maybe its just my computer that's being ghey hehe

iTunes will do this for you. Just change the "Import Using..." setting to
"WAV Encoder" in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Importing.

Aiff should work just as well as wav. Never had a problem using them anywhere before.

soundforge supports aiff. Maybe your pc is broke?

well... AIF isn't really a 'codec' per se... because it's not compressed. the only thing different between your AIF and a WAV is that the headers of the file are different, but the raw audio info remains the same. You should be able to convert to WAV with relative ease via any of the software apps mentions above. Itunes is not going to pervert your file if the source is AIF...

make sure not the truncate the word length though if you happened to receive 24 bit files.

yeah for some reason i can't load aif files into FL either. I got a sample cd not too long ago and they're in aif format. Might as well try audition or soundforge then.
