What is a AU file?
This type of file represents a simple audio file that was primarily common on NeXT systems and early Web pages. The AU file format was, at first, used by Sun or some similar Unix-based machine, but now, it can be opened with other audio programs as well. To reproduce this file format, you can use Nullsoft Winamp, Apple QuickTime Player, Microsoft Windows Media Player, RealNetworks, RealPlayer Cloud, or Adobe Audition CC. Although AU files are quite small and have poor sound quality, they store information in three sections. The first one is called header, with a maximum of 24 bytes. Next, there’s a variable-length annotation block. And last but not least, there’s the audio data itself.
What is a WAV file?
WAV, also known as WAVE, or Waveform Audio File Format, is a subset of RIFF specification for storing digital audio files. WAV file extension uses containers to contain the audio in raw and typically uncompressed chunks. It stores the audio recordings with different sampling rates and bitrates. This file format also uses containers to store audio data, track numbers, sample rates, as well as a bit rate. WAV files are the number one choice when it comes to storing audio to CD. Their size is larger than the size of some other formats, such as MP3s. Luckily, they can be compressed with Audio Compression Manager codecs and easily converter with our converter. WAV files are widely used, and many programs can open them on different platforms such as Windows Media Player, Winamp, iTunes, VLC, and QuickTime.
