What is an .AIF file?
AIF files are audio files saved in the Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF), a standard developed by Apple in the late 1980s for storing high-quality audio. Unlike compressed formats such as MP3 or AAC, AIF files typically store uncompressed PCM audio, which preserves the full detail of the original sound but results in larger file sizes. Due to their high quality and reliability, people commonly use AIF files in professional audio recording, editing, and production.
You may encounter AIF files when working with music software on macOS, exchanging audio between studios, or handling sound effects and recordings that require lossless quality. File Viewer Plus can play your AIF files and convert the audio to other formats, including MP3 and M4A, at different bitrates and frequencies.
Alternate file extensions: .aiff
