Questions

About converting MP3 to WAV.

Does converting MP3 to WAV restore lost quality?

No. The WAV contains exactly what the MP3 contains. It only becomes easier to edit and accepted by more tools.

How large will the WAV file be?

WAV is uncompressed, so a minute of stereo audio at CD quality takes about 10 MB. The sample rate of your MP3 stays the same, and the WAV is 24-bit when the source has more than 16 bits, otherwise 16-bit.

Will the WAV file have a watermark?

No. Converted files never get a watermark, free conversions included.

What happens to my files after the conversion?

Your files are processed on servers in the EU and deleted automatically after 24 hours.
