Why convert MOV to WAV?

Save the soundtrack of a camera or phone recording as uncompressed 16-bit audio. Video frames do not appear in the WAV.

  • Why leave MOV. Windows players, many editors and web forms reject some MOV files.
  • Why use WAV. WAV suits editing, production, and master copies.
  • What you get. The WAV output contains uncompressed 16-bit audio. It is usually larger than a compressed source. The source needs an audio track. The output has no picture.
  • Kvalitet. Converting MOV to WAV cannot improve the sound. The WAV holds only the audio track, so the sound inside the MOV sets the best quality you can get. The WAV is usually much larger than the compressed sound inside the video. It is 16-bit, so a 24-bit soundtrack is reduced to 16-bit.
  • Your rights. Convert only files you own or have permission to use.
