Is my audio file uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool reads only the filename and file size using the browser File API — no data leaves your device. The FFmpeg command is generated entirely in your browser.

AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) is an uncompressed audio format developed by Apple. It delivers CD-quality sound but results in large file sizes compared to compressed formats like OGG.

OGG Vorbis is a free, open-source, lossy audio codec. It provides excellent quality at low bitrates and is patent-free, making it popular for web audio, games, and open-source projects.

What quality level should I choose?

Quality 3–4 (~112–128 kbps) is suitable for general music listening. Quality 5–6 (~160–192 kbps) offers high quality. Quality 8–10 (~256–500 kbps) is for archival or audiophile use. Quality 0–2 is for voice or low-bandwidth scenarios.

Do I need FFmpeg installed?

Yes. FFmpeg is a free, open-source tool available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Install it from ffmpeg.org, then paste the generated command in your terminal.

Can I convert .aif files too?

Yes. Both .aiff and .aif are the same format. FFmpeg handles both extensions automatically — just select or type in either file extension.

What encoder does FFmpeg use for OGG?

FFmpeg uses the libvorbis encoder for OGG Vorbis output. The -q:a flag sets the variable bitrate quality from 0 (lowest) to 10 (highest). Alternatively, you can use -b:a to set a fixed bitrate like 128k.

About AIFF and OGG Vorbis

AIFF Uncompressed Apple format. Lossless, large files. Common in GarageBand and Pro Tools on macOS.

OGG Free, open-source, patent-free lossy format. Excellent quality-to-size ratio. Widely supported in games, browsers, and Linux systems.

Converting AIFF to OGG is a one-way lossy process. Keep your AIFF originals if you need lossless copies.

Summary

Drop or select an AIFF file to inspect its details, then copy the FFmpeg command to convert it to OGG Vorbis.

How it works

Select or drag-and-drop your AIFF file into the drop zone.
The tool reads the filename and size locally — nothing is uploaded.
Choose your target OGG Vorbis quality level (0–10 scale).
Click "Copy Command" to copy the FFmpeg command to your clipboard.
Paste the command in your terminal and run it to convert the file.

Use cases

Convert AIFF recordings to OGG for web audio delivery.
Reduce file size while maintaining good quality for game audio assets.
Batch-convert multiple AIFF files using the same FFmpeg pattern.
Create OGG files for use in HTML5 games or browser-based applications.
Archive large AIFF masters while keeping compressed OGG copies for distribution.
Convert macOS GarageBand AIFF exports for cross-platform use.
Prepare audio for open-source projects that prefer patent-free formats.
Optimize audio for Linux environments where OGG has native support.
