Why convert AIFF to OPUS?
You have a large AIFF file (studio recording, software export, CD archive) and you want a small OPUS to listen to on your phone, send by email or publish online. Choose 256 or 320 kbps to keep excellent quality.
How to do it, step by step
- Drop your AIFF fileinto the area at the top of the page (or several files at once). On mobile, tap the area and pick the file from your apps.
- Check the output format: OPUS is already selected. For music, 192 kbps is transparent for most listeners and 320 kbps gives the maximum. For voice (memos, podcasts, lectures), 128 kbps is more than enough and halves the file size.
- Start the conversion.The FFmpeg engine loads once (≈ 10 MB), then each file is processed in a few seconds without leaving your device.
- Download your OPUS, directly or as a .zip if you converted several files. The name and metadata (title, artist, cover art) are preserved.
The AIFF format (Audio Interchange File Format)
AIFF is Apple's equivalent of WAV: uncompressed audio, perfect quality, large files. It is produced by Logic Pro, GarageBand and iTunes (CD import as AIFF). Outside the Mac, it often causes playback problems.
- Lossless quality
- Supports metadata (unlike WAV)
- Very large
- Rarely played outside the Mac
The OPUS format (Opus Interactive Audio Codec)
Opus is currently the most efficient audio codec: it delivers the best possible quality at very low bitrates. It is the format of WhatsApp, Telegram and Discord voice messages and of video calls. Excellent, but still poorly recognized by consumer players and car stereos.
- Exceptional quality at low bitrates
- Free format
- The standard for voice on the internet
- Very few devices play it
- Often impossible to open on Windows without extra software
