About WAV to OGG conversion
WAV is an audio format that stores uncompressed linear PCM audio in a RIFF container. OGG is an open-source container format from Xiph.Org, typically used for compressed audio encoded with Vorbis. This conversion reduces the file size of WAV files, and adapts them for use in open-source projects and game engines that support Vorbis encoding.
The converted file size is approximately one-tenth of the original WAV. It retains the original sample rate and channel count. The OGG bitrate can be adjusted between 64kbps and 320kbps, and the original Vorbis Comment metadata tags are preserved.
The conversion output is suitable as audio assets for game engines such as Unity and Godot, and for storing audio素材 in open-source projects. It is not intended for professional audio editing scenarios, where the original WAV file should be retained.

FAQ about WAV → OGG
Will audio quality degrade after conversion?
There is perceptible change in audio quality after conversion. The original WAV is an uncompressed format, while OGG is a lossy compressed format. When using a 320kbps bitrate, the subjective audio quality is close to the original file.
Will original metadata be preserved?
Metadata contained in the original file is preserved during conversion, and written to the OGG file as Vorbis Comment tags. No original metadata content is added or modified.
What is the maximum single file size?
The maximum single file size for this tool is 50MB, and only one file can be converted per conversion job. Files exceeding the size limit will be rejected for processing.
Are files retained after conversion?
Files are uploaded to the server via HTTPS for conversion. Both the source file and output file are deleted immediately from the server after conversion completes. No files are stored.
