WAV

WAV is an uncompressed audio file format that provides high-quality sound but results in larger file sizes.

WAV (Waveform Audio File Format) is an uncompressed audio file format that offers high-quality sound with minimal loss of audio fidelity. Because it preserves the full detail of the original recording, WAV files are preferred for professional audio production and editing. However, the trade-off is that WAV files are significantly larger in size compared to compressed formats like MP3.

In podcasting, WAV files are often used during the recording and editing stages to ensure the best possible sound quality. Once editing is complete, the final product may be converted to a compressed format for distribution to manage file size and ensure compatibility with various playback devices.
