Will WAV make an OGG sound better?

No. It preserves the decoded samples without another lossy step, but cannot recreate detail already removed by OGG.

What codecs are supported?

The browser checks the actual OGG codec and tells you if it cannot decode the track.

OGG to WAV Converter

Convert an OGG track to 16-bit PCM WAV locally. The output is uncompressed and larger, while the original file remains untouched.

Ready. Choose an OGG file, or drop one on the stage.

The Ogg is checked for Vorbis or Opus first, because a browser may decode one and not the other. The output is uncompressed 16-bit PCM at the sample rate you choose, which does not restore anything a lossy file already lost: it is a larger file, not a better one.

Decoderasked of this browser before a conversion starts
A codec with no decoder here is named up front, not halfway through.

The From control is a mode, not a guess: the first bytes of the file are read and checked against it, so a file that was renamed is refused with what it actually is. A bare AAC opens in M4A mode, a FLAC in WAV mode, and a MOV or WebM video in MP4 mode. An MP4 has its audio tracks listed before anything is extracted and its video is never decoded. Changing the sample rate resamples by linear interpolation, and changing the channel count averages a stereo pair down or copies a mono channel to both sides.

Two open source parts do the heavy lifting. Containers are parsed and audio is decoded by Mediabunny 1.55.7 under the MPL-2.0 (licence text, the exact package, source). MP3 encoding is lamejs 1.2.7 under the LGPL-3.0 (licence text, the exact package, corresponding source). Both are bundled unmodified at those versions and loaded from this page, never from another service.

Common questions

Will WAV make an OGG sound better?: No. It preserves the decoded samples without another lossy step, but cannot recreate detail already removed by OGG.
What codecs are supported?: The browser checks the actual OGG codec and tells you if it cannot decode the track.

Files are decoded and re-encoded in your browser, so nothing is uploaded. Converting cannot restore detail a lossy file already lost, and an MP3 output is a lossy encode of its own. Which formats can be decoded depends on your browser, and this page checks the file's actual bytes and its codec before starting rather than trusting the extension.
