* wav – standard audio file container format used mainly in Windows PCs. Commonly
used for storing uncompressed (PCM), CD-quality sound files, which means that they
can be large in size—around 10 MB per minute. Wave files can also contain data
encoded with a variety of (lossy) codecs to reduce the file size (for example the GSM or
mp3 codecs). Wav files use a RIFF structure.
* ogg – a free, open source container format supporting a variety of codecs, the most
popular of which is the audio codec Vorbis. Vorbis offers compression similar to MP3
but is less popular.
* mpc - Musepack or MPC (formerly known as MPEGplus, MPEG+ or MP+) is an
open source lossy audio codec, specifically optimized for transparent compression of
stereo audio at bitrates of 160–180 kbit/s.
* flac – Free Lossless Audio Codec, a lossless compression codec.
* aiff – the standard audio file format used by Apple. It is like a wav file for the Mac.
* raw – a raw file can contain audio in any codec but is usually used with PCM audio
data. It is rarely used except for technical tests.
* au – the standard audio file format used by Sun, Unix and Java. The audio in au files
can be PCM or compressed with the μ-law, a-law or G729 codecs.
* mp3 – MPEG Layer-3 format is the most popular format for downloading and storing
music. By eliminating portions of the audio file that are less audible, mp3 files are
compressed to roughly one-tenth the size of an equivalent PCM file sacrificing quality.
* aac – the Advanced Audio Coding format is based on the MPEG2 and MPEG4
standards. aac files are usually ADTS or ADIF containers.
* mp4/m4a – MPEG-4 audio most often AAC but sometimes MP2/MP3, MPEG-4 SLS,
CELP, HVXC and other audio object types defined in MPEG-4 Audio
* wma – the popular Windows Media Audio format owned by Microsoft. Designed with
Digital Rights Management (DRM) abilities for copy protection.
* atrac (.wav) – the older style Sony ATRAC format. It always has a .wav file extension.
To open these files simply install the ATRAC3 drivers.
* ra & rm – a Real Audio format designed for streaming audio over the Internet. The
.ra format allows files to be stored in a self -contained fashion on a computer, with all of
the audio data contained inside the file itself.
* ram – a text file that contains a link to the Internet address where the Real Audio file
is stored. The .ram file contains no audio data itself.
* dss – Digital Speech Standard files are an Olympus proprietary format. It is a fairly
old and poor codec. Gsm or mp3 are generally preferred where the recorder allows. It
allows additional data to be held in the file header.
* msv – a Sony proprietary format for Memory Stick compressed voice files.
* dvf – a Sony proprietary format for compressed voice files; commonly used by Sony
dictation recorders.
* IVS – A proprietary version with Digital Rights Management developed by 3D Solar
UK Ltd for use in music downloaded from their Tronme Music Store and interactive
music and video player.
* m4p – A proprietary version of AAC in MP4 with Digital Rights Management
developed by Apple for use in music downloaded from their iTunes Music Store.
* iklax – An iKlax Media proprietary format, the iKlax format is a multi-track digital
audio format allowing various actions on musical data, for instance on mixing and
volumes arrangements.
* mxp4 – a Musinaut proprietary format allowing play of different versions (or skins) of
the same song. It allows various interactivity scenarios between the artist and the end
user.
* 3gp - multimedia container format can contain proprietary formats as AMR, AMR-WB or AMR-WB+, but also some open formats
* amr - AMR-NB audio, used primarily for speech
* awb - AMR-WB audio, used primarily for speech
