What is FLAC?
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is a file format for lossless audio data compression. "Lossless" means that FLAC does not remove information from the audio stream, like lossy compression formats such as MP3, AAC, and Vorbis do. FLAC's primary author is Josh Coalson.
FLAC reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without sacrificing the integrity of the audio source. A digital audio recording (such as a CD track) encoded to FLAC can be decompressed into an identical copy of the audio data. Audio sources encoded to FLAC are typically reduced in size by 40 to 50 percent (46% according to their own comparison).

What is AIFF?
Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF) is an audio file format standard used for storing sound data for personal computers and other electronic audio devices. The format was co-developed by Apple Computer in 1988 based on Electronic Arts' Interchange File Format (IFF, widely used on Amiga systems) and is most commonly used on Apple Macintosh computer systems.
The audio data in a standard AIFF file is uncompressed big-endian pulse-code modulation (PCM). There is also a compressed variant of AIFF known as AIFF-C or AIFC, with various defined compression codecs.
Standard AIFF is a leading format (along with SDII and WAV) used by professional-level audio and video applications, as unlike the better-known lossy MP3 format, it is non-compressed (which aids rapid streaming of multiple audio files from disk to the application), and lossless. Like any non-compressed, lossless format, it uses much more disk space than MP3 -- about 10MB for one minute of stereo audio at a sample rate of 44.1k and a bit depth of 16 bits. In addition to audio data, AIFF can include loop point data and the musical note of a sample, for use by hardware samplers and musical applications.
The file extension for the standard AIFF format is .aiff or .aif. For the compressed variants it is supposed to be .aifc, but .aiff or .aif are accepted as well by audio applications supporting the format.

How to convert flac to aiff?!

The first step is to select the files for conversion. Run Audio Transcoder and use the Folder Explorer to browse to the files you want to convert. Then select the file in the File List, drag it to the Drop Zone and drop it there.

Optionally, the program allows you to edit the audio tags of any selected file in the Drop Zone.



Once the files are selected, the next step is to select the output settings.

Select the output settings.

The second step is to select the output settings. To begin, select the folder to save the output file to and choose the action to be executed if the output file already exists - create a new file, overwrite or skip the existing file.



You can also set the program to delete a source file after conversion and preserve the original folder structure, when doing batch conversion.

Finally, you should select the output format and audio quality.



Once the output settings are customized, you go to the final step - conversion.

Convert the audio file(s).

To start the conversion, click Convert. A conversion dialog will appear to show the progress of conversion.



During the conversion, you can change the priority of the process or set an automatic event to be executed when the conversion is over. After the conversion has finished, you can find the files in the output folder you specified.
