# Convert WAV to MP3

> Convert large WAV recordings to MP3 and save around 90 percent of the space. Also works with M4A, OGG and FLAC. Free, and the files stay with you.

One minute of CD-quality WAV takes about 10 MB, as a 128 kbps MP3 about 1 MB. For rehearsal recordings, dictation or podcasts that is plenty.

## FAQ

### Can you hear the difference?

With speech practically never, with music only on good headphones in a direct comparison. If you plan to mix the recording later, keep the WAV anyway.
