Convert WAVE64 to CAF

Total Audio MP3 Converter converts WAVE64 to CAF as easy as 1-2-3. The software could encode CAF file with different codecs such as PCM 8-bit, PCM 16-bit, PCM 24-bit, PCM 32-bit, IMA ADPCM (4-bit), and GSM. The converter can also combine multiple WAVE64 files to one CAF.

The software is also a powerful audio converter that converts any formats to common audio formats such as OGG, CAF, AMR, ALAC (Apple Lossless), AIFF, MKA, AAC, M4R (iPhone ringtone), FLAC, MP3, etc. It could convert M4V to MP4 (audio track), OGM to MP2, MO3 to MP3, MP3 to CAF, VOB to M4B (MPEG-4 audiobook), MO3 to AAC, OGA to WMA, M4B to AMR, and so on.

Total Audio MP3 Converter supports batch conversion and, is full compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Vista and Windows 7.

WAVE64 to CAF Software is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, 2008, 2003, and 2000

What is WAVE64?
The RIFF/WAVE file format as defined by Microsoft allows to store up to 4 GB of audio data in a single file. This is sufficient to hold about 6h 45min of uncompressed PCM coded stereo 16-bit audio signals with a sample rate of 44.1 kHz. However, for multi channel audio (e.g. 5.1 surround), high-definition formats (24 bits, 96 or 192 kHz sample rate) or some special applications in production and broadcasting, the file size limit of 4 GB is rather inconvenient, since long recordings need to be split into several files. The file size limit of 4 GB exists, because all size fields in the RIFF/WAVE format have a size of 32 bits, resulting in a maximum size of 2^32 = 4294967296 bytes.

The Sony Wave64 file format is defined as a true 64 bit file format that allows to overcome the limitations of the RIFF/WAVE format. The file format was originally defined by Sonic Foundry. In Summer 2003, Sony Pictures Digital acquired Sonic Foundry's Desktop Software assets. Since then, the new format is officially promoted as Sony Pictures Digital Wave 64. Companies are encouraged to support this format and no royalties have to be paid to use it.

The Sony Wave64 file format is very similar to the well known RIFF/WAVE format. Therefore, existing software implementations of RIFF/WAVE file filters are likely to be extendable to support the Sony Wave64 file format with little programming effort. Because of the similarities to the RIFF/WAVE format, only the differences between these formats are described. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the original format as defined by Microsoft.

What is CAF?
Apple's Core Audio Format is a flexible, state-of-the-art file format for storing and manipulating digital audio data. It is fully supported by Core Audio APIs on Mac OS X v10.4 and later and on Mac OS X v10.3 with QuickTime 7 or later. CAF provides high performance and flexibility, and is scalable to future ultra-high resolution audio recording, editing, and playback.

Core Audio Format is designed to overcome limitations of older digital audio formats, including AIFF and WAV. Just like the QuickTime .mov container, a .caf container can contain many different audio formats, metadata tracks, and much more data. Not limited to a 4 GB file size like older digital audio formats, a single .caf file can theoretically save hundreds of years of recorded audio due to its use of 64-bit file offsets.

CAF files have several advantages over other standard audio file formats: unrestricted file size, safe and efficient recording, supports for many data formats, supports for many types of auxiliary data, and supports for data dependencies.
