Description | 🔵 CAF (Core Audio Format) is a digital audio format developed by Apple Inc. It is designed to overcome the limitations of other audio formats, such as WAV and AIFF, by providing better support for compressed audio and multichannel audio. CAF files can store high-quality audio with sample rates up to 192 kHz, bit depths up to 32 bits, and up to 64 channels. |
Technical details | 🔵 The CAF format supports both lossless and lossy compression techniques. It also supports various audio codecs, including AAC, Apple Lossless, and MP3. The format also includes support for metadata, allowing users to add information such as track title, artist name, and album artwork to the audio file. CAF files are typically used in professional audio applications, such as music production and sound design, due to their high quality and flexibility. They can be played on Mac computers using the QuickTime Player or on iOS devices using the built-in media player. Additionally, CAF files can be converted to other audio formats using various software tools. |

Description | 🔵 A proprietary format with lossy compression, which have been created as an alternative for MP3 with a higher quality of coding. Overtones out of human perception are being removed. AAC is two times less than MP3, which means 1/10 of CD digital data. The format has been widely used since 1997 as the seventh release of the MPEG-2 family. As hardware players supply it, the format is highly demanded by music fans. It has been widely spread in Apple production and is being used by default in iTunes. |
Technical details | 🔵 The format conception is similar to MP3, but it is more advanced. Being able to execute larger compression, it is represented as a separate segment of MPEG-4 standard used to create compact audio files. AAC is highly efficient with variable and continuous bitrate, with a sampling frequency of 8-96 kHz. The current version complies with the standard of ISO/IEC 14496-3. Compression is performed based on an auditory masking effect that provides data reduction with no deterioration for sound quality. |
