Settings

Set the number of audio channels. This setting is most useful when downmixing channels (e.g., from 5.1 to stereo).
Set the sample rate of the audio. Music with a full spectrum (20 Hz — 20 kHz) requires values not lower than 44.1 kHz to achieve transparency. More info can be found on the wiki.
Adjust the audio volume by selecting a number of decibels. For example, -10 dB decreases the volume by 10 decibels.

wma

WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a family of proprietary audio codecs developed by Microsoft and first released in 1999 as part of the Windows Media framework. Created to compete with MP3 and AAC, WMA Standard uses perceptual coding to deliver what Microsoft claimed was near-CD quality at bitrates as low as 64 kbps — roughly half the data rate MP3 typically needed for comparable results. The codec family grew to include WMA Professional for surround sound and high-resolution audio, WMA Lossless for bit-perfect archival compression, and WMA Voice optimized for spoken content at very low bitrates. Deep integration with Windows, Windows Media Player, and the Zune ecosystem gave WMA a strong distribution advantage throughout the 2000s, and digital rights management (DRM) support made it attractive to online music stores of that era. Encoding and decoding are handled natively by Windows, requiring no third-party software for playback on any Windows machine. Cross-platform support has improved through libraries like FFmpeg and GStreamer, though WMA remains less universally compatible than MP3 or AAC on non-Microsoft devices. The format still appears in legacy media libraries, though newer codecs have largely taken its place for streaming and portable use.

tta

TTA (True Audio) is a real-time lossless audio compression codec developed by Aleksander Djourik, with its origins tracing back to the early 2000s. The format reconstructs the original PCM stream bit-for-bit upon decoding, guaranteeing that no sonic detail is lost during storage or transfer. TTA handles standard CD-quality audio as well as high-resolution content up to 32-bit integer samples, making it suitable for everyday listening and professional archiving alike. Processing speed is one of TTA's defining strengths — the codec achieves fast encoding and decoding without heavy CPU demands, keeping it lightweight even on older hardware. The file structure supports ID3v1, ID3v2, and APEv2 metadata tags, so track information and album art travel with the audio. Hardware support appeared in several portable players, giving TTA a practical edge over some competing lossless formats. The open-source reference implementation ships under the GNU GPL, encouraging community adoption and third-party integrations. While newer codecs like FLAC have captured a larger share of the lossless audio landscape, TTA continues to serve users who value its simplicity and transparent compression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert WMA to TTA?

TTA offers fast lossless compression that locks in whatever quality your WMA files contain, preventing any further degradation. It is ideal for archiving lossy WMA collections.

What media players support TTA playback?

foobar2000, VLC, Winamp with the TTA plugin, and Rockbox firmware for portable players all handle True Audio. Several Linux media players also support it natively.

How does TTA compare to FLAC as a lossless format?

Both compress without losing data, but TTA encodes noticeably faster. FLAC wins on ecosystem support with more hardware and software compatibility across consumer devices.

Can converting to TTA recover quality lost in WMA compression?

No — TTA preserves exactly what the WMA file contains. Lossy data discarded during WMA encoding is gone permanently, but TTA prevents any additional loss going forward.

Is it possible to batch convert my entire WMA library to TTA?

Absolutely — upload all your WMA files at once and convertio.co encodes each to True Audio simultaneously, making it practical to archive even large music collections quickly.
