About formats

AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) was developed by Apple in 1988, drawing its structural design from Electronic Arts' IFF standard. As an uncompressed audio container, AIFF stores linear PCM data at full CD quality — typically 16-bit at 44.1 kHz — preserving every detail of the original recording without lossy encoding. The format organizes content into chunks that can also carry metadata such as markers, instrument definitions, and comments. Professional audio engineers on macOS frequently rely on AIFF because it guarantees bit-perfect fidelity through every stage of editing and mastering. One significant advantage is zero generational loss: unlike MP3 or AAC, repeated saves never degrade the signal. Another strength is seamless integration with Apple's professional tools, including Logic Pro and GarageBand, where AIFF serves as a native working format. The container supports multiple sample rates and bit depths up to 32-bit, accommodating high-resolution workflows that exceed CD-quality specifications. For anyone prioritizing lossless integrity over storage efficiency, AIFF remains a dependable choice across the recording industry.

CDDA (Compact Disc Digital Audio), known as the Red Book standard, defines audio stored on music CDs. Jointly developed by Sony and Philips and published in 1980, it established parameters that shaped digital audio for decades: 16-bit linear PCM at 44.1 kHz stereo, yielding 1,411.2 kbps uncompressed. Each disc holds up to 80 minutes organized into tracks with index points, sub-channel data for text display, and error correction codes (CIRC) ensuring reliable playback despite minor scratches. When audio is ripped from a CD, the resulting stream is often saved with the .cdda extension as raw PCM before conversion. The most obvious advantage is uncompressed, lossless nature — what reaches your ears is mathematically identical to the studio master at the specified resolution. Robust error correction provides excellent resilience, maintaining audio integrity even when disc surfaces suffer moderate wear. Having sold billions of units since the first commercial release in 1982, CDDA established baseline quality expectations for digital music and remains the reference against which compressed codecs are measured.
