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.

gsrt

GSRT is a purpose-built ringtone format developed by Grandstream Networks for its line of IP phones and VoIP endpoint devices. Each file begins with a fixed-size header identifying sample rate (typically 8 kHz or 16 kHz), bit depth, and payload length, followed by PCM or mu-law encoded audio data optimized for the small speakers found in desk phones. The design prioritizes minimal decode complexity — Grandstream handsets run on embedded processors with limited memory, so the format avoids transform stages or complex bitstream parsing. Ringtones are usually provisioned through a web management interface or a centralized configuration server, letting IT administrators push branded audio to an entire fleet of phones at once. Although GSRT occupies a narrow niche within enterprise VoIP telephony, its straightforward binary layout means conversion tools can map the payload directly to WAV with minimal effort. Key advantages include rock-solid playback reliability on Grandstream hardware, negligible latency from file read to speaker output, and seamless integration with the provisioning ecosystem for company-wide ringtone deployment.

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

What is TTA?

TTA (True Audio) is a lossless codec with real-time decoding support, compatible with some hardware audio players.

Why use TTA for a ringtone?

TTA provides lossless archival of the decoded GSRT audio while being supported by hardware players that FLAC may not reach.

What plays TTA files?

foobar2000, VLC, and Rockbox-compatible portable players support TTA playback natively.

Is TTA better than FLAC?

Both are lossless. TTA sometimes encodes faster and has wider hardware player support, while FLAC has broader software compatibility.

Is conversion secure?

GSRT uploads are deleted after processing. TTA results are purged from servers within 24 hours.
