Converting Audio File Formats in Apple Music

MP3 files sometimes have timing issues and can skip or hang up, especially on large files. It is always better to use WAV files or AIFF files.

If you have an MP3 file that you want to use for a show, you'll want to convert it to a WAV file.

Here's how you do this using Apple Music:

  1. Launch Apple Music. Make sure your Apple Music import settings are set to wav by going to the Music menu > Preferences > Files > Import Settings > select create using WAV Encoder.
  2. Back in your music list, highlight your desired sound file and go to File > Convert > Create WAV Version.
  3. Drag the new version from your music list to your desktop or show folder.


Note: If you purchased the file online, it may be restricted and you may not be able to change the format.
