MP3 nutzt verlustbehaftete compression — files are small but some audio data is lost forever. WAV preserves full quality (lossless or uncompressed) but files can be 10× larger than MP3.
In der Praxis: Hören auf dem Handy → MP3 is fine. Podcast bearbeiten in Audacity or mixing in FL Studio → work with WAV or FLAC.
Wann MP3 → WAV konvertieren
When a platform or app requires a lossless format for further editing.
When you plan multiple cuts, effects, and mastering — every operation on MP3 degrades quality.
Note: MP3 → WAV won't recover lost quality but stops further degradation during editing.
Wann WAV → MP3 konvertieren
Sending a recording by email or chat — smaller file = faster transfer.
Publishing a podcast or music for listening, not editing.
Saving disk space in a large audio library.
