This is a free audio codec that enables compression without any losses. The True Audio format was developed by Russian specialists back in 2009. The main advantage of TTA is the highly efficient compression: up to 30% of the total volume. The original quality of the file is fully preserved. The encoding algorithm is implemented in real-time mode. The True Audio data format is simple and open; it is also suitable for lossless compression of multichannel files.

AIFF: a high-quality audio file

This format first emerged in the late 1980s as a development of Apples specialists. It is a standardized format for storing audio data. AIFF files are not compressed, which is why they are larger than mp3. The audio file contains samples and loop information. It is most often used by qualified musicians who need high-quality sound. One minute of audio in the AIFF format requires 10 megabytes of disk space. The encoding process excludes data loss, which makes this format similar to WAV.
