What to check after conversion
Lossy conversion can reduce sound quality; increasing the file size cannot restore information lost in the source.
Understand the file formats
Input: WAV
WAV commonly stores high-bitrate or uncompressed audio samples.
WAV output may be larger than compressed audio formats.
Result: FLAC
FLAC is a lossless audio compression format.
Lossy source audio stays lossy in quality even if saved into FLAC.
