How to convert AIFF to MP3

1

Upload the AIFF

Choose a .aiff, .aif, or .aifc file from your phone or computer.

2

Pick the MP3 quality

192 kbps fits most files. Use 128 for voice or 320 when the source is already high quality.

3

Download the MP3

Save the MP3 when the conversion finishes.

Why convert AIFF to MP3

AIFF stores PCM samples, like WAV, and Apple music software still exports it. The file is large. This page encodes those samples as MP3 so the track fits on a phone or in an upload form.

What this page converts

Logic and GarageBand

An AIFF bounce becomes an MP3 you can send.

Mac recordings

Older Mac audio saved as AIFF converts the same way.

AIFC files

Compressed and uncompressed AIFC containers are accepted when ffmpeg can read them.

Deleted afterward

The upload and the result are removed from the server when the job ends.

Why use this converter

Quality notes

AIFF is uncompressed, so the MP3 is the step that removes detail. 192 or 320 kbps is the useful range. If the AIFF was already a copy of a low-bitrate MP3, the new file cannot sound clearer.

AIFF to MP3 questions

Is AIFF to MP3 free?

Yes. Upload a AIFF and download the MP3 with no account.

Is AIFF the same as WAV?

Both are PCM. AIFF is the Apple container. This page’s job is to make an MP3 from it.

Which extension?

.aiff, .aif, and .aifc are accepted.

Will the file shrink?

Yes. Uncompressed AIFF is large. The MP3 is much smaller.

Are files kept?

No. The AIFF and the MP3 are deleted after processing.

Why did it fail?

The file may be over 80 MB or 60 minutes, protected, or not a real media file. Try another file.
