Core Audio Format (CAF) is Apple’s professional audio container, introduced with Mac OS X Tiger. Unlike WAV and AIFF, which are effectively capped at 4 GB, a CAF file has no practical size limit, so it can hold hours of high-resolution multichannel audio in one piece. CAF is a container rather than a codec: the audio inside may be uncompressed PCM, Apple Lossless, AAC, or several other encodings.
On macOS, CAF opens in QuickTime Player, the Music app, Logic Pro, and GarageBand without any extra software.
On Windows and Linux, use VLC media player or Audacity, and FFmpeg for batch conversion. Because CAF is largely an Apple-only format, converting it makes sharing far easier — try our CAF to MP3 or CAF to WAV tool.

Waveform Audio (WAV) is the most-popular digital-audio format for uncompressed audio files. WAV is the result of IBM and Windows iterating a Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF). WAV files are much larger than M4A and MP3 files, making them less practical for consumer use on portable players. Their quality, however, does surpass that of M4A and MP3.
The default player for opening WAV files is Windows Media Player. Alternatively, programs such as iTunes, VLC media player, and QuickTime can also be used to open and play WAV files.
Due to a WAV file’s higher, uncompressed quality, they are suitable for importing into music editing, production, and manipulation programs. UltraMixer is a cross-operating-system, software program for deejaying on which WAV files work well. Elmedia Player also supports WAV files.
Initial Release: 1991
