  • First of all, I love your audio converter. I have used it to successfully convert most of my FLAC collection to ALAC in order for it to be playable on my Ipod. It's all quite intuitive, I love it! Rory
  • I just wanted to thank you for this software's existence - I used to use QuickTime 7 (and it was clunky!) to convert audio, but when Apple made it slightly harder to get QuickTime Pro I sought out MediaHuman Audio Converter, and have never looked back. It's saved me plenty of times. Thanks! Josh W.
  • That is a truly great product, much better than Switch, which I thought too expensive to pay for. I know it is freeware, but couldn't resist a small donation when I saw how beautifully written the software was. Thank you. Jim S.

  • The best WMA to MP3 converter, period. I have more than 10Gb of WMA files to convert to MP3. Your software is just making it a breeze. Having struggled with all the major 'recommended' freewares available, I can say without a doubt that yours is just the best for the task. Many thanks from France. Arnaud
  • Hi Folks, I just wanted to let you know that your Audioconverter is truly excellent. The GUI is simple and selfexplaining, very clever! Also thanks for implmenting CBR at 320kbps. I converted AIFF files to mp3 and they sound much better than converted with my old iTunes. The mp3s sound loud, clear, fresh and have a punchy bass. Heavy recommendation guaranteed :-) Ernst M.
  • I just want to congratulate you for the MediaHuman Audio Converter. Variety of choices for audio quality, file extension type and multiple cpu core choice. And checkbox for adding to iTunes while converting. Genius. You saved me from hours of waiting. Well done. Maximos H.
  • I have to say that this converter, is by far THEE best i have ever used. i had to use this in exchange for the built in iTunes converter because it would chop songs into 0:23 seconds after they were converted and that obviously wasn't the whole song. your converter has done its justice to the shitty apple conversion and hence, why i'm writing this review because it's so damn fast AND it also converts as many files as needed with no ads or requiring a license! it's truly and awesome freeware program!! :) Nic

  • Downloaded this morning to convert a batch of files, 680+, from WMA to MP3. As a bit of background I started developing software over 40 years ago, which makes me rather picky about how software works. Just wanted to let you know that I am more than pleasantly surprised, this is a great piece of software. I had spent about 3 hours trying other products prior to finding yours, and by far yours is the most full featured and easy to use. Just wanted to drop you a 'thank you', I was looking for a place to leave a review for you, please let me know if there is a place you would like me to leave one. Thanks! Bill D.
  • MediaHuman Audio Converter is brilliant. It's so good to find really well developed software - so intuitive and therefore a pleasure to use. I've been looking at audio converters for a while now and not found anything that comes even close to your great product. I've been involved in software development all my life and rarely see software that gets the user's experience 'just right' Audio Converter does exactly that. Congratulations. John

Part 3. FAQs of FLAC to ALAC

1. FLAC VS. ALAC, which one is better?

ALAC, Apple Lossless, also known as Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC), or Apple Lossless Encoder (ALE), is the lossless audio codec developed by Apple.

FLAC, Free Lossless Audio codec, is the lossless audio coding formats for digital audio. It is the open format with the royalty-free licensing with metadata tagging, album cover art, etc.

As the quality, they are both lossless quality.

As for the compatibility, FLAC can be played in most players like the car, home stereo, while ALAC is only compatible with Apple iTunes and iOS devices.

As for the file size, though both are lossless, ALAC’s compression isn't quite as efficient as FLAC’s, so your ALAC file may be a bit bigger than the same FLAC file.

Let’s be clear about something here, FLAC is the winner, but the only weakness is FLAC is not compatible with iTunes or iPhone 7 before running in iOS 11.

2. Can iTunes or VLC convert FLAC?

No.

Though iTunes can encode the songs to AAC, AIFF, ALAC, MP3, and WAV, it does not support converting FLAC files.

VLC is another universal media player and converter. However, it cannot convert FLAC to ALAC. It only lets you convert FLAC to MP3, AAC, AC-3, and OGG.

3. Will it lose quality after converting FLAC to ALAC?

No.

Generally speaking, both FLAC and ALAC are the lossless audio quality, so it will lose quality after converting from FLAC to ALAC or ALAC to FLAC. However, if you made some settings like sample rate, bitrate, etc., while converting between the two formats, you may find the quality will be changed.

4. Is M4A the same as ALAC?

Converting Flac To Alac

No.

.m4a is the file extension of ALAC. Also, .m4a is the file extension of ACC (Advanced Audio Coding) file that is used by Apple.

AAC, similar to MP3 is the loss audio format and a bit more efficient than MP3. AAC is always used in iTunes Store with encryption or not, while ALAC does not use any DRM scheme; but it is feasible that DRM could be applied to ALAC for its MP4 container.

Though the file extension of them is identical, they use the different codec and ALAC is the lossless quality without losing any detail.

5. Should I convert all the FLAC files to ALAC for playing on iPhone or iPod?

No, you should not. More modern devices such as the iPhone 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XR, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, iPad, etc., running iOS11.
