Convert WAV to OGG
Encode a WAV as OGG Vorbis, the open, royalty-free format used across games and open-source software. It runs in your browser, so your file is never uploaded.
Why convert WAV to OGG?
OGG holds Vorbis audio in an open, royalty-free container, which is why it shows up everywhere in game development and open-source tooling. Unity and Godot both import OGG natively, so it is a natural pick for background music, loops, and sound effects you want small. Linux audio apps and open projects tend to prefer it too. Convert your WAV assets to OGG when you are packaging audio for a game engine or an open-source app and want compact files that stay license-clean.
Quality and file size
OGG uses the libvorbis encoder, so this is a lossless to lossy step: some data is discarded to shrink the file. Vorbis is efficient and competitive with or better than MP3 at the same bitrate, so it holds detail well while keeping game builds light. Where it falls short is consumer hardware and Apple devices, which support OGG far less reliably than MP3 or M4A, so it is a poor pick for sharing to phones and car stereos. Keep your original WAV as the source, since the detail dropped during encoding cannot be recovered from the OGG.
WAV to OGG: common questions
Is OGG good for game audio?
Yes. Unity and Godot support OGG Vorbis natively, and its open, royalty-free format keeps files small without licensing concerns, which makes it a common default for game music and effects.
Does converting to OGG reduce quality?
Yes, OGG Vorbis is lossy, so some data is dropped to shrink the file. At higher bitrates it sounds very good and often edges out MP3 at the same setting.
Is my WAV uploaded to a server?
No. The whole conversion runs in your browser with FFmpeg on WebAssembly, so the WAV never leaves your device and we never see or store it.
Will OGG play on phones and car stereos?
Not always. OGG has weaker support on consumer hardware and Apple devices, so for general sharing MP3 or M4A is safer. Use OGG mainly for games and open-source software.
