Why Convert WAV to WMA?

Converting WAV to WMA is a common task whenever a file has to work somewhere that expects the other format. WAV is Microsoft's uncompressed audio format and the standard for professional audio production. WMA is the Windows Media Audio format that Microsoft introduced as an alternative to MP3. This converter makes the switch locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Common use cases

  • You have a WAV file and need it in WMA format.
  • The target software or platform requires WMA but your file is in WAV.
  • Typical use of WMA: Making old Windows music libraries playable on phones.
  • You want to reduce file size or improve compatibility without using desktop software.
Keep in mind: Phones, browsers and most streaming devices cannot play WMA natively, and the format is considered obsolete.
