About W64 Files

A .w64 file is an audio file saved in the Sony Wave64 (W64) format, a professional audio format developed by Sony for use with high-end digital audio applications. W64 files typically store uncompressed, high-quality digital audio similar to standard WAV files but use 64-bit addressing to overcome the 4 GB file size limit of the traditional WAV format. This design makes W64 well-suited for long recordings, multitrack sessions, and high-resolution audio projects.

Sony created the W64 format to support large-scale production workflows where preserving full audio quality and accommodating extended recording times are essential. People are most likely to encounter W64 files in professional recording studios, broadcast environments, film post-production projects, and archival work involving long-form audio. The format has been commonly used with Sony audio software and hardware, including applications such as Sound Forge and other professional editing tools.

Converting W64 Files

You can convert .w64 files to several other formats to improve compatibility:

• Converting to MP3: Creates a widely supported audio file that is easy to share and play on most devices, though it introduces lossy compression that reduces fidelity compared to the original uncompressed recording.
• Converting to AAC: Produces a smaller, efficient file with good sound quality that works well on modern devices, media players, and streaming platforms.
