It is therefore a good idea to use the "Name" and "Description" fields wisely to define the format that you are adding. You might choose to have 3 MP3 formats all with differing quality settings. The Name and Description fields are there for your benefit to describe the format that you are adding. Click the "Edit" button to add new file formats. The file format dropdown box can be set to have other formats as well. "Gnac" can convert to multiple formats and so if you need to convert from WAV to MP3 you can.
Most people probably download more music than they buy on physical disks and so it is more likely that they want to convert the other way around now.
Converting WAV to MP3 using gnac Converting from WAV to MP3 used to be a common task as people used to buy CDs and then convert them for use on their computers and MP3 players. The conversion takes a matter of seconds to complete. Clicking "Convert" either on the toolbar or in the bottom right corner of the window starts the process. By default WAV is selected which in this case is exactly what is required. There is a dropdown in the bottom left corner which shows what the file will be converted to. Got it completely wrong? Simply clear the list by clicking the "Clear files" icon and start again. If you add files by accident you can remove them by clicking the "Remove files" icon.

In this article I am going to show you the method I used to convert the files and then I am going to show you the easy way. I had fifteen minutes before we needed to leave and I realised that I had to burn the songs onto a CD and what is more I needed to convert them from MP3 to a format a standard CD player can play such as WAV. On Saturday mornings I take my daughter swimming and I felt the urge to subject her to an eclectic mix of "Chas and Dave", "Brian Setzer", "Louis Jordan" and "Cab Calloway". I downloaded the files straight to MP3 as opposed to buying the CDs and waiting for them to be delivered.

Last week I was given an Amazon gift card and so I used some of the money to update my music collection. So the reason I am writing this guide is that I had to convert some audio files at the weekend really quickly (more of a want than a need really). Straight out of left field and completely unrelated to recent content on this blog is an article showing how to convert audio files from one format to another including from MP3 to WAV and WAV to MP3.
