About AIFF to MP3 Conversion
Convert AIFF and AIF files to MP3 online for free. AIFF is Apple's uncompressed audio format, used by GarageBand, Logic and Mac CD rips. It's about 10 MB a minute; an MP3 is 1 to 2.5 MB a minute and plays everywhere.
When you might convert AIFF to MP3
- GarageBand and Logic exports. Mac music apps export AIFF. Convert a mix to MP3 to send or upload it.
- Sharing and email. AIFF files are too large for most messages and attachments. MP3 is a fraction of the size.
- Windows and Android. Some Windows and Android players don't open AIFF. MP3 works on all of them.
- Sample libraries. Many Mac sample packs come as AIFF. Convert the ones you want to use in an app that wants MP3.
AIFF is lossless, so pick 320 kbps if you want the MP3 to stay as close as possible to the original. Tested with standard 16-bit AIFF; compressed AIFF-C hasn't been tested yet.
Why SnipSound
- 100% browser-based. Many online converters upload your file to a server first. This one doesn't — your AIFF stays on your device.
- No cap imposed by us. Large files stream in pieces rather than loading, so memory is not the ceiling it is in most browser tools.
- No sign-up, no ads, no watermarks.
- Multiple output formats. Switch the dropdown to export as WAV, OGG, FLAC, AAC, or M4A instead of MP3.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert AIFF to MP3 online?▼
Drop your AIFF file onto the page and click Convert. The MP3 downloads to your device. Everything runs in your browser and your files never leave your device.
Is my file uploaded?▼
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your AIFF file never leaves your device.
Why is the first conversion slower?▼
FFmpeg loads on first use (a WebAssembly download of about 25 MB). Conversions after that in the same session are fast.
Can I convert to a format other than MP3?▼
Yes. The output dropdown also offers WAV, OGG, FLAC, AAC and M4A.
Is AIF the same as AIFF?▼
Yes. .aif and .aiff are two extensions for the same Apple audio format; both convert the same way.
Will converting AIFF to MP3 lose quality?▼
A little, because MP3 is compressed. At 320 kbps the difference is very hard to hear; at 128 kbps the file is smaller and the loss is easier to notice.
