About the formats
MKV
Matroska Video
MKV (Matroska) is a flexible video container that can hold several audio tracks, subtitles and chapters in one file. It is common in film collections and OBS recordings.
WAV
Waveform Audio File Format
WAV usually stores audio with no compression at all (PCM). It is the lossless source for studio recording and editing, and its files are large.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting MKV to WAV free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no daily limit, no watermark and no queue.
Will the sound quality drop?
WAV is lossless, so the soundtrack is carried over as it is.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works on iPhone, iPad and Android, with no app to install.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no size limit set by us. Files of hundreds of MB convert too; very large files take longer and are handled more comfortably on a computer than on a phone.
