What is OPUS?

Opus Audio (.opus). Opus is an open, royalty-free codec standardised by the IETF in 2012. It sounds very good at low bitrates for both speech and music, and it is the codec of WebRTC video calls and many voice-message apps.

Common use: Voice messages, calls, streaming, podcasts

Output format

What is ALAC?

Apple Lossless Audio Codec (.alac). ALAC is Apple's lossless codec: like FLAC it decodes to exactly the original audio, at roughly half the size of WAV. Apple released it as open source in 2011; iTunes, Apple Music and iPhones play it natively.

Common use: Lossless music on Apple devices

Questions about OPUS to ALAC

Is converting OPUS to ALAC free?
Yes, one file at a time: the converter on this page runs in your browser, files up to 100 MB, no sign-up. The Filoshi desktop app ($29 once, for Windows) converts many files at once and has no size limit.
Does converting OPUS to ALAC lose quality?
No further loss: ALAC keeps exactly what is decoded from the OPUS file. It cannot bring back detail that OPUS's lossy compression already removed, and the ALAC file is usually larger.
Is my OPUS file uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter on this page runs in your browser with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly; your OPUS file is read and converted on your device and never sent to a server. The desktop app works the same way, offline.
Has OPUS to ALAC been tested?
Yes. OPUS to ALAC is one of the 1,841 conversions that passed Filoshi's automated test matrix on Windows 11.
Can I convert many OPUS files at once?
Yes, in the desktop app. Drop as many OPUS files as you like on the window, pick ALAC once for all of them, and each file shows its own progress. The new files appear next to the originals, which are never changed.
