How do I convert a CAF file to RAW online?

Upload your CAF file, select RAW as output, and the converter will automatically decode the audio to uncompressed PCM. You can optionally specify sample rate and bit depth, then click Convert and download the .raw file. The tool handles both uncompressed CAF and compressed codecs like AAC by decoding to raw PCM.

Why should I convert CAF to RAW instead of using WAV?

RAW audio has no header, making it ideal for embedded systems, DSP experiments, or custom firmware where you need direct PCM data. It strips metadata and avoids the overhead of WAV's RIFF header, which is useful for memory-constrained applications. However, RAW is uncompressed, so it is best for scenarios requiring bit-exact PCM streams.

What happens to the audio properties (bit depth, sample rate, channels) during CAF to RAW conversion?

The converter preserves the original bit depth (e.g., 16/24/32-bit), sample rate (e.g., 48 kHz), and channel mapping exactly as stored in the CAF file. If the CAF uses a compressed codec, the output RAW is the decoded PCM resampled to the CAF's declared output settings. No normalization or dithering is applied, so the raw integer samples remain untouched.
