How do I convert a CAF file to UL format with LetsConvert?

Upload your CAF file to the converter, select UL (μ-law, G.711) as the output format, choose your desired sample rate (e.g., 8 kHz for telephony), and click 'Convert'. Once the re-encoding is complete, download the resulting .ul file. The tool handles the CAF container parsing and outputs a raw μ-law stream ready for telephony systems.

Why would I need to convert CAF to UL?

CAF is Apple's Core Audio Format used for high-quality audio on macOS/iOS, while UL (μ-law) is a G.711 compressed voice codec standard in telecommunications. Converting to UL makes audio compatible with PBX systems, IVR scripts, and VoIP platforms, and reduces file size by up to 95% (from linear PCM) because μ-law uses 8-bit companding instead of 16-bit or 24-bit PCM.

What happens to audio quality and sample rate when converting CAF to UL?

The conversion to μ-law encodes audio as 8-bit companded samples, which is optimized for human speech and introduces a higher noise floor compared to linear PCM. By default, the converter resamples to an 8 kHz mono stream (the G.711 standard), but you can choose 16 kHz or 44.1 kHz if needed. Multi-channel CAF files are downmixed to mono, and metadata like album art or track info is discarded because the UL format is a raw codec stream without container support.
