How do I convert FLAC files to SOU format?

Open LetsConvert’s FLAC to SOU tool. Drag and drop your FLAC file, ensure output is SOU, adjust any audio parameters (like sample rate or bit depth) to match your target device, then click Convert. Once processed, download the raw SOU file and place it in your project’s audio folder.

Why should I convert from FLAC to SOU instead of keeping FLAC?

FLAC is compressed lossless, which saves space, but many legacy game engines, embedded devices, or custom players only accept uncompressed PCM audio, often stored in .sou files. SOU files are raw PCM, so they require more storage but load instantly without decompression, making them ideal for low-latency applications. Converting ensures compatibility.

Does converting FLAC to SOU preserve audio quality and metadata?

The audio data is preserved bit-for-bit if you keep the same sample rate and bit depth—FLAC is lossless, and SOU stores raw PCM. However, SOU format has no standard metadata container, so tags like artist, album, or cover art are lost. Additionally, if you resample or change bit depth during conversion, that will alter the audio.
