• Reduced File Size: AAC files are more compressed than PCM, saving storage space without compromising audio quality.
• Improved Compatibility: AAC is widely supported across various devices and platforms, ensuring seamless playback.
• Enhanced Audio Quality: AAC offers better sound quality at similar bit rates compared to PCM, making your audio clearer and more enjoyable.
• Efficient Streaming: AAC's compression makes it ideal for streaming, reducing buffering times and data usage.
• Advanced Features: AAC supports features like multi-channel audio and higher sampling rates, providing a richer listening experience.

• Check Sample Rate: Ensure your PCM file's sample rate matches the desired AAC output to avoid quality loss.
• Use High Bitrate: Opt for a higher bitrate during conversion to maintain audio fidelity, especially for music files.
• Normalize Audio: Normalize the audio levels of your PCM file before conversion to achieve consistent volume in the AAC output.
• Trim Silence: Remove any unnecessary silence at the beginning or end of the PCM file to reduce the final AAC file size.
• Test Playback: Always test the converted AAC file on multiple devices to ensure compatibility and quality.
