Overview

Raw Audio is a class of file formats, mostly binary, for storing uncompressed audio. It is not a well-defined format and usually lacks any header information. The audio is often stored in a LPCM coded raw form with various bit depth, byte order, sample rate and number of channels. Multiple channels can be stored in an interleaved or planar (one channel at a time) way.

Software

RAW Audio can be decoded with the following applications:

  • Audacity (Import -> Raw Data...)
  • Steinberg WaveLab (Open -> Import special Audio file...)
