ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec) is a lossless audio format developed by Apple, commonly using the .m4a file extension. It is widely used in the Apple ecosystem and provides lossless compression, ensuring that audio files retain all their details without any loss in quality. ALAC is suitable for music production, recording, and audio editing.
How to open and play an ALAC file?
ALAC files can be opened and played using various tools. The most popular choices include [iTunes](https://www.apple.com/itunes/), [QuickTime](https://support.apple.com/downloads/quicktime), [VLC](https://www.videolan.org/), and [Foobar2000](https://www.foobar2000.org/). These tools support not only ALAC files but also a wide range of other audio formats. On Apple devices, you can use the built-in Music app to play ALAC files. On Windows and macOS systems, you can also use built-in media players to play ALAC files. On Linux systems, the `ffplay` command-line tool (part of FFmpeg) can be used to play ALAC files. Regardless of the tool you choose, the process is straightforward: simply double-click the file or right-click and select 'Open'. If you need to convert an ALAC file to another format, FFmpeg provides powerful command-line tools, such as `ffmpeg -i input.m4a output.mp3`.
