Encoding WAV recordings as Opus shrinks bulky uncompressed audio into remarkably small files built for voice, podcasts, and streaming. Because the source is lossless, Opus gets its best-case input and stays clean even at aggressive bitrates.

Why convert WAV to OPUS?
- Publish interview and podcast audio at 48-64 kbps, where Opus keeps speech crisp at a fraction of MP3's size.
- Prepare clips for Discord soundboards, Mumble servers, and VoIP systems that run on Opus natively.
- Slash bandwidth for self-hosted audio — a one-hour WAV lecture of roughly 600 MB becomes about 25 MB at 56 kbps.
Tip: Use 32-64 kbps for speech and 96-128 kbps for music; Opus resamples everything to 48 kHz internally, so feeding it higher sample rates buys nothing.
