Assuming no other conversions at the same time (e.g. sample rate or sample depth), none. .wav is the extension traditionally used for uncompressed audio, which is a file format of convention only. .flac and .ape are both lossless formats, which means you can convert from .wav to one of them and back and get the *exact* same data. The same way you can gzip and then gunzip a file and get the *exact* same data. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
