Opus recordings arrive from chat apps and web calls, but a Mac editing session wants AIFF, not a streaming codec. This free opus to aiff converter decodes an Opus file and rewrites it as an uncompressed AIFF, so voice notes and call recordings can be trimmed and mixed in Logic Pro, GarageBand or another Mac editor. Everything runs in your browser, so your file is never uploaded and no signup is needed. The honest limits: the AIFF output is 16-bit PCM, Opus compression detail does not come back, and if your browser cannot decode Opus at all, the tool shows a plain error instead of a broken file.

Why this opus to aiff converter fits Mac editing

Opus is built for sending. AIFF is built for the Mac timeline.

Brings chat audio into the session

Voice notes and call recordings become ordinary AIFF clips that sit alongside Mac-recorded material.

Edit without extra loss

Once uncompressed, trims, fades and mixes no longer stack another compression round onto Opus audio.

Rate and channels preserved

The decoded sample rate and channel layout are carried into the 16-bit PCM AIFF.

Private by design

Personal voice recordings are converted on your own device and never uploaded.

You get a plain error, not a broken file. Opus decoding works in current Chrome and Firefox; try one of those if your browser fails.

Yes, much larger. Opus is highly compressed for sending, while AIFF stores every sample uncompressed for editing.
