Make M4A Files

M4A is an audio format compressed using the Apple Lossless Encoder (ALE) which also supports lossless compression. Moreover, M4A tracks regularly contain non-protected contents.

The M4A format is the audio-only version of the MP4 format, therefore MP4 creators may also be used to make M4A tracks.

In order to create their own customized M4A audio files, users will need to select and use a specialized app that comes with built-in support for this particular format.

Usually, these applications will convert other audio files to M4A format, after having adjusted the bit rate or the audio channel.
