Convert AMR to 3GA

Understanding AMR and 3GA file formats

AMR (Adaptive Multi-Rate) is an audio format primarily used for speech coding. It is commonly used in mobile devices for voice recordings and is known for its efficient compression, which makes it ideal for storing voice data.

3GA is a file format used to store audio data specifically for 3G mobile phones. It is a variant of the 3GP format, which is used for multimedia files. 3GA files typically contain audio streams encoded in AMR, AAC, or other audio codecs.

How to convert AMR to 3GA

Converting AMR files to 3GA can be useful if you need to ensure compatibility with certain mobile devices or applications that prefer the 3GA format. The conversion process involves re-encoding the audio data from AMR to a format compatible with 3GA.
