AC3

AC3 file format

AC3 (Audio Codec 3) is a digital audio compression format developed by Dolby Laboratories, commonly used for surround sound in DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and broadcast media. It is supported by media players like VLC, Windows Media Player, and editing tools such as Audacity and Adobe Audition. The format uses perceptual coding to reduce file size while maintaining high-quality audio, supporting up to 5.1-channel surround sound and offering features like dynamic range compression and metadata for playback customization.

AAC

Advanced Audio Coding

AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a digital audio coding standard designed to provide high-quality audio at lower bitrates compared to MP3, making it a popular format for streaming and storage. It is widely supported by platforms like iTunes, YouTube, and Android devices, and can be created or edited using tools like Audacity, FFmpeg, and Adobe Audition. The format uses advanced compression techniques, such as perceptual noise shaping and temporal noise shaping, to optimize audio quality while maintaining efficient file sizes, and it supports multiple channels for surround sound and metadata for enhanced functionality.
