About the WAV format
WAV — Waveform Audio File Format
WAV is Microsoft's uncompressed audio format and the professional standard for high-quality audio. It stores audio data without any compression, preserving every sample exactly as recorded, making it ideal for studio production and archiving.
Common uses
- Professional music production
- Audio mastering and mixing
- Game audio and sound design
- Archival audio storage
About the GZ format
GZ — Gzip Compressed File
GZ is a single-file compression format based on the DEFLATE algorithm, standardized in RFC 1952. Unlike ZIP or TAR, gzip compresses only a single file. It is ubiquitous on UNIX/Linux systems and is used heavily in HTTP content encoding (gzip compression for web pages), log compression, and as the compression layer in TGZ archives.
Common uses
- Compressing individual files on Linux/macOS
- HTTP content encoding for faster web page delivery
- Log file compression on servers
- Single-file distribution with good compression
