TTA Converter
FileFlip converts TTA files into 11 other formats entirely inside your browser, using FFmpeg and WebCodecs compiled to WebAssembly. The TTA file is never uploaded to a server: it is read off your disk, converted on your own machine, and saved back by the browser. There is no file-size limit and no account to create.
How do I convert a TTA file?#
- Drop your TTA file onto the converter at the top of this page, or click it to pick one from your computer.
- Choose the format you want out of it. FileFlip downloads the engine that conversion needs, once, and your browser caches it.
- Conversion starts the moment you pick the format, and the result is yours to download. The work happens in this tab, so nothing is uploaded and nothing is queued.
Is it safe to convert TTA files online?#
Yes, because nothing is uploaded. FileFlip converts TTA files inside the browser tab you already have open, using WebAssembly builds of the same engines a desktop converter would install. Your file is read from your own disk into the page's memory, and no request carrying it is ever made.
You do not have to take that on trust. Open your browser's network panel, run a conversion, and you will see the engine come down and your file go nowhere. There is no upload, no server-side copy, no retention window, and no account tied to what you converted.
How FileFlip works lists every engine, its version and its download size, and shows how to check for yourself that nothing leaves your machine.

What is a TTA file?#
A TTA file holds audio compressed with True Audio, a lossless codec built by Aleksander Djuric around real-time hardware encoding, so it decodes with very little CPU overhead compared to other lossless formats.
There is little reason to choose TTA over FLAC for a new lossless rip today; it mainly persists in existing archives and on older hardware players that already support it.
Convert TTA to FLAC for playback on current phones, players, and software, since FLAC covers the same lossless ground with far wider support.
The TTA file format reference covers the specification, the programs that open one, and what each conversion keeps or drops.
TTA questions people ask#
What creates a TTA file?
TTA files come from ripping or archiving software that specifically chose the True Audio codec, most often foobar2000 or other Windows-based lossless ripping tools, and from a handful of portable media players that supported TTA natively before FLAC decoding became cheap enough for their hardware.
What still plays TTA files?
foobar2000 plays TTA natively on Windows, and VLC decodes it on any platform. Support outside those tools is thin; most phones and streaming apps have never supported the format.
Should I convert TTA to FLAC?
Convert TTA to FLAC when the file needs to play on a device or app that does not recognize True Audio, which in practice is most modern software. Both are lossless codecs, so the converted file reproduces the exact original audio with nothing discarded.
