Yes, I educated myself last night with all those Mac file formats (I have Mac phobia). The AIFF as well as WAV are uncompressed formats and from what I see the AIFF play very nice. I have no idea which one is preferable for high-resolution recordings, I probably need to do some experimentations.  The people on web that I was able to see mostly talk about 16 bit AIFF and WAV and about the recording of “songs” – when I read about the “songs” I want to vomit…

It looks like AIFF has 2G limit, at least under Windows (I do not know it is has it under Mac), the WAV file have 64 bit version with unlimited file size.  Anyhow, I need to play with it more.
