Patrick,

I've never heard of a 256 kbps wav file. Wav is a PCM lossless format, and
is thus always has a bitrate = sampling frequency * bit depth * channels.
For CD quality (44.1 kHz, 16-bit, stereo) this works out to 1411.2 kbps. I
know of no standard combination of the previously mentioned parameters that
would lead to a 256 kbps wav file.

That said, 256 kbps is a standard MP3 bitrate. Is this maybe what you mean?
