Hello All,

WAV is not a format, wav is a conteiner as Fred said, what we call wav is
in fact PCM.
WAV files can carry almost any format, such as ADPCM flavors, MP3, MP2,
GSM, etc.

Thank of wav being a box that you can fill with any format depending on
wich codec you use.


Regards,

Fernando Della Torre
