Lossless audio compression preserves all original data, resulting in no quality loss, while lossy compression discards some data to achieve smaller file sizes, potentially leading to a noticeable degradation in audio quality. 


Examples of Lossless = .WAV, .AIFF .ALAC

Example of Lossy = .MP3 and .AAC

Normalization adjusts the overall Volume to a target level.

Compression reduces the dynamic range by lowering the volume of the loudest parts, making the audio sound more consistent and potentially louder overall!

WITNESS GREATNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
