# OGG to M4A Converter Convert OGG Vorbis audio files to M4A (MPEG-4 Audio) format with quality and channel controls > Canonical page: https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/ogg-to-m4a - **Category:** Media - **Keywords:** ogg, vorbis, m4a, audio, converter, transcode, mpeg4 ## Overview The OGG to M4A Converter allows you to easily transcode OGG Vorbis audio files into the widely compatible M4A (MPEG-4 Audio) format. With customizable options for bitrate, sample rate, and audio channels, you can optimize your audio files for Apple devices and modern media players while preserving metadata tags. ## Inputs - **Audio File** (file): Upload an OGG file to convert to M4A - **Bitrate (kbps)** (select): Choose target bitrate for M4A output - **Sample Rate** (select): Output sample rate - **Audio Channels** (select): Select output channel count - **Keep Metadata (when available)** (checkbox): Preserve title/artist tags when possible ## When to use - When you need to play OGG audio files on Apple devices like iPhones, iPads, or Macs that do not natively support the OGG Vorbis format. - When you want to compress OGG files into highly efficient M4A files with specific bitrate and channel configurations. - When preparing audio tracks for integration into iTunes, Apple Music, or other AAC-preferred media libraries. ## How it works - Upload your OGG Vorbis audio file (up to 50MB) using the file selector. - Configure your output preferences, including target bitrate, sample rate, audio channels, and whether to preserve metadata tags. - Click the convert button to process the file and download your newly generated M4A audio file. ## Use cases - Converting game audio assets stored in OGG format to M4A for compatibility with iOS mobile applications. - Transcoding open-source OGG music tracks to M4A to import them seamlessly into an iTunes or Apple Music library. - Downmixing stereo OGG voice recordings to mono M4A at a lower bitrate to save storage space on mobile devices. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the maximum file size supported for conversion? You can upload OGG files up to 50 MB (52,428,800 bytes) in size. ### Will the converter preserve my audio tags and metadata?
