AIFF to SNDR conversion is the process of converting audio data stored in the Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF), an uncompressed PCM-based format commonly used on macOS and professional audio workflows, into the SNDR format. This conversion repackages or transcodes the raw audio samples and metadata into the SNDR container/codec so the resulting files can be played or processed by tools that require the SNDR format.
