Does FLAC lose quality?

No. FLAC is lossless. The sound is bit-for-bit identical to your WAV, in a smaller file.

What if I need the original back?

You can decode the FLAC back to WAV anytime with any FLAC-capable player or converter. Nothing is discarded.

How to convert a WAV to FLAC

When this helps

You want to halve the size of uncompressed recordings without losing anything.
