How to convert AMR to FLAC:
1. Click the "Choose Files" button to select multiple files from your local device, or click the "URL" button to choose an online file. The source file can also be video format. Video and audio file size can be up to 200M. You can use the file analyzer to get the source audio's detailed information such as track name, genre, bitrate, and sampling rate.
2. Set the target audio format, bitrate, and sample rate. The target audio format can be WAV, WMA, MP3, OGG, AAC, AU, FLAC, M4A, MKA, AIFF, OPUS, or RA.
3. Click the "Convert Now!" button to start batch conversion. It will automatically retry conversion on another server if one fails; please be patient while converting. The output files will be listed in the "Conversion Results" section. Click the icon to show the file QR code or save the file to cloud storage services such as Google Drive or Dropbox.

| Name | AMR | FLAC |
| Full name | Adaptive Multi-Rate | Free Lossless Audio Codec |

| Introduction | The Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR or AMR-NB or GSM-AMR) audio codec is an audio compression format optimized for speech coding. AMR was adopted as the standard speech codec by 3GPP in October 1999 and is now widely used in GSM and UMTS. | FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an audio coding format for lossless compression of digital audio, and is also the name of the reference codec implementation. Digital audio compressed by FLAC's algorithm can typically be reduced to 50-60% of its original size and decompress to an identical copy of the original audio data. |
| Technical details | AMR speech codec consists of a multi-rate narrowband speech codec that encodes narrowband (200-3400 Hz) signals at variable bit rates ranging from 4.75 to 12.2 kbit/s with toll quality speech starting at 7.4 kbit/s. Sampling frequency 8 kHz/13-bit (160 samples for 20 ms frames), filtered to 200-3400 Hz. | The technical strengths of FLAC compared to other lossless formats lie in its ability to be streamed and decoded quickly, independent of compression level. In a comparison of compressed audio formats, FFmpeg's FLAC implementation was noted to have the fastest and most efficient embedded decoder of any modern lossless audio format. |
