1Upload the AIFF audio files whose level you want to change.
2Move the volume slider: above 100% makes the file louder, below 100% makes it quieter.
3Run it; the whole file is raised or lowered by the same amount, so a large boost can make loud passages clip.
4Download the adjusted AIFF file.
Adjust AIFF Volume FAQ
Does the source format matter?
+
It does. AIFF is Apple's uncompressed PCM format — the Mac-side equivalent of WAV, same size, same fidelity. That decides whether a gain change is an exact edit of the samples or has to go through a re-encode.
Should I use volume or normalisation?
+
Use volume when you know exactly how much louder or quieter you want it. Use normalisation when you want a set of files to end up at the same perceived loudness — that is a measurement problem, not a fixed gain, and applying one when you meant the other is the usual mistake.
Can I adjust a whole batch to the same gain?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Will Adjust AIFF Volume lower the quality of my AIFF audio files?
+
No. Lossless audio is edited sample-exactly, so what comes back decodes bit-identically to what you would get doing the same edit in a desktop editor. You can repeat the cycle as many times as you like without accumulating any loss at all.
Are bit depth and sample rate preserved?
+
Yes, unless you change them deliberately. A 24-bit/96 kHz source stays 24-bit/96 kHz — nothing is silently downsampled to 16/44.1, which is the failure mode that makes a master unusable.
Does Adjust AIFF Volume cost anything?
+
No. Adjust AIFF Volume is free without an account, and nothing is added to the audio. The upload and the result are deleted automatically about 24 hours after the job, which leaves time to download the result.
What can I upload to Adjust AIFF Volume?
+
WAV, FLAC and AIFF, at any bit depth and sample rate up to and including 24-bit/192 kHz. Lossy files work in the same batch if you are mixing sources.
Why does a PDF site host Adjust AIFF Volume?
+
PDF.to exists because PDF is where documents go to be shared and the worst place to keep them while they are still being worked on, so nearly every job here is about getting something into or out of that state deliberately. A document rarely arrives in the state it needs to leave in: it is too big, in the wrong order, locked, or a scan with no text in it. Adjust AIFF Volume sits on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because those jobs turn up together.
What should I do with the result once Adjust AIFF Volume is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves documents between PDF, Word, images, plain text and eBook formats in either direction, so whatever comes out of a tool here has somewhere to go next without a second upload. Running that after Adjust AIFF Volume rather than before keeps the document structure intact through the step that is most likely to flatten it.
Is Adjust AIFF Volume here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same document toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a PDF site adds is a view on when a file should stay a document and when it genuinely wants to become something else, which is the decision most tools quietly make for you. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: a PDF is an object graph, not a page image, so text stays selectable and vectors stay sharp no matter what happens to the raster content inside it.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account is needed. Uploads and results are kept for about 24 hours, which leaves time to download the result, and are then deleted automatically; nobody reads, lists or indexes them. Several files in one job need a paid plan.
