How to Change the Bitrate of WAV in Pro Tools
In Pro Tools, you change the bitrate of a WAVE (*.wav) file when you “bounce” the working Pro Tools file to disk. In other words, when you convert a Pro Tools audio session file (*.pts) to the WAV format to save the file to media, the “Set Bitrate” dialog box appears as an option. To change the bitrate of a WAV in Pro Tools, re-save the WAV file and adjust the bitrate in the Save options, as desired.
