கேள்வி: ஒலிக்கோப்பு வடிவம் குறித்து விரிவாக சொல்லுங்கள்.
பதில்: ஒலிக்கோப்பு வடிவம் (Audio file format) என்பது எண்ணிம முறை ஒலிக்கோப்புத் தரவுகளை, கணினிக் கட்டகத்தில் சேமித்து வைக்கப் பயன்படும் கோப்பு வடிவம் ஆகும். இவ்விதம் சேமிக்கும் போது, ஒலித்தரவு சுருக்கப்படுகிறது. மீண்டும் பயன்படுத்தும் போது, அது விரிக்கப்படுகிறது. ஏனெனில், இப்படி வடிவ மாறுதல்கள் செய்யும் போது, அதனை சேமித்து வைக்கும் தேக்ககத் திறன் அதிகமாகும். பெரும்பாலும், இவ்வகையில் ஒலிக்கோப்பானது, எண்ணிமக்கலன் வடிவம் பெறுகிறது.

GSM or MP3 are generally preferred where the recorder allows. It allows additional data to be held in the file header. |- | .dvf || சோனி || A Sony proprietary format for compressed voice files; commonly used by Sony dictation recorders. |- | FLAC || || A file format for the Free Lossless Audio Codec, a lossless compression codec. |- | GSM-FR || || Designed for telephony use in Europe, gsm is a very practical format for telephone quality voice. It makes a good compromise between file size and quality. Note that wav files can also be encoded with the gsm codec. |- | .iklax || iKlax || An iKlax Media proprietary format, the iKlax format is a multi-track digital audio format allowing various actions on musical data, for instance on mixing and volumes arrangements. |- | .ivs || 3D Solar UK Ltd || A proprietary version with எண்முறை உரிமைகள் முகாமைத்துவம் developed by 3D Solar UK Ltd for use in music downloaded from their Tronme Music Store and interactive music and video player. |- | M4a || || An audio-only MPEG-4 file, used by Apple for unprotected music downloaded from their ஐ-டியூன்ஸ் Music Store.
