On-device encoding can work the processor harder than ordinary playback during this AU-to-WAV job.
A short AU sample is quicker to process than a full-length recording.
Review the beginning and end of WAV after the download finishes.

WAV serves DAWs, editors, podcasts, and production delivery, whereas AU commonly serves Unix workstations and older audio software.
For AU-to-WAV delivery, plan for large files for long recordings.
After leaving AU, the receiving app must support the streams encoded inside WAV, not only its extension.

AU to WAV taking too long? Process a shorter section to determine whether file size is the bottleneck.
WAV converted from AU not opening? Test a compatible player and inspect the output streams.
Check whether the receiver supports this WAV variant: large files for long recordings.

When does AU to WAV conversion make sense?

It is useful when AU media created for legacy workstation exchange must enter a WAV system designed for editing and interchange.

Where is the AU source processed?

The browser prepares WAV from AU on this device instead of sending the source to a remote conversion server.

How can I approve WAV converted from AU?

Test the WAV file in the receiving app and compare duration, channels and loudness with the AU source.
