True Audio is an audio format developed by True Audio Software, first released in 2004. It is usually created by Lossless rippers.
A simple, fast lossless codec. It is lossless, so converting to FLAC loses nothing.

How to open a .tta file
OpenAnyFile routes .tta files to its audio player, which shows a player with duration and seeking, if your browser has the codec.
- Drop your .tta file on the box above, click it to choose the file, or paste it with Ctrl+V.
- The real format is detected from the file's first bytes — not just its name.
- The file opens in the audio player.
- Use fullscreen for a closer look, check its checksums, or download it back unchanged.
What works — and what does not
Works
Viewing and inspecting: a player with duration and seeking, if your browser has the codec. Size, type, signature and checksums are always shown.
Does not work
Guaranteed playback. It depends on your browser shipping this codec; if it doesn't, you still get the full inspection.
Is it safe to open a .tta file online?
Here, yes — because nothing is uploaded. Most "online viewers" send your file to their server. OpenAnyFile reads it with your browser's File API and decodes it on your own device, so there is no copy anywhere else. You can check: open your browser's network tab while opening a file — no upload appears.
Questions about .tta files
Can I open a .tta file without installing software?
Yes. OpenAnyFile opens .tta files in your browser using its audio player. You get a player with duration and seeking, if your browser has the codec, with nothing installed and no account.
How do I know a file is really a .tta file?
Check its first bytes instead of its name. A genuine TTA file begins with 54 54 41 31 (TTA1). OpenAnyFile shows the detected type, so a renamed file is easy to spot.
Is my .tta file uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read locally by your browser and never sent to a server — it even works offline once the page has loaded.
Does it work on phones?
Yes — on Android and iPhone, in any modern browser. You can also install OpenAnyFile as an app.
