Task 022: .AIFF File Format
1. AIFF File Format Specifications and Intrinsic Properties
The Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF) is a file format developed by Apple Inc. in 1988, based on the Electronic Arts Interchange File Format (IFF). It is used for storing high-quality, uncompressed audio data, primarily in pulse-code modulation (PCM) format, though a compressed variant (AIFF-C) exists. AIFF files are structured as a series of chunks that contain metadata and audio data. Below is a list of properties intrinsic to the AIFF file format, as derived from its specifications:
Intrinsic Properties of AIFF File Format
- File Header:
- Identifier: A 4-byte ASCII string "FORM" indicating the start of an IFF file.
- File Size: A 4-byte unsigned integer specifying the total size of the file (excluding the first 8 bytes).
- Form Type: A 4-byte ASCII string "AIFF" (or "AIFC" for compressed variant) identifying the file as AIFF.
- Common Chunk (COMM):
- Chunk ID: 4-byte ASCII string "COMM".
- Chunk Size: 4-byte unsigned integer (typically 18 for standard AIFF).
- Number of Channels: 2-byte unsigned integer (e.g., 1 for mono, 2 for stereo).
- Number of Sample Frames: 4-byte unsigned integer indicating the total number of sample frames.
- Sample Size: 2-byte unsigned integer specifying the bit depth (e.g., 8, 16, 24, or 32 bits).
- Sample Rate: 10-byte extended precision floating-point number (80-bit IEEE 754) representing samples per second (e.g., 44100 Hz).
- Sound Data Chunk (SSND):
- Chunk ID: 4-byte ASCII string "SSND".
- Chunk Size: 4-byte unsigned integer indicating the size of the chunk data.
- Offset: 4-byte unsigned integer (usually 0) specifying the offset to the start of audio samples.
- Block Size: 4-byte unsigned integer (usually 0) for block-aligned data.
- Audio Samples: The actual audio data, stored as interleaved PCM samples for multiple channels.
- Byte Order: Big-endian for all numerical fields (except in AIFF-C/sowt, where audio samples may be little-endian).
- File Extensions:
.aiff,.aif(standard AIFF), or.aifc(compressed AIFF). - Container Format: Based on IFF, allowing multiple chunks (required: COMM, SSND; optional: NAME, AUTH, (c), ANNO, etc.).
- Metadata Support: Optional chunks for metadata like name, author, copyright, or annotations.
- Audio Encoding: Primarily uncompressed PCM; AIFF-C supports compressed codecs (e.g., sowt, MACE).
- Sample Rates: Flexible, typically 8 kHz to 192 kHz (e.g., 8000, 11025, 22050, 44100, 48000, 96000 Hz).
- Bit Depths: 8, 16, 24, or 32 bits per sample.
- Channels: Supports mono, stereo, or multichannel audio.
- File Size: Large due to uncompressed PCM (e.g., ~10 MB per minute for stereo, 44.1 kHz, 16-bit).
These properties are derived from the AIFF specification (version 1.3, 1989) and related sources.
2. Python Class for AIFF File Handling
Below is a Python class that can open, read, decode, write, and print the intrinsic properties of an AIFF file.
import struct
import os
class AIFFFile:
def __init__(self, filename):
self.filename = filename
self.properties = {}
def read_extended_float(self, data):
"""Convert 80-bit extended float to Python float."""
exponent = struct.unpack('>h', data[0:2])[0]
mantissa = struct.unpack('>q', data[2:10])[0]
return float(mantissa) * (2.0 ** (exponent - 16383))
def read_aiff(self):
"""Read and decode AIFF file properties."""
try:
with open(self.filename, 'rb') as f:
# Read FORM header
header = f.read(12)
if len(header) < 12 or header[0:4] != b'FORM':
raise ValueError("Not a valid AIFF file")
file_size = struct.unpack('>I', header[4:8])[0]
form_type = header[8:12].decode('ascii')
self.properties['Identifier'] = header[0:4].decode('ascii')
self.properties['File Size'] = file_size
self.properties['Form Type'] = form_type
# Read chunks
while f.tell() < file_size + 8:
chunk_id = f.read(4).decode('ascii')
chunk_size = struct.unpack('>I', f.read(4))[0]
chunk_start = f.tell()
if chunk_id == 'COMM':
comm_data = f.read(18)
num_channels, num_sample_frames, sample_size = struct.unpack('>hIh', comm_data[0:8])

offset, block_size = struct.unpack('>II', f.read(8))
self.properties['Sound Data Offset'] = offset
self.properties['Sound Data Block Size'] = block_size
self.properties['Sound Data Size'] = chunk_size - 8
f.seek(chunk_size - 8, 1) # Skip audio data
else:
f.seek(chunk_size, 1) # Skip other chunks
if chunk_size % 2: # Pad byte for odd-sized chunks
f.seek(1, 1)
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error reading AIFF file: {e}")
def write_aiff(self, output_filename, audio_data=None):
"""Write AIFF file with properties (placeholder for audio data)."""
try:
with open(output_filename, 'wb') as f:
# Write FORM header
file_size = 4 + 8 + 18 + 8 + (len(audio_data) if audio_data else 0)
f.write(struct.pack('>4sI4s', b'FORM', file_size, b'AIFF'))
# Write COMM chunk
f.write(struct.pack('>4sI', b'COMM', 18))
sample_rate = struct.pack('>h8s', 16398, b'\x00' * 8) # Simplified for 44100 Hz
f.write(struct.pack('>hIh', self.properties.get('Number of Channels', 2),
self.properties.get('Number of Sample Frames', 0),
self.properties.get('Sample Size', 16)))
f.write(sample_rate)
# Write SSND chunk
f.write(struct.pack('>4sIII', b'SSND', 8 + len(audio_data if audio_data else b''), 0, 0))
if audio_data:
f.write(audio_data)
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error writing AIFF file: {e}")
def print_properties(self):
"""Print all AIFF properties."""
for key, value in self.properties.items():
print(f"{key}: {value}")
# Example usage
if __name__ == "__main__":
aiff = AIFFFile("sample.aiff")
aiff.read_aiff()
aiff.print_properties()
# aiff.write_aiff("output.aiff") # Example write (no audio data provided)
Explanation:
- Reading: The class reads the AIFF file, parsing the FORM header, COMM chunk, and SSND chunk to extract properties like channels, sample frames, sample size, and sample rate. It handles the 80-bit extended float for sample rate.
- Writing: A basic write function creates an AIFF file with the specified properties (audio data is optional).
- Printing: Displays all extracted properties.
- Limitations: Assumes big-endian PCM data; AIFF-C/sowt (little-endian) requires additional handling.
3. Java Class for AIFF File Handling

Explanation:
- Reading: Parses the AIFF file using
RandomAccessFileto handle binary data, extracting FORM, COMM, and SSND chunk properties. - Writing: Creates a new AIFF file with the specified properties (audio data optional).
- Printing: Outputs all properties to the console.
- Limitations: Simplified sample rate encoding; AIFF-C requires additional codec handling.

Explanation:
- Reading: Uses standard C file I/O to parse AIFF chunks, handling big-endian data.
- Writing: Creates a minimal AIFF file with optional audio data.
- Printing: Outputs properties to the console.
- Limitations: Simplified sample rate encoding; AIFF-C not supported.
Notes:
- All classes handle the core AIFF properties (FORM, COMM, SSND chunks) but simplify audio data handling due to complexity and variability.
- AIFF-C (compressed) and little-endian (sowt) variants require additional logic not fully implemented here.
- The code assumes valid AIFF files and minimal error checking for brevity.
- Writing functionality is basic and assumes default values where properties are missing.
- Test with valid
.aifffiles; audio data writing requires proper PCM data formatting.
- Properties of .AIFF file format:
Form Header: ckID ('FORM'), ckSize (uint32), formType ('AIFF')
Common Chunk (COMM): ckID, ckSize (uint32), numChannels (int16), numSampleFrames (uint32), sampleSize (int16), sampleRate (80-bit extended float)
Sound Data Chunk (SSND): ckID, ckSize (uint32), offset (uint32), blockSize (uint32), soundData (byte array)
Marker Chunk (MARK, optional): ckID, ckSize (uint32), numMarkers (uint16), markers [id (int16), position (uint32), markerName (pstring)]
Instrument Chunk (INST, optional): ckID, ckSize (uint32=20), baseNote (int8), detune (int8), lowNote (int8), highNote (int8), lowVelocity (int8), highVelocity (int8), gain (int16), sustainLoop [playMode (int16), beginLoop (int16), endLoop (int16)], releaseLoop [playMode (int16), beginLoop (int16), endLoop (int16)]
Comments Chunk (COMT, optional): ckID, ckSize (uint32), numComments (uint16), comments [timeStamp (uint32), markerId (int16), count (uint16), text (pstring)]
Text Chunks (NAME, AUTH, '(c) ', ANNO, optional): ckID, ckSize (uint32), text (char array, even-padded)
Other chunks: ckID, ckSize (uint32), data (byte array)
