What is a 50MB WAV file useful for?
A 50 MB WAV at 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo provides approximately 5 minutes of uncompressed audio — a common size for a music recording session take, a podcast chapter in WAV master format, or a batch of sound effects. Use it to verify that your audio upload enforces a file-size limit before processing (or handles large WAV files via multipart upload), that async transcoding is triggered correctly, and that WAV-to-compressed-format conversion stays within worker memory limits.
What's inside this file?
Generated by ffmpeg. A 440 Hz sine tone approximately 5 minutes long at 44.1 kHz, 16-bit PCM, stereo. The data chunk contains approximately 26,460,000 stereo samples. Full decode with librosa would load approximately 210 MB of float32 data into RAM. Always use stream-based processing (chunk reads) rather than full decode for WAV files above 10 MB.
