         waveform
        /wav/, /dot wav/ a sound format developed by microsoft and
        used extensively in microsoft windows.  conversion tools are
        available to allow most other operating systems to play .wav
        files.
     
        .wav files are also used as the sound source in wavetable
        synthesis, e.g. in e-mu's soundfont.  in addition, .wav
        files are also supported by some midi sequencers as add-on
        audio.  that is, pre-recorded .wav files are played back by
        control commands written in the sequence script.
