Questions

Why convert AAC to WAV?

AAC is the modern lossy format, better than MP3 at the same size. WAV is uncompressed and lossless, which is why the files are enormous. Converting is how you move a file from the first situation to the second.

What will the WAV file be?

16-bit PCM WAV: uncompressed, lossless from here on, and accepted by every editor.

Does converting AAC to WAV lose quality?

No. WAV is lossless, so this step loses nothing - though it cannot bring back what the AAC file already discarded.

Does converting lose quality?

Going to a lossless format never does. Going to a lossy one always does, though usually not audibly at the settings used here.
