Questions

Why convert FLAC to WAV?

FLAC is lossless but compressed, so it keeps the quality without the bulk. 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 FLAC to WAV lose quality?

No. WAV is lossless, so this step loses nothing.

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.
