Research direction

The issue mentions Recoders and AudioRecorder.onAudioReady, but names no files or tests. Start by reviewing the existing recording API and its supported output formats, then clarify which encoders and API surface are required; completion criteria are not specified in the issue.

Description

feature-request
Feature Request

Using Recoders may imply the use of some encoders to convert buffers gathered from AudioRecorder.onAudioReady. In particular, uploading a .wav file to a remote server may be heavy compared to .opus or .aac format, as well as it would save some computation time serverside to do so.

Although this is definitely not part of the Audio API, curious to know if providing such encoders are planned to be supported in the future as it will come very handy to use with this library.
