What is SIT file?
The SIT .sit file extension is an archive format that was developed by Smith Micro Software. SIT is the default format for compressed files created by Stuffit, its commercial archive utility software. SIT files are generally smaller than ZIP archives. While ZIP allows for a maximum file of size 4 GB, the SIT format does not have a size limit. However, these can only be compressed in Unix. [ ⏩ ] SIT file extension

Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from SIT to 1?
To successfully convert the SIT file to 1, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.SIT). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case 1 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than 1).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. SIT to 1. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting SIT files to 1 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension 1, while before this step we had the SIT file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new 1 file, or not.
