Save the sound track from a video file as MP3, WAV or M4A.
or drop, paste, or choose from cloud
The audio extractor copies the sound track out of the video and hands you a single audio file. Your video is not edited or replaced.
No download and no sign-up. Drop an MP4, MOV, AVI or MKV file in and the extraction starts straight away, on any device.
Choose MP3, WAV, M4A or another audio format, set the bitrate and channels, or cut out only the part of the video you need.
Upload your video file, for example MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV or WEBM.
Wait until the video is processed and review the basic file details.
Choose the audio format you need, such as MP3, WAV or M4A, and adjust optional settings like quality or start and end time.
Start the extraction so the tool separates the audio track from the video.
Download the new audio file and use it in your player, editor or project.
Use this tool when you only need the sound from a video file. Upload a video such as MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV or WEBM and save the audio track as MP3, WAV, M4A or another supported format. Keep music, voice, podcast episodes or voice overs without the video and prepare them for players, editors or sharing.
A video file is a container. Inside it sit a picture track and one or more sound tracks, usually encoded as AAC, MP3, AC3 or Opus. Extracting means reading that sound track out of the container and writing it into an audio file on its own.
The video you upload is not modified. You get a separate audio file back and can keep using the original clip as before.
On the input side the common containers all work: MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WEBM, WMV, FLV, and 3GP. Extracting audio from an MP4 is the most frequent case, because phone recordings, screen captures, and most downloads are saved as MP4.
On the output side, MP3 plays on nearly every device and app, so it is the safe default. WAV stores the audio without compression, which is what you want if the track goes into an editor next. M4A keeps AAC quality at a smaller size, and OGG, FLAC, AAC, and AIFF are available as well.
If the video has more than one sound track, for example a second language, the extraction uses the first one.
Extracting to MP3 or M4A re-encodes the sound, so the bitrate you choose sets the result. 192 kbps or higher keeps music close to the source for most listeners. For speech, an interview, or a lecture, 96 to 128 kbps in mono is enough and keeps the file small.
Pick WAV when quality matters more than size. It writes the audio uncompressed, so nothing is thrown away a second time. The cost is size: a few minutes of stereo audio already runs to tens of megabytes.
The optional settings also let you change the sample rate, switch between mono and stereo, and adjust the volume. You can set a start and end time so only the part of the video you care about is extracted.
Upload the video above, choose the audio format you want, and start the extraction. It runs in your browser, needs no account, and everyday clips are free.
Yes. MP4 is the most common input here, together with MOV, AVI, MKV, and WEBM. The tool reads the sound track inside the container and writes it out as MP3, WAV, or M4A.
MP3, WAV, and M4A cover almost every use. MP3 plays everywhere, WAV is uncompressed and best for editing, and M4A keeps AAC quality at a smaller size. OGG, FLAC, AAC, and AIFF are also available.
No. The original video is left as it is. The tool copies the sound track out and returns a separate audio file, so you end up with both.
Yes. Open this page in your mobile browser, pick a video from your camera roll or cloud storage, and download the audio when it is ready. There is no app to install.
In VLC you open Media, then Convert / Save, and add the video. Pick an audio profile such as Audio MP3, choose a destination file, and start. It works offline, but you have to get the profile settings right. Doing it on this page takes fewer steps and needs no install.
An audio extractor is a tool that separates the sound track from a video file and saves it as an audio file. This page is an online audio extractor, so nothing is installed on your computer.
Free extractions cover everyday clips and recordings. If you regularly work with long videos, a subscription raises the limit and removes the queue.
Everything here runs in the browser, with no install and no sign-up.
