Extract the audio from a video
Save the sound of a video as an audio file: the music from a clip, a lecture or interview to listen to on the go, a podcast recorded on video, or speech to transcribe.
How to extract the audio
- Add a video — MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI and more — or paste a direct link to one.
- Choose MP3 (plays everywhere), M4A (Apple devices, smaller) or WAV (uncompressed, for editing), and the quality.
- Press Extract, listen to the result, and download it.
Good to know
- 192 kbit/s MP3 is plenty for music; 128 kbit/s is fine for speech and makes smaller files.
- For FLAC, OGG or Opus, use the Audio Converter; to cut the audio into parts, the Audio Splitter.
- Want the video without its sound instead? Use Mute Video.
Everything is processed in your browser with ffmpeg (WebAssembly): your video is never uploaded, and there are no watermarks.
