About Extract audio from video

Save the audio from a lecture, an interview or a music video as a standalone file. Choose MP3 for compatibility, M4A to keep the original AAC track without re-encoding, or WAV for editing.

  • M4A copy mode is instant and lossless when the video already has an AAC track.
  • 128 kbps MP3 is fine for speech; use 256 or 320 for music.
  • Normalize audio afterwards if the recording is quiet.

How to use it

  1. 1Drop a video.
  2. 2Pick the format and bitrate, and trim if you only need part of it.
  3. 3Download the audio file.

Questions

Does extracting lose quality?
Not in copy mode. Converting to MP3 re-encodes, which is fine at 192 kbps or above.
Can I extract from a long video?
Yes. Audio extraction is quick even for hour-long files.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Everything runs in your browser, so your files never leave your device.
