Extract audio from video online
To get the audio from a video, drop the file on the box above and click “Convert”. The converter keeps only the sound and saves it as MP3 by default, or as M4A, WAV or FLAC. It runs in your browser, so the video is never uploaded.
Supported video formats
MP4, MOV (iPhone), MKV, WebM and M4V. The sound inside can be AAC, MP3, Opus or Vorbis. Opus, Vorbis and MP3 work in every current browser; AAC, the usual sound in phone videos, is read by Chrome, Edge and Safari, and by Firefox where your system provides the codec.
Common uses
- A talk, lecture or webinar recording to listen to on the go
- The music or sound from a clip
- Voice notes that were recorded as video
- A podcast episode from a video recording
MP3, M4A, WAV or FLAC?
MP3 plays everywhere. M4A (AAC) is a little smaller at the same quality. WAV and FLAC are lossless, which is what you want if you will edit the audio afterwards.
Videos from websites
The converter works with video files on your device. It does not download videos from YouTube or other sites.
