How it works
How to extract audio from a video?
Open your video
Drag a file onto the box or pick one from your device. It is read straight off your disk, so there is no upload bar and no file-size ceiling.
Pick a format
MP3 plays everywhere and is the safe default. WAV is uncompressed for editing, M4A is AAC at a smaller size, and OGG is Opus for the tightest files.
Press "Extract audio"
The soundtrack is separated from the video and encoded on your own machine. The picture is never decoded, so even a long 4K file goes quickly.
Download the audio file
The file saves as "yourvideo-audio.mp3" — the complete soundtrack, nothing else. Your original video is untouched on disk.
What it's for
Extract music from video
Most of the time the reason to extract sound from a video is that the sound is the part worth keeping: a song playing in a clip you recorded, a voiceover you want to reuse in another edit, a lecture or interview you would rather listen to as audio on a walk. The video around it is just weight — this tool separates the soundtrack and hands it back on its own, so you get a small file that plays anywhere instead of a screen you have to keep on. (Wanting the opposite — the picture without the sound — is the job of remove audio from video, this tool’s mirror.)
Everything happens on your own machine. The video is opened straight from your disk, the audio track is detached and encoded in your browser, and the download appears a few seconds later — no upload queue, no account, and no cap on how long the clip can be. Pick MP3 to get music out of an MP4 in a form every player and editor accepts, or WAV when you are taking the sound into an edit and want it untouched.

Features
Just the sound
The soundtrack is detached from the video and saved on its own — a voiceover to reuse, music to sample, a talk to listen to on the go.
MP3, WAV, M4A or OGG
Rip audio from an MP4 as an MP3 that plays anywhere, an uncompressed WAV for the edit, or AAC and Opus when size matters.
Fast, whatever the video
Only the audio track is processed — the picture is discarded, not decoded. A long 4K file extracts about as fast as a small one.
Nothing uploaded
The video is read and the audio written on your own machine. No upload queue, no server copy, no size limit but your hardware.
MP4, MOV and WebM in
Common camera and phone formats open here — anything your browser can play, the soundtrack can come out of.
No watermark, no signup
The download is your audio, complete — not a trial export with an account wall in front of it or a cap on length.
