Extract audio from video

Pull the audio track out of any video, in the format you need.

Smallest file, universally compatible

Drop a video to extract its audio track

Processed on your device — never on a server.

How it works

1

Drop a video file in and pick MP3, WAV, or AAC as the output format for the audio track.

2

WavyVid demuxes the audio stream from the video container and encodes it to your chosen format, right in your browser.

3

Download the audio file — the original video file itself is only read, never modified or uploaded anywhere.

When you'd use this

  • You want to reuse a voiceover from an old video project without the picture attached.
  • You're turning a recorded talking-head video into a podcast-style audio-only episode.
  • You need just the music or narration track pulled out of a video file for another project.

Frequently asked questions

Which format should I choose?

MP3 for general sharing and compatibility, WAV if you plan to edit the audio further (no compression artifacts to compound), AAC for a good quality-to-size balance.

Does this work on audio files too, or only video?

It's built for video, but audio-only files work as a straightforward format conversion too.

Is the original video file changed?

No — the video file is only read locally to extract its audio; nothing about it is modified, and nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Is there a quality loss extracting to MP3/AAC?

Some, since both are lossy formats — pick WAV if the audio needs to survive multiple further edits with as little compounding loss as possible.

Can I extract audio and then remove background noise from it?

Yes — extract first, then run the resulting file through the noise removal tool for a clean, standalone audio track.
