Extract Audio from Video — Video to MP3 Converter Free

What is Extract Audio from Video?

The Extract Audio from Video tool lets you pull the audio track out of any video file directly in your browser. Whether you need the soundtrack from a recording, the voiceover from a tutorial, or the music from a clip, this tool separates the audio and saves it in your preferred format — MP3, WAV, OGG, or M4A.

Everything runs locally using WebAssembly. Your video files are never uploaded anywhere, which means the process is fast and your content stays private. There is no file size limit beyond what your browser can handle.

How to Extract Audio from Video

1. Upload your video — drag and drop a video file onto the dropzone, or click to browse your device.
2. Preview the video — confirm you have the right file using the built-in video player.
3. Choose the output format — select MP3, WAV, OGG, or M4A from the dropdown.
4. Set bitrate (optional) — pick a quality level from 64 kbps to 320 kbps. This does not apply to WAV, which is always uncompressed.
5. Extract — click the Extract Audio button and wait for processing to finish.
6. Listen and download — preview the extracted audio with the built-in player, then download the file to your device.

Use Cases

Save a podcast or voiceover — extract the spoken audio from a recorded video to create a standalone audio file you can publish as a podcast episode or share separately.

Rip a soundtrack — pull the background music or audio from a personal video for use in another project or for offline listening.

Create audio clips for social media — extract short audio snippets from interviews, presentations, or live streams to repurpose as social media content.

Reduce file size for sharing — when you only need the audio, extracting it from a large video file dramatically shrinks the file size, making it easier to email or upload.

Transcription prep — many transcription services work better with audio-only files. Extract the audio first to speed up upload and processing times.

Why Use This Tool

Most online video-to-audio converters require you to upload your video to a remote server. That takes time, uses bandwidth, and raises privacy concerns about who has access to your files. This tool runs entirely in your browser tab — nothing is sent over the network, and all data disappears the moment you close the page.

You also get full control over the output format and quality. Choose between compressed formats for smaller files or uncompressed WAV when quality matters most.
