Extracting audio from video...
5 common reasons:
Choose human transcription for maximum accuracy, or AI transcription for fast results. We accept any audio or video format.
Extract audio from any video format to MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, or M4A. Works with MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, WMV, WEBM, and all other video formats. Perfect for YouTube videos, transcription, podcasts, and music extraction.
Our audio extraction tool supports all major video formats: MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, WMV, FLV, WEBM, MPEG, M4V, 3GP, and more. No matter what video format you have, we can extract the audio track.
Whether it's a YouTube download, screen recording, GoPro video, drone footage, security camera recording, or professional video production file, our tool handles them all with ease.
The extraction process is completely automatic—simply upload your video file, choose your desired audio format, and we'll extract the audio track while preserving the original quality.
Files up to 500MB are supported, accommodating everything from short clips to feature-length videos and presentations.
No need to worry about video format compatibility—our tool automatically detects and processes all common video formats.
Extract audio to MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, or M4A depending on your needs. Each format serves different purposes and offers unique benefits.
MP3 is universally compatible and perfect for general use, music, podcasts, and sharing. WAV provides lossless quality ideal for professional editing and mastering.
AAC offers better compression than MP3 with superior quality, making it perfect for Apple devices and iTunes. FLAC provides lossless compression for archival purposes.
OGG is an open-source alternative with excellent quality-to-size ratio. M4A is the standard for Apple ecosystems, ensuring seamless integration with iPhones, iPads, and iTunes.
Choose MP3 for maximum compatibility, WAV for editing, FLAC for archiving, or AAC/M4A for Apple devices.
We extract the audio track directly from your video file without unnecessary re-encoding or quality loss. The audio you get is identical to what's in your video.
For lossless formats like WAV and FLAC, the extraction is bit-perfect—you get exactly the same audio data that's stored in the video file.
For compressed formats like MP3 and AAC, we use high bitrate encoding to ensure excellent quality that's indistinguishable from the original for most listeners.
Advanced codec support means we can extract audio from videos using any audio codec—AAC, MP3, PCM, AC3, Dolby, DTS, and more.
For absolute quality preservation, extract to WAV or FLAC first, then convert to other formats if needed.
Extract audio from YouTube videos to create offline listening versions. Perfect for music videos, podcasts, lectures, interviews, and educational content.
Convert video recordings to audio for transcription services. Audio files upload 10x faster than videos and are preferred by transcription platforms like GoTranscript.
Create podcast episodes from video content. Many creators record video but want to distribute audio versions for podcast platforms and audio-only listeners.
Extract music from music videos, extract dialogue from movies for study, get audio from presentations and webinars, or convert recorded meetings to audio format.
Audio files are typically 90% smaller than videos, making them faster to upload, download, and share.
Audio extraction is quick because we only process the audio track, not the entire video. Most files process in under 2-3 minutes.
Small videos (under 50MB) typically extract in 30-60 seconds. Medium videos (50-200MB) take 1-3 minutes. Large videos (200-500MB) process in 3-8 minutes.
The tool provides real-time progress tracking with accurate time estimates, so you always know how long the extraction will take.
Multiple processing stages—video analysis, audio track extraction, format encoding, and finalization—are optimized for speed without compromising quality.
Smaller video files process faster. If you only need audio from a portion of a video, trim the video first for faster extraction.
Audio files are dramatically smaller than video files. A 1GB video might produce just 50-100MB of audio—a 90-95% reduction in file size.
This size difference means faster uploads to transcription services, cloud storage, or sharing platforms. It also means less storage space consumed on your devices.
For users with limited bandwidth or storage, extracting audio from videos is essential. Replace large video files with compact audio files when you only need to listen.
Smaller files also mean better compatibility with email attachments, messaging apps, and older devices that have storage or memory limitations.
Delete the original video after extracting audio to free up 90% of the storage space if you only need the audio.
Extracted audio files play on all devices: smartphones, tablets, computers, car stereos, smart speakers, MP3 players, and more. Video files often have compatibility issues.
MP3 format works everywhere without exception. WAV is universally supported for professional applications. AAC and M4A work perfectly with Apple devices.
Audio files integrate seamlessly with music apps, podcast apps, audiobook players, and media libraries, providing a better user experience than video files.
No need for video players or codec packs—audio files work natively on all platforms and operating systems.
MP3 ensures maximum compatibility across all devices and platforms—it's the safest choice for universal playback.
Transcription services only need audio, not video. By extracting audio first, you reduce file sizes by 90%, drastically cutting upload time.
A 500MB video might take 10-15 minutes to upload, but the extracted 30MB audio uploads in under a minute. This speeds up your entire transcription workflow.
All speech clarity and intelligibility is preserved during extraction, ensuring accurate transcription results from both AI and human transcribers.
Many transcription platforms, including GoTranscript, prefer audio files because they process faster and cost less in bandwidth and storage.
Always extract to MP3 before uploading to transcription services—it saves time and bandwidth without affecting accuracy.
Convert video podcasts, YouTube shows, or video interviews into audio episodes for podcast distribution on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other platforms.
Audio podcasts are more accessible—listeners can download for offline listening, they consume less data, work on any device, and don't require watching a screen.
MP3 is the podcast industry standard. Our extraction creates podcast-ready files with proper encoding settings that meet platform requirements.
Repurpose video content as audio to expand your audience reach. Many people prefer audio-only podcasts for multitasking, commuting, and convenience.
Use 128-192kbps MP3 for spoken-word podcasts. Higher bitrates (256-320kbps) are better for music-heavy content.
Your video files are encrypted during upload and processing using industry-standard encryption protocols. Complete privacy is guaranteed.
All uploaded videos and extracted audio files are automatically deleted from our servers immediately after download or within 24 hours maximum.
