Extract Audio from Video

Extract high-quality audio tracks from video files and save them in your preferred audio format including MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG, and M4A. All processing happens in your browser for complete privacy.

Overview

Extract audio tracks from any video file and save them as MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG, or M4A — directly in your browser using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Drop in MP4, MKV, MOV, AVI, WebM, or nine other video formats, pick your output quality and bitrate, and download the extracted audio in seconds.
