Video to Audio (Extract MP3)
Pull the audio track out of any video as an MP3, entirely in your browser via ffmpeg.wasm.
Sometimes all you need from a video file is the sound - a podcast recorded on camera, a lecture, a music performance. This tool strips the audio track out of your video and exports it as an MP3 at VBR quality 2 (about 190 kbps), close to the source audio's original quality, using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly and running entirely in your browser. It's the reverse of merging audio into video, and a common first step before trimming or cleaning the extracted track with the Audio Trimmer or Audio Silence Remover.

Common questions
What audio quality do I get?
Extracted at MP3 VBR quality 2 (~190 kbps), close to the source audio's original quality.
Does it upload my video?
No - extraction runs locally with WebAssembly. Nothing leaves your browser.
Can I get a different format than MP3?
This tool always outputs MP3. Extract as MP3 here, then use the Audio Converter if you need WAV, OGG, or M4A instead.
Does it work with any video format?
Yes - MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI and other formats your browser can decode all work as input.
