About Video to Audio

Video to Audio extracts the audio track from a video file using the Web Audio API, entirely in your browser. Note: the output is always a mono WAV file — only the first audio channel is extracted, so stereo sources are downmixed to a single channel, and there's no MP3, AAC, or OGG export option.

Is my file uploaded anywhere?

No, extraction happens entirely in your browser via the Web Audio API.

Tips & Tricks

✓If you need stereo or a compressed format like MP3, convert the downloaded WAV afterward with a dedicated audio converter.
✓This works on the video's decodable audio track — if your browser can't decode the video's specific audio codec, extraction will fail.
✓WAV files are large and uncompressed — convert to MP3 afterward if file size matters for sharing.
✓Extraction is usually much faster than the video's actual duration, unlike the canvas-based video tools that re-record in real time.
