Frequently asked questions
What is Extract Audio?
Pull the audio track out of a video as MP3, AAC or WAV.
When would I actually use this?
Trimming a clip to the part that matters, pulling the audio out of a video, and converting to the format a platform will actually accept.
What is the most common mistake?
Re-encoding when a copy would do. Every lossy pass loses quality that no later step recovers, so trimming without re-encoding is always the better route when the format is already right.
How is Extract Audio different from Audio Converter?
They sit next to each other but answer different questions. Audio Converter: convert between MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG and FLAC, and change the sample rate or the channels. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.
Is there a tool for the next step?
Change video or audio speed is the closest one after this: Speed a video or audio file up or down, hearing the result live before anything is encoded. The pitch follows or stays natural, your choice.
What else is worth having open alongside it?
Merge Audio and Normalise audio loudness — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.
Where do the figures come from?
Processing runs in the browser through a WebAssembly build of the same encoders desktop tools use, on a single thread. That keeps the file private and off any server, and makes long clips slower than a native application.
