How to extract audio from video
Upload a video file and pick the output format. The tool separates the existing audio track — no need to replay the video in an editor just to grab the sound.
- 01
Upload a video
Add MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, or similar from your device or a link.
- 02
Choose an audio format
Select MP3, AAC, M4A, or WAV and set the bitrate or quality you need.
- 03
Download the audio
Save the extracted file or continue in Recapo with transcription or editing.
Choose MP3, AAC, M4A, or WAV
MP3 is the smallest and works everywhere. AAC and M4A suit Apple devices. WAV keeps the most detail but produces larger files — pick based on how you will use the audio next.
- MP3 — compact, universal playback.
- AAC / M4A — efficient quality for phones and tablets.
- WAV — uncompressed for further editing.

Audio quality and file size
Higher bitrates sound fuller but create larger files. For speech and podcasts, a moderate MP3 setting is usually enough; for music beds, choose a higher rate.
