Can I trim the video range before export?
Yes. The Audio Extractor to MP3 includes start and end controls, so you can select exactly the portion of the video you want before exporting the MP3.
Does the video stay on my device?
Yes. Audio extraction and MP3 export happen locally in your browser, so the video is never uploaded to a server and stays private on your device.
Is this for audio files too?
No. This tool takes a video as input. To convert an existing audio file to MP3, use the audio-to-MP3 converter instead.
Is the extractor free?
Yes. The Audio Extractor to MP3 is free to use with no signup, and it runs in your browser so there is no upload or account required.
How do I extract the audio from a video?
Open the video file here and export. The audio stream is decoded and encoded as an MP3 in your browser, and nothing is uploaded.
What quality will the extracted audio be?
No better than the video's audio track already was. Extraction does not re-record anything, so a soundtrack compressed for streaming stays exactly as compressed as it was.
What bitrate should I choose?
192 kbps is a safe default. If the source audio was already compressed for streaming, a higher setting simply stores the same information in a larger file.
Is extracting audio faster than converting the video?
Much faster. Only the audio stream is decoded, so a long recording that would take minutes to transcode takes a fraction of that.
Can I remove the music and keep only the voice?
No. Separating a mixed soundtrack into its parts is a completely different problem and is not what this does.
