Your browser decodes the audio track into memory. A file with no audio track, or a codec the browser cannot read, is reported instead of guessed at.
Lift the soundtrack out of a video and keep it as a WAV file. Decoded, previewed and written on your device.
Drop a video or audio file here.
We will decode the audio and write a WAV file on your device.
Your browser decodes the audio track into memory. A file with no audio track, or a codec the browser cannot read, is reported instead of guessed at.
Preview the decoded sound, click the waveform to jump and confirm you have the right take before writing a file.
Export 16-bit PCM, keeping the decoded sample rate. Choose mono to halve the file size when a single channel is enough.
WAV stores the samples the browser decoded. It does not add another lossy pass, and it cannot restore detail the original video already lost.
Keep the source layout or mix down to mono. The estimated file size updates before you write anything to disk.
The waveform is drawn from the decoded samples, not a decorative placeholder. Click it to hear the exact moment you are looking at.
Not in this release. The extractor writes 16-bit PCM WAV, which needs no extra encoder. MP3 compression is a separate tool in the roadmap and is not presented as available here.
No. It contains the audio your browser decoded from the source. WAV avoids a second lossy compression pass, but it cannot recover detail that was already discarded when the video was encoded.
Decoded audio lives in memory, and ten minutes of stereo audio is already a large allocation. The limit keeps a phone browser from being asked to hold a file it may not be able to finish writing. Split longer recordings in a video editor first.
The browser’s decoder rejects it and the tool says the file could not be decoded as audio. It does not create a silent WAV or pretend an empty track succeeded.
No. Decoding and WAV writing happen on your device. There is no media upload endpoint or account, and leaving the page releases the decoded buffer.
