3 Methods to Help You Extract Audio from Video

2025-01-11•6 min read

Need to pull a song or dialogue from a video file? Here are 3 simple ways to extract high-quality audio tracks.

Method 1: Browser Tools

Browser-based converters run extracting scripts locally using JavaScript, making them fast and private.

SopKit's conversion suite can strip audio tracks from files without uploading them to any external servers.

Method 2: Mobile Apps

On iOS and Android, dedicated media converter apps let you load files from your gallery and export them as MP3.

This is useful for quick edits when you are away from your laptop or desktop setup.

Method 3: VLC Media Player

VLC is a versatile, free desktop player that includes advanced transcoding capabilities.

Open VLC, select Media -> Convert/Save, add your video, choose the Audio-MP3 profile, and save the file.
