About Extract Audio
Pull the audio track out of any video file and save it in your preferred format. Whether you want to grab the soundtrack from a music video, extract a podcast from a screen recording, or save a lecture's audio for offline listening, CocoConvert handles it instantly.
Choose from five output formats: MP3 for maximum compatibility, AAC (M4A) for high quality at small size, WAV for lossless audio, FLAC for lossless archiving at smaller file sizes, or OGG for open-source compatibility.
The extraction engine uses FFmpeg's codec-copy mode when the output format matches the video's embedded audio codec — resulting in instant, lossless extraction. When transcoding is needed, FFmpeg applies its best-quality encoder for the target format.
Supports MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, WebM, FLV, WMV, and M4V input. Processing runs on dedicated servers in Germany with automatic 60-minute cleanup.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which format should I choose?
MP3 for maximum device compatibility, AAC for best quality-to-size ratio, WAV for lossless editing, FLAC for lossless archiving, or OGG for open-source workflows.
Is the extraction lossless?
If the video already contains audio in your chosen format (e.g., AAC audio in an MP4), CocoConvert extracts it without re-encoding — bit-for-bit lossless. Otherwise, it transcodes at the highest quality settings.
Can I extract audio from a YouTube video?
CocoConvert processes files you upload — it does not download from URLs. You would need to first download the video file, then upload it here.
