Converting MP4 or other video to WAV

A video file holds picture and sound together. This converter keeps only the sound and saves it as a WAV you can bring into an audio editor or a video timeline.

WAV is uncompressed, so editors and samplers read it straight away and every export starts from the same data. The cost is size: expect about 10 MB per minute at 44.1 kHz, 16-bit, stereo.

Questions people ask

Does this keep the video?

Which audio track do I get?
The first audio track in the file. Videos with several tracks, such as different languages, may need to be split first.
Is the converter free?
Yes, within limits: 3 files a day, up to 100 MB each, with ads. You don't need an account.
Are my files private?
Converted files are deleted 1 hour after they are made. Nobody else can open your download link. Read the privacy page for how we handle files and logs.
Is it legal?
Only convert files you own or have permission to use. You are responsible for the files you add. Our guide on the legal side explains more.
Why did my MP4 or other video conversion fail?
The most common causes are files over 100 MB, damaged files and files that aren't really MP4 or other video. Check the file opens on your device and try again.
