How to turn a video into an audio file

Quite often, while watching some videos, we can come across interesting music or sound effects, but it’s not always possible to find out their name to search for them. In such cases, it’s best to convert the video to audio so that you can listen to it or use it in other projects.

Luckily, it’s not difficult to do, because there are many video-to-audio converters that will help with it. And if the audio you need is not the only one in the video, you can cut it out before conversion to leave only the desired fragment, or trim the audio after.

Once your clip is ready, our converter will help you with the conversion process! It is an online tool that allows you to turn video into audio in seconds. It’s compatible with many video formats – so, you can use clips in MP4, 3GP, ASF, AVI, HEVC, M4V, MKV, MOV, OGV, SWF, TS, VOB, WEBM, WMV, or XVID formats. As for audio, you can convert your video to MP3, OGG, AAC, AIFF, AMR, FLAC, M4A, M4R, OPUS, WAV, or WMA. And it’s very simple to do!

  1. Upload the clip

    Open Clideo’s Video Converter, then click "Get started".

    On PC, you can drag and drop the video from a folder; on any other device simply use "Choose file" to upload the clip.

  2. Convert the video into audio

    At the top right, there is a window where you can select the format you want to convert into in the drop-down list.

    To see all the available extensions, hover over the audio icon.

    Click the gear icon to see the additional settings you can adjust. When converting video to audio, you can modify audio frequency and audio channels.

    After you set everything however you need, click "Convert".

  3. Download the converted audio

    After the file is converted, click "Download" to save it to your device. Note that the converted file does not go to your projects, so be sure to save it immediately after conversion. When you download the audio, you can go back to change the conversion settings or convert another file.
