Need the Audio from Your MOV Video?
MOV files from iPhones, QuickTime, and professional cameras often contain audio worth extracting separately. Maybe you recorded an interview, captured a live performance, or have video with audio you want to edit independently.
Converting MOV to WAV extracts the audio track in uncompressed format-perfect for editing, mixing, or archiving the sound without the video.
How to Convert MOV to WAV
- Upload your MOV file - Select video from iPhone, QuickTime, or any source
- Confirm WAV output - WAV provides uncompressed audio for maximum quality
- Download your file - Get audio ready for editing or archiving
Processing happens in your browser-your files stay private.
Common Uses for MOV Audio Extraction
Interview Recordings
Recorded an interview on your iPhone? Extract the audio to WAV for editing in Audacity, Logic, or any DAW. Clean up the sound, remove background noise, and publish as audio-only content.
Music Performance Capture
If you recorded a live performance on video, the audio might be useful for demos, samples, or standalone release. WAV format preserves every detail for post-processing.
Video Production Workflow
When editing audio separately from video in professional workflows, extracting WAV gives you maximum flexibility in your audio software before syncing back to video.
Podcast Preparation
Recorded video for a podcast but publishing audio only? Extract to WAV for editing, then export your final podcast in MP3.
Why WAV Instead of MP3?
- WAV - Uncompressed, full quality, ideal for editing and archiving
- MP3 - Compressed, smaller files, good for listening and sharing
If you plan to edit the audio, use WAV. Edit in uncompressed format, then export to MP3 as the final step. This prevents quality loss from multiple compressions.
For quick extraction to share or listen, consider MOV to MP3 for smaller file sizes.
Audio Quality from MOV Files
WAV extraction quality depends on your source MOV:
- iPhone video - AAC audio at 44.1kHz, good quality extraction
- Professional cameras - Often 48kHz audio, excellent quality
- Screen recordings - Quality varies by recording settings
We extract at the source sample rate without degradation.
Batch Convert Multiple Videos
Have multiple MOV files to extract audio from? Upload them all and convert in one batch. Each video's audio extracts to a separate WAV file.
