Free WebM to WAV and MP3 Converter

Extract the sound from WebM videos and save it as a WAV file for editing, or as an MP3 for listening. Your videos are processed in your browser and never leave your device.

Online WebM Audio Extractor

WebM is an open video format made for the web. Browser-based screen recorders, recorded video calls and many web videos use it; the sound inside is Opus or Vorbis.

When to Extract Audio from WebM

Typical sources are screen recordings made in the browser, recorded meetings and clips saved from web apps. Extract the narration of a screen recording, the audio of a recorded call or the sound of a clip you want to edit. A WAV opens in every editor, which WebM audio often does not.

Which WebM Files Work?

Chrome, Edge and Firefox decode WebM audio (Opus and Vorbis) themselves, so WebM files work there. In Safari, support depends on the version; if a WebM file fails there, open the page in Chrome, Edge or Firefox.

WAV or MP3: Which Output Should You Choose?

Choose WAV if you are going to edit the audio: it is uncompressed, so nothing more is lost when you cut, clean and save it. Choose MP3 if you just want a small file to listen to or share; 192 kbps is a good default, and 128 kbps is enough for speech. The audio in a video is almost always compressed already, so a WAV does not sound better than the video did; it only avoids a second round of compression.

Large Files and Several Videos

You can add up to 20 videos; they are processed one after another, and each result has its own player and download button. The whole video is loaded into your device’s memory before the audio is extracted. Clips and recordings of a few minutes are no problem, but very large files, such as long 4K recordings, can fail, especially on phones. If that happens, try a computer or a shorter clip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the WebM to WAV Converter really free?

Yes. It is free to use, with no sign-up, no daily limits and no watermark on your files.

Are my audio files safe and private?

Yes. The audio is processed in your browser on your own device. Your files are never uploaded to our servers.

How do I extract the audio from a WebM video?

Add the WebM file, choose WAV or MP3 as the output and click Extract Audio. The sound is decoded in your browser, and you can listen to it and download it as soon as it is ready.

Can I convert WebM to MP3 here?

Yes. Choose one of the MP3 options under Output Format and the audio is saved as an MP3 instead of a WAV.

What is a WebM file?

WebM is an open, royalty-free video format developed for the web. It holds VP8, VP9 or AV1 video and Opus or Vorbis audio. Browsers create it when they record the screen or a video call.

Why can’t the audio of my WebM file be extracted?

The video may have no audio track, or your browser may not support WebM audio, which can happen in Safari. Open the page in Chrome, Edge or Firefox and try again.

Is the audio quality reduced?

With WAV, no: the audio track is decoded and saved without further compression. With MP3, the audio is compressed again, which costs a little quality; at 192 kbps or more the difference is hard to hear.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no fixed limit, but the whole video is loaded into memory. Very large files, such as long 4K recordings, can fail, especially on phones. Try a computer or a shorter clip if that happens.

Can I extract the audio from several videos at once?

Yes. Add up to 20 files, click Extract Audio and download each result, or use Download All.

Do I need to install any software?

No. The tool runs in your web browser on computers, phones and tablets.
