If you're already using Adobe Premiere Pro for video editing, exporting just the audio from a video project is quick and easy. Premiere offers professional-grade export settings, allowing you to save audio in high-quality formats like MP3 or WAV. This is especially useful if you want precise control over bitrates, channels, and sample rates, or if you're working with complex edits that include sound effects and multiple audio tracks.
How to extract just the audio from a video
- Import your video into Premiere and drag it to the timeline.
- Make any necessary audio edits (cutting, volume adjustments, etc.).
- Go to File > Export > Media.
- In the Export Settings window:
- Set Format to MP3 or WAV.
- Under Export Settings, uncheck Export Video and make sure Export Audio is checked.
- Choose your Output Name and save location.
- Click Export to begin rendering the audio file.
Adobe Premiere Pro is a solid choice for extracting audio from video when you're already editing video content. It gives you full control over audio quality and is perfect for professionals who want more than just a simple audio extraction tool.
