It’s a no-brainer actually. We had no idea extracting audio from a video files using Audacity would be so easy. See for yourself. Step 1: Download and install Audacity. Step 2: Open a video file by going to File -> Open. Step 3: Again navigate to File but this time choose Export. Choose the file format to save the audio to and click on Save.
Note: If you see an error message like, “xyz is a video file, Audacity cannot open such files” then consider downloading FFmpeg for Audacity. Step 4: Navigate to Edit -> Preferences -> Libraries and check Allow background on-demand loading. That should be a one-time setting.
Start converting as many videos as you like. Simple and straight forward, isn’t it? Know of more Audacity tricks? Tell us in the comments section.
