How to convert MOV to WAV online

Open a MOV and export its audio as a WAV file for editing, transcription, or archiving. The MOV to WAV converter decodes the sound to uncompressed PCM in your browser, without uploading the video.

  1. Step 1

    Choose your MOV
    Pick a file or drop it into the converter above.

  2. Step 2

    Keep WAV
    WAV is selected; choose another audio format if you need one.

  3. Step 3

    Download the WAV
    Save the uncompressed audio when it is ready.

What to expect

Supported inputs
MOV files, including iPhone and QuickTime recordings, and other readable video or audio files.
What happens
The video track is dropped and the audio is written as uncompressed PCM in a WAV file. WAV is selected first; you can choose another audio format.
Limits
The MOV needs an audio track. WAV files are much larger than MP3, roughly 10 MB per minute of stereo sound.

Your files stay on your device

Your computer does the work, so the file never has to be uploaded, and that’s also why it’s free: there’s no server time for us to pay for. You don’t need an account, and nothing you make gets a watermark.

Questions

WAV is uncompressed, so editing software and transcription tools get the decoded sound with no further compression. MP3 is much smaller.

No. The WAV holds the MOV's decoded audio exactly, but it cannot restore detail the original recording didn't have.
