Canonical URL: https://soulnio.com/mp4-to-mp3

## How it works

Choose an MP4 containing audio. The video track is ignored and the soundtrack is encoded into a standalone MP3.

## Result

A high-quality MP3 for listening, transcription, podcast production, or audio editing.

## Limitations

The MP4 must contain a readable audio track. MP3 conversion cannot restore quality missing from the original soundtrack.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does MP4 to MP3 keep the video?

No. The downloaded MP3 contains audio only.

### Does the original MP4 change?

No. The MP3 is created as a separate file and the original video remains unchanged.
