Get the audio out of a video
In QuickTime Player, File → Export As → Audio Only saves the sound as an .m4a file. The built-in avconvert tool does it in one command with the PresetAppleM4A preset.
Without Terminal
- Open the video in QuickTime Player.
- File → Export As → Audio Only.
- Save the .m4a file.
In one command
Save just the audio track as an M4A file:
avconvert --source video.mov --preset PresetAppleM4A --output audio.m4a
