How to remove audio from a video

  1. Click Open the tool above and import your video.
  2. Drag it onto the timeline.
  3. Select the clip and press ⌘L (Ctrl+L) to unlink the video and audio.
  4. Click the audio part (on the A track) and press Delete.
  5. Click Export — the new video has no sound.

Other ways to mute

  • Mute a whole track: click M on the audio track header. Muted tracks are left out of the export.
  • Silence one part: split the audio with ⌘K (Ctrl+K) at the start and end, then delete that piece.
  • Turn it down instead: lower Volume in Effect Controls ▸ Audio.

Replace the sound

After removing the original audio, add music (add music to a video) or record a narration with the mic button on an audio track.

Questions

Does removing the audio change the picture?

No. The video is exported exactly as before, just without sound.

Can I remove background noise instead of all the sound?

Yes — see how to make quiet audio louder and clearer for High-Pass, DeHum and Noise Gate.
