About converting MKV to WAV
The audio track is lifted out of the MKV and written as WAV. Nothing about the sound is re-recorded — length, channels and sample rate come straight across — so what you get is the soundtrack as it was, in a file a fraction of the size.
How to convert MKV to WAV
Add your MKV file
Drag it onto the box above, click to browse, or paste it straight from your clipboard.
Check the settings
WAV is already selected. The defaults suit most files, and you can open Settings if you want to change the quality or size.
Download the WAV
Most files are ready in a second or two. Larger ones convert in the background while you watch the progress.
Quality
The file is re-encoded, so the WAV is visually equivalent rather than bit-for-bit identical. At the default settings the difference is not something you would notice.
