How to Remove Sound from Video

Question:

I downloaded some interesting videos, and want to redub in them using video edit software and send them to my friends. I tried Windows (Including Windows 8) Movie Maker. It can mute the audio of source video, and add new audio. But I really want to remove the audio from source video completely, rather than mute. Who can kindly recommend me some software?

Resolvent:

1Download and install a reliable video editing tool

Strongly recommend Aimersoft Video Studio Express. Both Windows (Including Windows 8) and Mac version are available. Just download the right version according to your computer's operating system.

2Import video files

Click "Import" or "Media" tab to locate your target videos into the editing software, take the Windows (Windows 8 included) version of Video Studio Express as the example. All the added video clips will be listed in the media library as the following picture shows.

3Remove sound track

Drag the videos from the media library into the timeline panel. Both the video and audio will be displayed separately in the video and audio line. Unlink the video and audio by right-clicking to choose "unlink". Then click "remove" to delete the original sound.

Note: if you would like to add some new sound, just add the sound recordings you wanted into the media library and then drag it to the timeline panel.

4Save and share

Preview the edited movie to make sure you have got what you want. Then save the edited video to iPhone, iPod, PSP, etc or computer. You can also upload to YouTube if you would like to share it online with more friends.

Save video to multimedia devices

Note: If you would like to save the edited video to DVD, Aimersoft Best DVD Burning Software, which has both Windows (Windows 8 included) and Mac versions, is a good choice to help you burn any video to DVD.

    Hello. There are no functional differences between the trial version and full version. However, there are limitations like watermarks in the trial one. You can get rid off all the limitations once purchased.

    Seriously don't even bother, to anyone that will read this. It feels like a great software, but only if you plan on purchasing it. Otherwise they add a huge watermark to any video you export T_T Thank you very much for wasting my time. Pathetic.

    The software is very good. Please, explain me one thing: on the link http://support.aimersoft.com/how-tos/add-new-audio-to-the-video.html there is a good explanation about how to remove the original sound and add a new audio to the video file. I only don't understand HOW to "select both video and audio" (8 step). I did everything before that and seems that works but I can't finish the process. Help me. Thank you.

    Hello, thanks for using Aimersoft software. To remove sound from video, would you please only delete the audio track? Please don't simply delete the video on the timeline.

    Doesnt split the video and sound for me.  Its just the image then the sound part says "video".  Deleting just gets rid of the whole thing.  Its an MP4 video off my smart phone if that makes a difference.
