The September update will have an audio-only recording option. Expect this update by the end of September.

There is currently no built-in feature to solely record audio and ignore video in Webex. However, it is a very simple to create a recording and then extract the audio from the recording. A third-party program is required to complete this process on Windows.

Extract Audio on a Windows Computer

  1. Create a recording like you normally would. It is always recommended to "Save to Cloud" for file safety. Once your Recording is available for download, download the Recording onto your computer.
  2. The recommended program for Windows users is GoldWave. With this program, the video does not have to be viewed in order to extract the audio unlike other programs. Click here to download GoldWave - Free Version. For this process, you do not need the paid version.
  3. Download, install, then open GoldWave. Close the Introduction box if it pops up.
  4. Click on File → Open
  5. Navigate to and open the .mp4 file that you downloaded (your Webex recording).
  6. You will now see the waveform of the recording.
  7. Click on File → Save As
  8. Save the file as an appropriate audio file type; .mp3 is recommended.

Extract Audio on a Mac Computer

  1. Create a recording like you normally would. It is always recommended to "Save to Cloud" for file safety. Once your Recording is available for download, download the Recording onto your computer.
  2. Open QuickTime and open the recording.
  3. Click on File → Export → Audio Only...
  4. Give the file a name and choose where to save it.
  5. Click Save.
