Only need the audio from your MKV file — for editing in a DAW, or an app that requires uncompressed audio? Converting to WAV extracts the sound as a lossless file every professional tool accepts.
MKV vs WAV at a glance
MKV is the flexible open container — can hold almost any codec, multiple audio tracks and embedded subtitles, but browser support is limited. WAV is the lossless audio standard — uncompressed PCM audio, identical quality every time, but files are 10× larger than MP3.
