Anyone? This will hopefully be a 1 time thing so not looking to invest in software. But I have a 60gb video file I just want the audio file from. TY

This is the best and easiest option. However you have to check the codec of audio and then change the extension by that. The most common ones: Dolby ->.ac3, AAC -> .aac, MP2 ->.mp2, MP3 ->.mp3, PCM -> .wav

Thanks everyone, I actually played it from my PC>DAC>analog out>RCA>Mini stereo into my dr05. added a layer of analog to it, but noone would know and the recording was mediocre to start with.

If Mac, Quicktime will do it.
