Does removing audio reduce file size?

Most videos will probably benefit from having audio and background music included, but if it's unnecessary, you can remove it. That will decrease the file size without any loss of quality.

Why are my audio files so large?

Bitrate: How much sound data is recorded in each sample, and then transferred into audio. Again, a higher bitrate means better audio quality – and a larger file size. Compression: Lossless and lossy compression are the two types of audio compression, and these impact audio file sizes the most.

Does volume affect audio file size?

Short answer: yes, there will be a small difference in the size of files.

How big is an uncompressed audio file?

An uncompressed file on a CD for example, uses 44.1KHz or a 1,411Kbits of data per second (Kbps). In online music stores such as iTunes, an MP3 music file offers a bit rate of up to 256Kbps. Uncompressed audio files, however, can take up gigabytes of space on a hard drive.
