audiotrack

Sound file component

An audiotrack is the sound component of a video or multimedia file, distinct from the visual content.

Films and videos often contain multiple audiotracks—for different languages, commentary, or accessibility features: Switch to the French audiotrack.

In editing software, audiotracks appear as separate layers that can be mixed, muted, or adjusted independently.
