Hi there,

You can remove the video track from your arrangement, but you need to ungroup it from the audio track first: Select the imported object in timeline mode and use the ungroup function, either by clicking on the broken chain button in the icon bar or by pressing the keyboard shortcut CTRL+M. Now you can select the upper video track separately and just press the Delete key to remove it. Done!

If you want to use the song outside of Movie Edit Pro or you want to save it for future use, you might also just want to export the audio part into an actual audio file, which can be done in the "File" menu => "Export movie" sub menu => "Audio as wave" option.

I hope this helps.
