Hi guys,
I was wondering if someone with a HTC One M7 with HDR mic could record loud audio with the voice recording app, or an app like "Smart Voice Recorder" which allows you to select the sample rate at which to record (it has an option for 44.1Khz CD quality on it), and see if the recording is distorted at all?
I'm asking because Nokia's phones which have a HAAC mic utilise the HDR mic when recording video, but when recording audio only, loud sounds are distorted which means it doesn't use the high quality HDR/HAAC mic, and apparently no one'd written a windows phone app that uses the HDR/HAAC mic when I asked last year - can someone confirm things are different on Android?
Of course running a custom ROM may mean the HDR mic isn't supported in the first place (referring to this thread).
Would be great if someone could experiment and find out what's what!

Hi guys,
I lately have used my Motorola MileStone to record video often and I found that the Video Recorder quality is good enough for my project but not the sound quality.
Do you guys have any suggestion on the Mic that can use with the Motorola MileStone native Camera Recorder? A wireless microphone would we perfect, or at least the 3.5 jack Mic that can give you better quality in sound recording?
Please do kindly help. I'm now in needed of this accessory to complete my project.
Thank you.
Any idea or suggestion you guys have?
Please, only a small information would be such a great thanks.
I've just tried connecting headset and tried to record video but the microphone used was the built-in one You've probably knew this so take this just as a BUMP to this thread
edit> I don't have a BT headset so I've just tried pairing milestone with my notebook and set it to be used as BT headset - however the camera still used the builtin mic.
Well considering the fact that you WILL eventually dump the recorded video into your video editing application - why don't you record the video and audio separately?
Get a decent audio recorder (eg. an mp3 recorder or whatsoever), and then just replace the video audio track with the one that you have recorded.
I would assume there would be some syncing process. But that's the easiest way to do it without any hack or whatsoever. Just plain basic.
Hello everyone. I have a problem with the audio when recording video. When playing back a video the audio is always distorted, as if the video was shot outside in high winds. I am running ARHD 12.0 with firmware 2.24.401.1.
Using the Voice Recorder app, the audio is recorded just fine.
Check this clip I just recorder to hear the audio:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rt5fevc9jinqtr/2013-07-08%2018.07.08.mp4
This was shot indoors apparently. Even when I speak, there is no voice recorded. Only this distortion.
This doesn't seem to work right off the bat at least, but I was hoping it was possible. I would like to record video with my HTC but use my bluetooth headset for the audio rather than the phone's microphone. Is this possible with video recording software, stock or otherwise?
I have one major issue with P20 Pro. When I connect the headset that comes with the phone and use it for Video recording and snapchat, it doesn't get the voice from the headset mic, still it uses the main phone mic.
There is a camera app called Open Camera which resolve the issue if I want to use the Video recording but the main Camera app still lack this ability. The main issue for me is the snapchat.
Is there a way around this ?
Hi XDA Community
Setup:
Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 (connected to a USB 3.1 HUB because otherwise 48V Phantom Power does not work)
Two Condenser MICs connected to INPUT 1 and INPUT2 of the USB Sound card, powered by 48V
Samsung DEX Dock
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (Single Sim) running Android 9 (2020 May Security Updates)
Findings:
1) Signal Messenger App
recording Voice Messages seems to use 44100 Hz recording, and the USB is most likely set to 48000 Hz. This results in crackling and digital noise in the recorded audio file
i played around with the Voice Recorder (see 2) and many other things, and Signal Messenger on DEX Screen suddenly started to record nearly correctly on 48000 Hz..
No digital noise
Records Line 1 and Line 2 onto just the left side of a stereo signal. Playback of that recording plays only on Left Speaker
After rebooting, today i cannot get this behaviour back, digital noise is there and i struggle again to find a solution how to tell Android 9 to use 48000 Hz for Signal Voice Recording or any other app with the lack of settings
i tried Voice Call with Signal Messenger on DEX Screen, but the Audio was forced to Earpiece or Speakerphone, especially the other side complained about crackling in sound quality which only disappeared, when i started Signal Messenger on the Mobile Screen on the Note 8, then it used only the internal mic and the Speakerphone, and other party said the quality is really good, but not what i want with the external mics
2a) Voice Recorder (there are several) https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....app.voicenote
can choose 44100 and 48000 Hz after my USB Soundcard is recognized and it also shows recording from External Mic Notification.
If I choose 48000 Hz the sound has no crackling or digital noise, it is crystal clear, but mono, it records both inputs on a mono track, stereo setting is greyed out
if i chose 44100 Hz i have digital noise, crackling.
uses system audio drivXDA
2b) Voice Recorder (another on) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splendapps.voicerec
can choose 44100 and 32000 Hz and you can even chose stereo and here it works
with 44100 Hz there is digital noise, but stereo
with 32000 Hz there is no digital noise, it is a preset called FM quality and i would like to use this for voice recording for broadcasting on FM later, we run a show on the radio
3) Audio Evolution Mobile Studio DEMO Version
comes with custom audio drivers (like DAWs on Windows also use the ASIO Drivers that are invented by Steinberg Cubase)
can use all inputs from an USB soundcard for recording in any setup with any KHz or bit in mono or stereo setup
in my case this was the only tool where i can correctly record my stereo mic setup
very nice but cannot change System Settings since comes with custom LOW LATENCY driver
maybe i will buy this Actually i use Steinberg Cubase on Windows usually
4) Zoom App
i tried a Video Meeting with Zoom App on Android 9 on this Samsung Note 8 to a Windows Laptop in different country
did not work at all on DEX, crashed on the DEX screen after joining the meeting
neither external USB Soundcard worked
if you launch on the mobile only Speakerphone, Earpiece and Internal Mic is supported
video freezes for both parties if I switch to a different app and continues if i put Zoom App in foreground
5) Google Meet
runs on Samsung DEX Screen perfectly
can present my screen from DEX
did not test with external soundcard
other paties video continues to work in background
my camera that is shared to the other partie does not record if i switch Meet App to background
better than Zoom App on Android, no wonder its Google
6) WaveEditor
best Multitrack Audio Editor that I have seen so far
Works on Samsung DEX
not really for recording but for editing/cutting/postpro
Free Version has most features, but for pro editing like compressing/parametric EQ need to buy the Pro version, I am thinking about that
really good tool, I am very happy
Conclusion:
In Signal Messenger App I have also this crackling if I record a Voice Message (and it Runs on Dex), so I suppose I need to tell Android Audio Manager to use 48000 Hz on my USB Soundcard Inputs. But how? I would like to see a Audio Manager Configuration Tool, that can change this System Wide
How do I achieve this? Any Ideas are welcome. Thanks for reading and thanks for your time posting a reply. Good day.
PS, i also opened a support Case at Samsung (in Community and Support) kee p you updated if they answer.
