Yes it tops at 20 KHz actually. So any full range condencer hears like
your ears. 20 Hz to 20 KHZ. But here's the thing. Your ears are only
full range when you're a baby. I thankfully can still hear up to 18 KHZ.
I don't know about the bass. Like does one's ability to hear full 20 Hz
drop as well? Don't know.

That's compression though, and not really connected with the sample size.
You're right though, high frequency sounds like cymbal splashes are always the
first thing to be affected by heavy compression.
I think the human ear "tops out" at around 22,000 khz. That doesn't mean you
don't get benefits from higher sample rates, but they will be pretty subtle for mere
listening. The human voice? Forget it.

Hi!
I guess i always listen to loud *smile*.
Hardrock and heavy metal is not made for low voume listening.
BUt actually if the music is in compressed mp3 i can hear differences when they
smash the cymbal.

Between say 48 and 96K? Yes there is an audible difference for sure.
You probably won’t hear that unless you’re really listening with the volume at
a reasonable level - not too loud of course I did say reasonable -.

Yep Blu-Ray goes up to 192K but that’s different from the DVD 5.1 channels
you’re talking about as most are sampled from analogue 48K.
I’ll say it again just to make things clear and avoid confusion.
Nothing wrong with 48K but it isn’t a high sampling rate if you want to make
top quality recordings.
Why Apple chose to cut things at 48K? Well only they know.
So therefore I wouldn’t bother doing any studio mastering or recording live
bands with an iPhone as you could do better with other devices.
As has been pointed out, voice recordings will be perfectly fine and do sound
very good through the built-in microphone as well as external microphones.
So then we come back to the next question of cost.
Now I don’t know how much an external microphone for an iPhone costs these days
but I do remember purchasing my Blue Yeti which I’ve used with my iPhone and
I’ve used with my Android devices along with Windows, PC’s, Mac etc.
The Blue Yetti cost me nearly $300 which could easily buy me a dedicated
recorder with better quality audio.
So once again, do your research and buy what’s right for you.

Yeah you boath are right. I mean I like going to 96 or hell why not full 192
KHz if 1 can. But that's cause I'm a geek. But as I said with the Eltrenix 48
KHz is your typical 7.1 Blu-Ray movie. Not sure what Dolby Atmos disks are at,
but could be 48 too. It's the 5.1 blu rays like The Passion of the Christ and
maybe the first few Harry Potter disks that go all the way up to 96.

dane, I think for most recording situations. A sampling rate of 48 kHz with the
bit rate of 24K bps is fine.

That all said an iPhone still lacks the high bit and sampling rates that a
dedicated recorder or even an Android phone can offer.
Last I checked the iPhone could only record up to 48KHZ, enough for voice
perhaps.
Regarding the microphone of the iPhone not being of high quality? Well friends
I have to disagree with that statement somewhat, if you can turn off all the
processing on the iPhone behind the microphone then the internal microphone of
the iPhone indeed does a very fair job c considering what it is.
Obviously external microphones can be of higher quality still.

you can use your iPhone as a high-quality recorder.
I would recommend the app called recorder HQ. In terms of microphones, I would
look at microphones like the scheur MV 88 and some of the road microphones that
have lightning connectors.

Hi all
Something I have been wondering about for some time now. Is it
possible to use the iphone as a high quality audio recorder?
Not with the internal microphone of which which is of inferior
sound quality but by connecting an external microphone? Is
there iny kind of app available which you can use to for example
to set the recording quality? I am not interested in video at all.
Regards
André
