It should. It's just people are most likely expected to use it with the 
IPad.

Yeah as for interfaces, Zoom has the U44. If you like how the Zoom H5
and H6 sound with external mikes then you'd be good with this. Sure does
make a mike for the lightning port but it's not stereo. Or at least the
1 I've heard ain't.

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder

2018-08-08 Thread Hamit Campos
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.

You're right though, high frequency sounds like cymbal splashes are always the

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.

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.

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.

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder

2018-08-07 Thread goshawk on horseback
with all due respect, but saying that, "most do" is not really that helpful, 
as there is still a fair chance of getting one that doesn't, as there is 
often no way of telling.
would a Steinberg UR22 work with android for example?

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder

2018-08-06 Thread Dane Trethowan
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.

Just Press Record, Audio Memos, both very accessible. For microphones, I 
recommend the Zoom IQ7, or if you want to go higher-end, the Hook Audio 
or Ambeo binaural earbuds are great.

Yeah as for interfaces, Zoom has the U44. If you like how the Zoom H5 
and H6 sound with external mikes then you'd be good with this. Sure does 
make a mike for the lightning port but it's not stereo. Or at least the 
1 I've heard ain't.

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder

2018-08-05 Thread goshawk on horseback
I personally like the ultimate vr or ultimate voice recorder as it is 
otherwise known app. the quality is customisable, and recordings can be 
automatically sent to dropbox or something like that.

as far as external mics go, there are a few to choose from. a lot of them 
however, don't have any cable, but just connect directly to the lightning 
port, which I think makes them very easy to get knocked and cause possible 
damage to the lightning port.
the main ones are the zoom ones, which I believe there are at least 2, 
possibly 3 models of, and which are nice ones, sure make one, but I haven't 
tested this out yet, and rode also make one, but unless you are going to use 
it with it's own app only, I found the pick up on it rather quiet and 
disappointing.

alternatively, another really good device, is the line6 sonic port vx. this 
is not only a stereo mic, but a good little audio interface as well. some of 
the features of it's app are not very accessible, but a good one that is, 
will let you hear the sound that you will get from it before using any other 
app to actually record. it also has a headphone socket for monitoring, which 
is great for any of the new iPhones which don't have there own.
it also has a cable, rather than being directly fixed to your lightning 
port. finally, it has a mount for any standard mic stand.

finally, if you have a larger budget, and a preferred professional mic that 
you prefer to use, you could get the apogee duet, which again, is an audio 
interface, with xlr input connections.

hope some of this info helps.

Simon

Yep heaps of them and I'm sure other list members have some advice on this.
I'm not really much into IOS products these days but I do plan to get one of
the new iPad Pro machines towards the end of this year and when I do an
external microphone will be on the table.
I believe many of the standard USB microphones we know of such as the Blue
Yetti can be used and I know of others that plug into a headphone jack if
you own a microphone that has such a thing.
So do yourself a favour in the meantime, do a Google search and see what you
come up with, my bet is that you'll come up with enough devices to wet your

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder

2018-08-05 Thread John Covici
Rode makes a very nice external Mic which plugs right into the
lightningport -- you have to not have the phone in a case for this to
work,but this records at least at a sample rate of 48k and bit depth
of 24.  The rode app will go higher, but I think my iphone 6 is not
powerful enough.  This will not work on iphone 7 and above unless you
cut off the part of the mount which covers the home button which is
not really a mechanical button.
