Hi Brandon,

I asked my wife to look at the video.  She thinks the phone is too close.  I 
was thinking if you moved it back it might help on the clipping/distortion, but 
she says it should be moved back because she cannot see the whole keyboard or 
all of you.  You get cut off at about your right ear/shoulder.

There may be some settings to adjust the microphone level in the app.  I 
haven't delved deeply into it, but it also has lots of adjustment features that 
can be applied after the recording.  It is just more than I need for what 
little I record.=, which is mostly spoken word stuff.

I hope that helps.

Later,

Richard

Hey, so I tried recording with dolby On and it definitely improves the sound 
quality and there's no clipping, but now I notice a constant mild distortion in 
the background, especially in the quieter sections.

My phone is 3 years old — could it just be that the microphone isn't very good? 
Or is there some setting I should change in the app?

Here's an unlisted video demonstrating the issue: https://youtu.be/Rt5HZrUfPL4

I did have the countdown setting enabled, which the app says automatically 
tries to trim out background noise. Maybe that could be the issue, too?

Thanks,
Brandon
