Hey guys - I'm looking for any suggestions on a voice recorder that's pretty good. The stock one seems to pick up a TON of background noise, and it just sounds...well, dirty.
Anyone have any suggestions? Free is good, but I'd be willing to shell out a few bucks for something worth it.
I like to use Catch Notes.. I mainly use it to take quick notes witthout having to type them.. but u can use it as a voice recorder if u like..

Give "Hi-Q MP3 Recorder" a try.
I've tried quite a few & this one is the best one I could find.

I like the HTC-Voice-Recorder, it's simple and easy to use without the stylus..only the quality is so bad! The Notes program can record in nice quality..so the mic. is not the problem..
Anyone know how to improve the quality with HTC-Voice-Recorder?
Or, does anyone know a Prog which works on the Hermes WM6.1, which records directly to mp3s in moderate high quality?
I used to have one, but it broke up every 20secs or so and was unusable that way..
Thx for any infos

1.Vito Audio Note

I tried Resco Audio Recorder, the problem with it was that the recorded file kept breaking up every 20secs or so..and the lower settings were to bad quality as far as I remember..
Hello!
I want to know where the audio files recorded with HTC Voice Recorder are filed on my mobile?
Thanks

I am using Microsoft Recite.
Maybe you could try NoteM, I have used this for years, not sure if it works on 6.1 or not but it's worth a shot. It's free, why not?

Does anybody know if upgrading to Pandora One increases sound quality? It says it does for a desktop but makes no mention of it for Android.
I have a Pandora One account. I have an option in Android app "Cell Network Audio Quality - with the high quality setting, music will sound better but may contain more skips and hesitations" Not sure if people with free account have this option.

Well since the 3.29 update the sound quality is much better since froyo. It was so bad I quit using it but know its a great app again! People always bring up the soud quality setting like it is a new setting but iy has alwas been there! I have zero issues with pandora now no skipping it doesnt cut out and sounds great even on 3g..if you are having issues try to uninstall and re-install to see if that fixes it for you..if not there is something else going on with your phone...maybe the rom you are using idk...works great for me though and im very picky when it come to sound quality...good luck

I don't have any issues with the sound quality, I was just curious if it can get even better.

Oh. Dont think so, it would just get rid of the adds and give you unlimited song skips...
Pandora One does not currently increase sound quality on mobile devices... no matter what type of connection you have.
Would be nice to get that 192kbit sound quality like the desktop version.....
I've got my HTC a month ago,Europe version,Grey.No issues at all hardware or software,i stil can't belive the build issues people complain to One x.Maybe i got a good build.Everything works smooth,all in all perfect 5 but!!!I love my phone!Whenever i record video or audio,no matter what quality or resolution,if there is background music,something like pop,electro something a bit bassy and rich sound,the sound is all mesed up.Its not even,its high pitched,its highs are all right,but mids and low are garbage.Its frustrating to delete video just for the sound,could there be a fix in the update,is it only my device,what can i do to fix it,or should i give it back.It is very frustrating,video quality is epic,but audio recording is crap,glitchy,cracky.Even my Desire S has better audio recording.I tought it's that crapy speakerphone,but it isn't.This doesn't change if i open it from another device like my PC.Please help me iam at my wits end with this...
Facing the same issue!
Whenever I make video recording some thing on a houseparty it seems like it tries to balance the sound somehow,.. on my computer it sounds like 8 kbit quality or somethig
yeah I got that too, just tried recording my sons band and the sound is awful
I had the same issue when I enabled stereo recording in the camera app.
The only resolution was to disable the setting.

I too have noticed the same problem, video I took at a wedding was terrible. I am wondering if it is because generally when taking a video my hand seems to cover the microphone hole at the bottom, will need to take some more videos to verify.
Same here, overly compressed and squashed sound that doesn't make sense in a few videos.
I wish there was some way to get rid of all the Beats Audio and audio output files and replace them with the galaxy or sony xperia ones, unless it is a hardware compressor in which case it is a total design failure.

I dont think its covering the mic with the hand. I took care not too, using 2 different one x's and they were both the same. I have turned off the stereo recording now and will try again next time
Also, there's an option to enhance sound when you play videos through the gallery app. This has made things sounds strange for me too.
Same issue here.. Recorded at a party But the Sound is terrible.. My iPhone loving Friends will Make fun of My One X if I post this.. any Solution yet?

i'm on stock and have now tried just about everything possible to get reasonable sound recording in a party (music and talking and glasses etc) setting and its just not possible.
It's the built in noise cancellation feature during video recording that is doing this. No way around it AFAIK.
The same problem was in the HTC sensation. Still not forgiven HTC about that as they boasted stereo sound recording. HTC desire had similar poor recording but that got sorted in an update. Here's a thing to try. What happens when you use voice recording? Is the sound still poor? Gonna try now.

If the noise cancellation microphone is causing all of this there is a way to disable the alternative mic (in this case the noise cancelling microphone) with a simple build.prop command

add these lines at the end of your build.prop

You would need to be rooted. Open build.prop with a file explorer or text editor then add the lines in

I used the headset that came with my phone to record. I just need to transfer to my studio setup to test results with and without headset so I know it's no placebo. Also ordered a mini mic off eBay. Had one for my iPod but can't find it should come on Friday. If it works ill be using this.
I recently switched to an AOSP rom and found that the samsung voice recording app sounds very good. I'm not sure, but i'm guessing it utilizes both mics. The first app from the market i tried, smart voice recorder, sounded horrible. I couldn't hear the lecture at all. Does anyone know of an app that utilizes both the mics or sounds as good as the touchwiz app?
for general recording I use recforge...i bought pro, you can swap formats, decrease gain It can successfully record vocals during band practice with a loud guitar, so i can find harmonies after if I'm struggling or if a new soong. I highly recommend this app for recording. There are also convert tools and other options
as for lectures, I use lecture notes pro version with lecture note recordings. The recording is not as nice, but good enough and when listening to a play back, i can search, then press a place on my handwritten notes and it will automatically synch the play back to the time when i wrote the notes. I use it with a stylus and it take what i wrote in the window at the bottom and places it on a line in the "paper", it does multi pages, has so many options for tweaking size, font, and way more than I can list here. There is a trial version however the recording add on is purchase only. the lecture notes printed out really nice from phone and tablet or i can share them to google drive, evernote etc. I tried 7 notes and like lecture notes much better with regard to fluency when in a lecture.
and if just a recorder I would go with recforge...HTH!

Def will...there is a free version i believe where options are limited within app for formats mono vs stereo etc but you can check out quality for yourself its my go to recording app for sure...hope you like it or find what you need
Tape-a-Talk Pro. Its unbeatable. It sounds excellent from 30 ft and works fantastic on all of my devices, even my tab that has a pretty bad mic.

Never tried that one but will certainly check it out...what kind of options come with that? Do they have a free or trial app?
Hi. What is the best way to record audio at concert?
Default Audio recording android app is bad, but audio using video recording is much better.
Is there some audio recorder app in store that give better quality for audio recording?
Thanks
I use smart voice recorder it does real good with music in my opinion
I found the default app (LG?) much too loud (very high gain).
Tried a few, I now use titanium recorder. Not for concerts though, just general recordings (bonus: it's free)
hi q mp3.?

You can try Secret Voice Recorder. Apart from providing you the best quality voice recording, the app lets you start and stop voice recording simply by pressing the power button 3 times within 1.5 seconds. The power button gesture will work even if your mobile is locked.
I am the developer of the application. If you got any suggestion or feedback, let me know. I will look into it and fix it.
I suggest you to try Apowersoft audio recorder software where you can record your voices, record from music streaming sites and more. You can also save audio in high quality and get deal on the product from dpcoupon.com
