Recording audio with the phone

description: A modern smartphone has all the capabilities of recording great audio. Apart from getting as close as is possible to the source and using the airplane/flight mode, how can things like sound distortion be minimized or eliminated?

This is a great point because smartphone designs vary and the quality of the audio will not necessarily be the same. There is definitely a lot that goes into recording good quality audio.

description: Heavy winds and thunder can cause interference so if you have the chance, avoid recording around those weather conditions. Some audio recording programs are worth trying as you can tweak the settings for what you're trying to accomplish. I personally like Titanium Recorder which is a free app (with ads) for Android phones. There's a bit of a learning curve, but there are tutorials online that will help you get started.

It had never occured to me that you can incorporate an app and so I may have to look for one that is compatible with an iPhone. It is surely a learning curve and it takes time to master how to do it correctly.

description: I'm no expert, but there are some audio applications where you can edit your recording. We can reduce the noise or enhance the sound quality. Just make sure that you have a backup of the original audio file when you edit.

description: Hummm. I believe you are somewhat in error. Many newer phones can play great audio. None I know of can record it decently without additional equipment. At the very least a good microphone. The built in ones are designed for voice frequencies and do well at that. There are devices (digital recorders) that are similar in size to phones. Many come with microphones as well. They tend to be a bit costly, but do the job well.

description: I stand corrected. I may have watched too many movies or TV series about law enforcement. So what kind of features does a smartphone have for us to consider if we will use it for voice or sound recording?
