Stereo Sound - LG Optimus 2x

Is a way to make stereo sound for video recording?

how would you record stereo with only 1 mic?

))) i don't know )... the sound is so low..

It actually could be possible, by using a second mic on the 3.5 mil port. The thing would be to allow it to record with the 2 mics, since it is very likely that the external mic would cancel out the internal one.

Bluetooth Microphone only?

I wonder if any of you know the existance of a bluetooth microphone so I can record a class. I love to be able to leave the mic close to the instructor desk and be able to record with better quality.
I am using my mogul to record with the external mic and it's fairly good for the distance btw the device and the speaker, but I have to do some audio editing in order to hear a clear sound.
Anyone? or maybe another solution for this?
Thanks

Voice recorder with external microphone?

OK so the TYTN II has the USB output thingy for headphones and the hands free kit with built in microphone. And you can also buy the USB to 3.5mm connection for standard headphones.
But could you attach a 3.5mm connection microphone to that adapter instead? Could you attach a broadcast quality microphone to the TYTN II and use the built in voice recorder program to record an interview?
Discuss.
Technically yes, but your broadcast mic won't be very useful because AFAIK the phone also has a "telephone quality" filter on the external mic input.

how does it works
What?
.
Is it a software or hardware filter?
I use Hi-Q MP3 Recorder with my Vibrant. It records in CD quality and sounds great. I did this the narrative for a quick video I put together a few days ago, just using the phone's built-in mic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXQvJuI41YE
The sound you hear in the background is my noisy desktop PC - didn't go somewhere quiet to record it, my bad. Still, the original sounds *much* better; YouTube's conversion reduced its quality quite a bit. I'd imagine it would produce decent recordings given a better mic.

Microphone?

Can you use a headset with a microphone (to make VoIP calls etc)?

And there is a 3.5mm headset jack, correct?

Unfortunately the headset jack is 3pole meaning there is no mic input. On the plus side "Chip supports bluetooth transmit/recieve and fm radio functions through the same antenna, but is not enabled in software drivers." so maybe we can get bluetooth mics to work.

There is a 3.5 mm jack for listening. I do not know if it will work with a microphone. I tried a few sound recorder programs without success so far.

I tried this also. I plugged in my iPhones earbuds with microphone. no luck. A Bluetooth stack that supports headsets with microphone seems to be what I'm waiting on.

Stereo recording

Anyone tried to record sound in stereo with A6+ ? On my previous Android, I used to use Hi-Q to record sounds of nature (birds) and other life sounds. Always in stereo 44kh.
But now, even though Hi-Q says I'm recording in stereo, the recorded sound is mono. I've tried all options, snd many recording apps, and the result is always monophonic recording. The sound quality is very good, but not stereo.
I know it needs 2 mics to have stereo recording, but as far as I know, our A6+ has them. So something 's not clear here.
Any help appreciated.

Unfortunately no, A6+ does not have 2 mics so you can't record stereo sound. On all samsung phones with a secondary mic, the mic is on the top side of the phone. As you can see by this picture, it does not have a secondary mic.

Possible to use an external microphone?

So, I recently got my unit and been trying to get it to work with an external microphone. I have puluz shotgun mic that connects via 3.5mm jack. I have a headphone adapter so I was trying to get it to work with open camera. No dice.
Anybody got an external microphone to work?

I've not used a proper external mic, though I've a Mi Youth wired headset that works just fine.
I read of someone being unable to get a usbc mic to work

I'm planning to use the shotgun mic for videos so I wouldn't have to get a label but if I can't make this work, I doubt a label would.
I've only tested it with my mic so I don't know if it's a compatibility issue or not since I tested the mic on my PC and it works just fine. I hope this is not a hardware limitation.

Not sure what you mean by "a label" (maybe a lapel mic?)
Also I'm not sure if my post was clear that the mic function of my wired headset works fine.
Suggest you have a look at the poles on your microphone jack. Fwiw my headset has 4 poles, though I couldn't tell you which is which.
It tends to be that poles 1 and 2 are left and right audio, 3 is ground and 4 mic - it's possible that Xiaomi use a nonstandard set up on their devices but unlikely.
Depending on the poles on your mic you could probably pick up an adapter plug to switch the poles about or else use insulation tape to blank off some of them

Yep. Lapel mic. Auto correct kept changing it. I bought an adapter so I would have 4 poles but still not working. I tested the mic if it actually works and it worked fine in my PC.
Boya Lapel mic Works with POCO F1
i tried Boya mic with default camera app and it does not work.
I tried with other third party camera app from Play store which allow us to customise the mic settings
I set external mic in the setting and shot a video. Boya works fine with poco f1
Whixh third party camera app?
I've tried open camera but it doesn't work with my BOYA BY-MM1. Can you please share which camera app you got your pocophone to work with an external mic.
A microphone and an app to record sound properly
If you go to this link:
a2zapk.com/345718-easy-voice-recorder-pro-2-5-7-b11089-paid-a2z.html
you have the "pro" version of this app, is really pro. You can record in .WAV lossless if you change it in settings, also in stereo and with 48Khz...
Download it, go to setting and change everything to the maximum quality.
Also have a noise reduction and echo reduction
And the mic can be:
BOYA BY-M1
I hope you like it! :good:
Works with the open camera app

I used open camera. go to setting and change audio source to external mic. The default app doesnt let you use the external mic is a shame. I am creating a video checking the quality of the mic right now, will post it in a day on my youtube channel trouvaille -by Aamir
This is the best Android app for recording audio (interview etc), also good for video shoots to edit & sync later:

I have the same problem on my poco f1
I tried using my lapel mic, boya mic, shotgun mic all mics faiked to tecord soubd through external mic. The video gets its sound from intetnal mic by default. I ttied all settings but no use.
Its a shame we are not able to use external mic on such a device with good video capapbility.
Not tried any third party apps yet. Plz suggest the besy one that really works.
I use a USB mic blue snowball. With a USB c converter and software from play store. That works.
Some info on 3.5mm connectors on this page: http://www.epanorama.net/newepa/2014/09/15/android-device-external-mic-wiring/
Most (if not all) android phones use the AHJ pinout.
Any solution for this?
Which type is Pocophone?
