as stated in the post title - is it possible at all? or it can only record mono...
if possible, which apps can someone recommend?
to be more precise:
i want to plug in the external audio source to my device and record audio from the device to android...

Hello guys!
I m a very happy user of my diamond and this forum...
I was wondering if there is any application that would allow to record using and external mic , plugged in via a usb - 3,5mm jack for example.
Then i can stop carryin my Iriver h340 thats getting pretty heavy!
Isn t there a tool that can also update date and time automatically ?
Thanks in advance and big up for all the cookers!
As far as I know, the Notes application is able to record from an external mic just like the fixed mic. Just go to Menu > View Recording Toolbar.
There are several applications to sync the time, can't think of any off the top of my head.
The supplied headset has an external mic in it, you should be able to hack into it and solder on a jack socket, then plug in any mic. In theory you should also be able to do the same with a BT headset.
You need "synchrotime" to correct time and date via the internet.
these were quick answers!!
I was more thinking about recording rehearsals and concerts , so more like a dedicated application were u can choose the sample rate m and also the format for ex wave or mp3 plus a gain control...
ttttthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnxxxxxxxxxxx
Pardon me for digging up old bones, but I've been searching for an answer to this for a bit now...
Like the OP asked, is there an app out there for recording audio from an external mic plugged into the 3.5mm jack? I own a Samsung Galaxy S (Fascinate) and know that the hardware side of this topic is covered.
The only "Notes" application I have is notebook. I have audio recorder, but that doesn't have any such settings to choose from an external audio source (and I've tried to see if it just switches to that source if it is plugged in, no luck).
This would make life so much easier for me if I could pull this off. I'd pay for a decent app that covered that.

In a twist to this question/ request.
I am and have been looking for an app also that will be able to utilize the external mic 3.5 mm jack to record audio to the built-in video application.
NATIVE! not hacked or Jerry-rigged. I tried this by plugging in a headset /mic to the external mic port on an EVO and HTC Incredible and it still seemed to use the regular mic on the phone not the 3.5 mm jack.
I'd like to use my incredible/ EVO/ (and rumored HTC Incredible HD) to be able to connect a lapel mic with transmitter and receiver so audio sounds local without echo from a distance.
Plus I could have 2 people miced up and one video camera.
There is no reason why this shouldn't work.
We are not talking power just software access.
If the notes apps uses it to record why can't the video app use the same port.

Way to record audio on Android using external mic
Hi.
You have to buy adapter which will split the signal for microphone in and audio out (you probably know 3.5 jack in your phone is 2 directional as it supports headset with mic)
You can try to look for it on Amazon (headset buddy)
or solder into headset in the pins which are responsible for mic signal.
Then,
I know only 1 app for android which supports recording from external microphone:
Arabela Audio Recorder - choose DEFAULT audio source and it should catch the signal from external mic connected through adapter via 3.5 jack.
I THINK it can catch the audio while recording video because it works in background ... so later you will be able to remove the audio from video recording and join it with the one you recorded using Arabela with some kind of video editor
regards
If you need a adapter for the phone, then check what i did here in this thread:

There are also link to a app which can record video with the external microphone

I think any mic with 4 pole jack should work without any adapters. Like the one's used on iphones etc. Check on ebay for iphone microphone. I ordered a cheap one $1.80 just to test on my SGSII but im 99% it's going to be working. There are some high quality for about $30 as well. Like this one HERE
Hi,
I would like to know if is possible (and how) to use the handset as a stereo digital recorder using the built in line in, or an external device (cheap if possible). The recording quality should be good, 44100 hertz at least. Thanks in advance.

I'm wondering also if it would work... 720p recording is pretty good as itself, getting full sound would make it awesome

thank you for the URL.
ther's an app that could record from this line-in microphone!?!
examples... I would like to recorder from my notebbok to my SGS through line-out & line-in (notebook headphones aux - SGS line-in), I have a cable with two jack, the first jack connected to the notebook, the other jack related to SGS

You will need more than that. SGS headphone port contains contacts for headset L/R out and mic-in/TVOut. You need to find a special 3.5mm plug that contains extra contact, in addition to the normal L and R contacts, to tap into the mic-in pin. And you will also need to have a circuitary to convert line-out audio level to mic-in audio level (very different).
As far as app goes, there should be a voice recorder app already on the phone.
maybe there's a stereo bluetooth microphone? this should work and might be better then a home-made line in cable. The microphone input for the handsfree (3,5 socket) is mono so there might be no option for stereo line-in.
Bass Guitar Amplifier to Android?
Hi,
I'm looking to record audio via a line between my Bass Amplifier (It has a Line Out port) and my Sony Xperia U (Standard Headphone Jack).
From what I read elsewhere, I need a TRRS adapter; these aren't easily available in my country (India). Could anyone point me towards alternate methods to acheive the same result?
Thanks.
EDIT: Alternatively, I'd also love it anyone could point me towards an application that works as an amplifier, that is, accepts direct input from a guitar.

same my phone ?
Hi guys,
I lately have used my Motorola MileStone to record video often and I found that the Video Recorder quality is good enough for my project but not the sound quality.
Do you guys have any suggestion on the Mic that can use with the Motorola MileStone native Camera Recorder? A wireless microphone would we perfect, or at least the 3.5 jack Mic that can give you better quality in sound recording?
Please do kindly help. I'm now in needed of this accessory to complete my project.
Thank you.
Any idea or suggestion you guys have?
Please, only a small information would be such a great thanks.
I've just tried connecting headset and tried to record video but the microphone used was the built-in one You've probably knew this so take this just as a BUMP to this thread
edit> I don't have a BT headset so I've just tried pairing milestone with my notebook and set it to be used as BT headset - however the camera still used the builtin mic.
Well considering the fact that you WILL eventually dump the recorded video into your video editing application - why don't you record the video and audio separately?
Get a decent audio recorder (eg. an mp3 recorder or whatsoever), and then just replace the video audio track with the one that you have recorded.
I would assume there would be some syncing process. But that's the easiest way to do it without any hack or whatsoever. Just plain basic.
When using the hdmi output, does the phone still send audio through its speakers or the miniplug jack? Or it only sends audio through hdmi and cancels all other audio outputs?
Regularly it's sending both audio and video over the cable. Maybe someone knows how to improve overall performance while hdmi is on? ^^
But can it send video through hdmi plus audio through the 3.5 mm jack? I'm thinking in getting a d3, however the monitor I would be using doesn't have audio

This doesn't seem to work right off the bat at least, but I was hoping it was possible. I would like to record video with my HTC but use my bluetooth headset for the audio rather than the phone's microphone. Is this possible with video recording software, stock or otherwise?
