Iphone 5 App To Record Singing

How do I make my voice sound better on android version SMULE (singing app) ?

You just stole my question…while I was given an option…I was looking for a reasonable alternative..Smule is more of an IOS friendly App and not very good with Android. I am an avid user of Smule and love singing on it and love my Android phone equally. I have been changing headphones from one to another in last 11 months…with no improvement in my overall experience.I recently switched to iPhone headset, the problem honestly reduced to some extent…but it still persists and bothers people who wish to join my songs more than I do, because of the crazy distortion in the background.I finally tried singing using my husband's iPhone..and voila!! It worked like magic. All these months I was thinking it is either my headphone or just me not singing right.The option given to me was to switch from Android to iPhone which I don't find reasonable.I know I haven't provided any solution…but have tried eliminating the reasons we might be thinking of, causing a bad recording experience on Smule for us, like our headphone, our singing style or our surroundings etc etc.I saw a YouTube video where this android user was talking about a device she used to plug into her phone to get rid of all the distortions. I have no idea whether it works or not…you could try that…

How do I record video and music at the same time with an iPhone?

If your iPhone records video at normal speed without sound, it has a problem that needs some attention by a professional repair person. Or look into your camera app menu, there may be some option that disables sound recording during filming.Yet, somehow I think your phone is fine.I presume that you want to record QUALITY audio instead of what iPhone (or any other smartphone) built-in microphones offer by default.You have three general options:SmartRig lineup of devices by Saramonic and a suitable microphone. It depends on your specific model of a phone as to which one to use: with a 3.5mm jack or with Lighting only. Also you have to choose your quality XLR microphone accordingly — a directional shotgun, a handheld reporter, a lapel, or plug a cable into a line output. At that you'll probably have trouble with getting your sound levels right anyway, unless you invest into an app that allows manual audio input levels control. I'm not in Apple ecosystem, not I use my phone for any more or less serious photo, video or audio (I have dedicated gear for each purpose), so I'm not aware if there is a video recording app that allows decent audio recording as well. Filmic Pro or something like that may do it.Such recording app alone, without any external devices. You'll be actually amazed what you can achieve if you don't allow overload. Particularly if later you'll do some post-processing of your sound in any decent audio editor starting with Audacity (any OS) or Garage Band (Mac).Tailored microphone for an iPhone (Lighting) by Zoom, Aputure, Saramonic, Shure or other manufacturers, that mounts on to your phone.Separate audio recorder like Zoom or Tascam DR, with or without an external microphone suitable for your situation.I guess that at any commercial music event security will confiscate anything that looks like more or less serious recording equipment unless you arrange that with managers or musicians directly.At that I remind you and anyone else who reads this answer that any quality recording, photography or filming is NOT done by a phone, at least without a sizeable investment in extra dedicated gear that probably will cost you as much as a used camcorder with something that resembles a suitable microphone… and some acquired skills.Please specify in comments what and in what circumstances exactly do you want to record.

What kind of external mic should I buy for my iphone7 for singing on Smule. I'm confused?

The only external interface on an iphone 7 is a digital port so you cannot connect an analog mike without an interface.

The connections is Lightning <> USB <> XLR...

You can use any "Class compliant" USB audio interface - they works with a standardised audio driver (which the iphone/ipad have built in) by using an Apple lightning to USB socket adapter cable.

(You can get them cheaper elsewhere but make sure it is a real Apple one, the clones generally do not work for this).

You connect that to a *powered* USB Hub - that prevents the audio interface killing the iphone battery...
eg. https://www.amazon.com/Anker-4-Port-Adap...

Then any suitable audio interface:
eg. a Tascam US-2x2: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tascam-US-2x2-...

That then allows you to connect a microphone, guitar, keyboard etc. as you wish.

Microphones are a complex subject...
Two main types:
Stage / Hand mikes, used as close to the mouth as possible, for where there is background noise.
The Shure SM58 is the best you can get of that style, around $100 new.


Studio mikes - much more sensitive and will pick up the slightest trace of background noise; they need to be used in totally silent or soundproof rooms to give proper quality with no noise / echoes.

There are a vast number of "Studio condenser" mikes advertised at present - and most of them are scams, a $1 electret condenser capsule in a fancy casing for $200 or more... You can actually get one like that for $20..

"True condenser" mikes at sensible prices are rare; the MXL V67g and V87 are good value, the V87 is a fair look-alike copy of a $3000 Neumann U87.

I recorded my voice on iphone voice memo. Is that actually how I sound?

No its definitely NOT! :) The only way to really hear your true sound... Is if you record with a bit more professional tool then the iPhone and it's built in mic... Especially if your singing... But there's an other really simple way... Just cup your ears or put two folders in front of your ears... If anyone who thinks people spend thousands of dollars for quality mics, if you could just hear the real deal with an iPhone... You're just dumb... So No! That's not how you sound... Oh and if you don't believe it... Then listen to someone who you know well and compare it to what he/she recorded.... You'll hear that it's more distorted and unpleasant and kinda robotic... That by the way is because these mics can't pic up your true resonance.... They usually add it later as an effect in studios... It's called reverb or delay depends what you like to use... It's best to only use a minimum amount but that's what makes you sound more natural, then robotic... Hope that helped... :)

How long does the iPhone record sound on voice memos?

It's unlimited. There are apps on the app store that record your sleep too like "Sleep Talk Recorder".
