About this app

High quality sound recorder for Android.

Features:
• record in PCM WAV (lossless), or M4A (compressed - small file size)
• raw MIC data (captures all sound)
• also recording with screen OFF
• stereo MIC (if device has 2 MICs) - listen with headphones and feel surrounded by the sound
• select the Audio Source (UNPROCESSED / CAMCORDER / MIC / DEFAULT)
• sample rate 8kHz to 192kHz (older devices may not support all the sample rates)
• bits per sample selection 16-bit (high quality) / 8-bit (record files to use in some embedded systems)
• ajustable gain 0 to 60 dB or automatic (look-ahead AGC)
• AGC processing step selection 10ms to 500ms
• AGC measured amplitude averaging factor A_avg 0 = max. amplitude, 1 = buffer average
• user-configurable file name including date and time
• stereo / mono channel selection
• option to swap left / right channels
• left / right channel balance +/- 10 dB
• keep screen ON - option so that device does not enter sleep mode
• disable ringing and vibration while recording - option so that the recording does not get ruined by the phone ring or vibration
• in-app audio player (listen to the recordings)
• in-app audio file converter (WAV / M4A to M4A / WAV)

You have to see the magic of automatic sound level / gain control (AGC), especially if you use to record meetings / lectures. It works as follows: it amplifies the quiet sounds to capture all, but then if a loud sound happens, it gets reduced volume to not damage your ears.

App. intended for personal and commercial use.

WAV files are limited to maximum 4GB per file, that is the technical limit of the WAV file format.
M4A files don't have the 4GB limit and they are usually much smaller anyway.

It does exactly what it needs to do. I was able record stereo/binaural audio on my Pixel phone in WAV at 32-bit/48-khz sampling.(32-bit float would be a great addition!) I recorded for over an hour without any issues. The process of exporting/moving files from the [app_files] location to somewhere I can copy them to my computer is a little bit clunky to figure out, but it works.

Thank you for your feedback! We updated the app. We switched now from "32-bit integer" to "32-bit float" as "32-bit float" is much more popular format. If users will request "32-bit integer" back giving valid reason, then we will add it back as additional option.

Very well put together app unlike a lot out there. The permissions make sense, nice to see no unneeded access. Settings seem to give some good options to control the recordings. In some more playing seems like the app is useful at picking up sound at a distance with the gain settings, useful for different uses. Nice work 😊

Thank you! If the sound is distorted, try to decrease the input gain from settings.

Limited. Record's lossless format sound. Allows you to compress the content. That's it. Unattractive and mostly useless GUI. No blank space elimination. No trimming or track editing. Un-inspiring and only one tool in a too-small box. Not enough tools to justify keeping just this one. Requested/ received refund and promptly un-installed.
