[Idea] Recording off bluetooth - Nexus One Themes and Apps

I'm a DJ and I'd love to be able to use my phone to record off the mixer. I know the nexus one doesn't have a stereo line in, just a mono mike. It ocurrs to me that someone clever(er than me) could figure out a way to pair an a2dp stereo bluetooth adapter with a phone and record the stereo signal to an audio file. Mp3 would be awesome, but wav would work fine too.
Am I dreamin here or is this doable?

Nice idea. Would work great as a remote recorder too. (spying, baby monitor etc)

Make bluetooth headset as a wireless mic?

Is it possible to make bluetooth headset as a wireless mic? I would like to use the mic on my BT headset in conjunction with an Audio recorder to record lectures.
I know we can port music into the BT headset. But is it possible to port the mic to the PPC?
Good idea really. As long as I know, the headset really hooks up only during calls
I too am looking to do something like this, but haven't gotten very far yet. Please post any findings. I want to have a better mic to record live music during practices without having to carry a separate portable recorder. So far I have found the internal mic overloads easily and turning on the AGC still doesn't bring down the level enough and has a hard limiter action. So a wireless mic is the next thought. So far I have liked the Resco software the best for audio recording, though I found that mp3 format doesn't work on my FUZE and calls don't come through during playback.
Can anyone verify if darfri is correct that the mic in the headset is only available during a call? Could anyone with a BT headset verify or test if recording uses the internal or BT headset mic? Thanks, I haven't bought my BT headset yet. What I choose depends on how I use it.

music - bluetooth to stereo possible?

just as the title says, is it possible to send music via bt to my stereo just like when i make or recieve calls?
not that i'd use this as a sole way to listen to music in my car, but i just started wondering if it were possible, and if so, how?
It's possible, but you have to make sure that your Stereo has the bluetooth profile for A2DP. It's the same pairing process, but instead of only streaming call audio it will stream any other audio too.
Also, the stereo will have a headphone icon under bluetooth preferences.
Hope this helps.
I do that all the time in my car. The sound quality is not as good as hooking up a cable through th aux jack. The nav direction also come through my car stereo.
Ah yes, I forgot about A2DP being needed... That would make my situation impossible... I'll just have to get a 3.5 mm to RCA plug for aux... Thanks guys.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I had some trouble with this, but the key for me was making my Pioneer head unit "forget" my previous phone. Now it works great!
Actually there is a way to stream music wirelessly to your car stereo: mini FM transmitters. Quite cheap on ebay. I wouldn't bet on audio quality tho.

[Q] calls and media control using bluetooth and wired head phones

Is there any possibility to use bluetooth clips (Motorola S605, SE MW600, Nokia AD-57 etc.) as mic for answering calls and controlling player (play, pause, next, previous) and using wired headphones connected DIRECTLY to mobile phone in order to use high quality 3.5mm headphones instead of listening through them over bluetooth and having this ****ty sound? Thanks in advance.
Yes, for bluetooth for sure.
Well just to be sure - I connect wired headphones to SGS directly (not to the bluetooth clip 3.5mm hole), pair the bluetooth clip with SGS, start player and listen to music through headphones and have ability to start-stop player by bluetooth clip buttons. When the call comes I hear it in headphones and start-stop player or push call answer button on bluetooth clip. After pushing answer button I hear calling person's voice in headphones but talk to the bluetooth mic. After call is ended I can start-stop playing music again by bluetooth buttons. This is 100% tested or it's is appeared to be working? Thanks.
Could anyone confirm my last post? Thanks.
Bump any answer?
Just tried, no go sorry.
If you could find an AVRCP profile device without A2DP or mono-bluetooth output it might work, but I don't expect any exist.

Headphones with working previous/next/volume buttons

Are there any good in-ear headphones with working previous/next buttons to control next/previous track and volume in any music player?
Hi well I've been using the Altec Lansing BackBeat 903 Bluetooth Headset for about 3 months now and that has all the features your looking for plus they sound damn good as well.
I use the stock headphones with winamp, and double tap the pause button and it skips to the next track
But for a real solution with back.. you could get one of the little reciever thingies with a 3.5 jack, so you get wireless + controls + any headphone you like ^_^. But there could be some quality loss if its cheap..
Motorola's s9-HD also have theses foncions enabled.
Thanks for the replies. Those two seem to be ear-hugging types, are there any with regular design?
the best would be to use the Nokia remotes that came with the n95 and others. But apparently it doesn't work since the layout inside the jack are not the same between Samsung and Nokia... too bad
I have a question about this topic, I tried to use the apple in-ear headphones with the mic and the volume buttons on my SGS but when i fully plug it into the jack, theres no sound.... but if i leave it out abit then it works fine.... Do u guys know what is going on?
Any Bluetooth headset supporting A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile : For Stereo audio) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) should work. There are plenty of BT headsets out there. Search for A2DP Bluetooth headsets (if they have media player controls then the chances are they support AVRCP too).
I use a Bluetooth clip, it gives a certain amount of wireless freedom and the ability to use any 3.5mm headphone. If you already have a good pair of headphones you like then a BT clip is perhaps the best way to go.
Here is what I use (Motorola S605):
With a display (SonyEricsson WM600 ):
Both of them have a built in Stereo FM radio as well, if you listen to radio that could come in handy (since the radio on SGS is mono ).
EDIT: One last thing, Audio quality over Bluetooth is slightly lower compared to a wired connection. This is due to the compression codec used in Bluetooth transmission. However, the difference depends entirely on your expectation of sound quality and the quality of your audio files. For example if you are an average user who is happy with a pair of $25 head/earphones listening to MP3s encoded at 128kbps then you won't notice a difference. But if you are an audiophile having $100+ headphones listening to 256kbps+ encoded MP3s then you’ll definitely notice a difference.

Could you please tell me is this possible with bluetooth clips:

I don't think it works like that, but I have to check to confirm.

When you are not using BT audio, I doubt the player will respond to BT player controls.

I dont think you can split the mic and headset function like that, either you use the BT for both mic and headphone or not at all. (unless someone modifies the driver). But again, something I have to check to confirm.
For basic call and volume controls something like this might work.
Here is another alternative, but no mic (not released yet either).

Very helpful, purchasing from ebay as we speak, im sick of not being able to switch song whilst cycling...
Just a question really, do you just use the standard samsung music player?

I like these, thanks.
How does this things work? Do you plug anything to the usb port or do you just enable blutooth and play? Also can you use previous/next buttons while the screen is locked? Can you do these with the default player or do you need anything like WidgetLocker and add the player to the lock screen?
Also are there any wired versions of these?

Looking for some help with Bluetooth and Wired audio priorities

Hey guys, I've got a motorcycle helmet with a bluetooth add on which supports stereo music and phone calls. The stereo speakers are located in the helmet and they're great for around town but when I'm on the freeway I like to use earbuds instead. On my original Droid if I plugged in my headphones they would override the bluetooth audio but I would still be able to control some aspects of the music with my bluetooth controls (track forward, track back). Anyway on the Droid X if I plug in my headphones they do not override bluetooth audio, no sound comes through the headphones so in order to play music through my earbuds I have to turn off bluetooth all together. My question is this, is there somewhere I can edit bluetooth priorities? I would like plugged in headphones to have first priority, I'm sure it must be possible since the Droid allowed me to do this, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. I would really appreciate any insight on this, I've heard tasker may be able to do this but so far have been unable to make it work. Thanks!
