Hey there, how's your day going?
Now, this is not a can-it-be-done kind of question, because the IP Webcam app already does just that - it exposes the audio from microphone via http on localhost:8080/audio.wav and .ogg for anyone to access.
The thing is that the app also does a pleyhora of other things - most notably video streaming, which makes the app one hell of a bad boy when it comes to battery consumption. And not only that, the audio streaming - as implemented - is severely delayed and the format / compression used can't really be adjusted to alleviate that issue, which in turn renders it impossible to turn the droid into a remote microphone (which would be an awesome thing to do ).
And since I don't think the author has ever released a source code (I stand to be corrected), I'm asking whether there is an app dedicated just and only to audio streaming (obviously couldn't find any, hence I'm asking) or whether I'll have to act a dev once again.

So I need to record a track, and I have a 3.5mm splitter plugged into my Droid Turbo and the input and headphones connected to the splitter. Sound comes in and out just fine, I can record and playback without any problems, but I cannot find and Android app that has a good monitoring feature; meaning while recording the phone simultaneously outputs everything it inputs, allowing me to listen to myself through the headphones while recording. I say a good monitoring feature because there is one app, Miidio Recorder, which claims this feature, but has extremely high latency and almost a whole second of lag. There are many ios apps that I have personally used which can accomplish this perfectly, but I cannot find one single Android app.
The apps I have tried so far are:
Miidio recorder
Fl studio mobile
Caustic 3
Pocket studio
At least 5 or 6 different audio recording apps.
If anyone knows of or can code a simple app that does this I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
[EDIT] this is my first post so if I'm supposed to like add anything or something please lmk
Wow, almost 5 months, no reply. leaving a reply because I too would like to know the answer. Is it an Android issue or just plane dislike of developers for Android owners??
Hi,
I have been using xda forum for long but wanted to share my own app(s) now. I completed my binaural audio recorder in January 2016 and published on PlayStore.
Many of us might have listened to some kind of 3d sounds like virtual hair cut etc. Without using expensive hardware anyone can record binaural 3d sounds using 2 android devices. It uses 2 devices as left right ears and mixes to build final output. Features -
- Connect 2 devices using Bluetooth or wifi and control both phones to start and stop recording.
- With wireless connection pressing start and stop affects both devices. Means operate with only one device!
- Records at 44.1KHz 16Bit OGG by default
- Limit of recording is decided by battery and disk space.
- Handles most of tasks automatic.
- Tested on Moto-G, Redmi phones, Yu Yunique, Samsung Galaxy 3 Mini. However due to hardware fragmentation it might fail to work on some devices.
Its an ad-supported freeware in nearly a beta stage due to wifi connectivity operations. Due to no access to universal time source the 2 recorded audio are many times out of sync means some sound plays earlier on a device. This can be calibrated using mixing panel.
I am working on many projects and suffering app discovery problem making almost no downloads of my apps.
Since i am not allowed to post links i am posting how to download. My app can be searched on play store by GamesGreh Binaural 3D Audio recorder or visiting ourinnovativemind dot in or gamesgreh dot in.
Anyone interested in 3d audio please take a look at this app and do let me know any problems you get.
Found this app while searching binaural recording on Android. I downloaded it on two phones but I can't get it to work. Did you give up on it?
Hi,
I stopped working on this project after 2-3 months as i started my other projects. This project required extremely precise timing sync between devices. Due to delay in communication the binaural effect used to fail and it required user intervention for shifting audio channels to get better binaural output.
I use my phonw which has 2 microphone at opposite ends and records stereo +(kind of binaural). I think using hardware is the best way to record binaural. Actually real 3D is not possible by 2 earphones until full research is done how 3d perception in achieved by mind. There is role of other body parts also in 3d. Not just ear passage.

Thanks for the explanation. Good luck with your projects.
Sorry this is not "general" question but I have no enough posts to ask in developers room. I do not want waste a time therefore I ask what I really need. Please answer on topic.
I need get stereo PCM 44/16 audio in buffer but I still cannot find good way to do that. I can get "mic" stream but it is not exactly stereo - buffer has odd samples equal to even. It is 2 channels mono instead. Any solution for native Qt/C++ or Java code is acceptable for me. But it must work in all Android versions starting from 4.0.3. I need "what you hear" signal or at least "now playing music" stream. This must work with any music source. I look at tiny-ALSA but I'm not sure if it will solve my task. Should I distribute tiny-ALSA with my application or it is built in all Android devices? Or may be I can get just a stream like OSS /dev/dsp gives? I tried copy from /dev/snd/pcmC0D0 but without success. Any help appreciated.
Hi everyone,
It is common knowledge (I hope) that when you try to recording a video or just a simple audio file with some music (for example a song during a concert or, in my case, an audio while I play the guitar and I sing something) everything sounds very very badly! Now, my question is:
Is it a software or hardware problem?
This is important to me because I use very often my phone for these kind of things, mostly during a concert. I've tried to look for something about it but I could't find any useful answer. I hope it's a software problem and it can be fixed just changing a ROM. I'm using the phone as stock now. With no root and, of course, no custom ROM. Thank you
Wtf, completely disagree...
Em, I am a musician, and I wouldn't really agree. There's no way that recorded music is better than live music cause obviously, the live one is 100 times much more powerful.
Do you have a case on it?
(Lol, don't cover any of the mic ports with your fingers and keep people, objects out of the sound path.)
Are all the mic ports open and free of debris?
What file type are you recording in?
I wouldn't expect miracles from any smartphone for HQ sound with the built in mics. Some do fairly well.

I feel the same about the audio quality, it's pretty bad.
I actually had recorded a bunch of footage from a birthday party and the audio stopped recording entirely after about 5 seconds in...

The microphone and the output jack is only bad, other than the audio speaker. It's common usage to put low hardware on smartphone like these to push on other features.
V4A Magisk and xXxNoLimits it's good to fix this.
