I noticed that the video's audio quality is bad, or at least for me. Any good microphones that'll go into the headset port that can handle something like front row of a concert? My iPod and friend's iPhone always worked fine.

.. microphone. Or at least, a minijack socket. I recorded a video off my artemis yesterday of someone playing drums. It's distorted to hell, it can't handle it and even if it could, it's thin and tinny. I have a great sony stereo mic which I use with my minidisc recorder. It would be great to use it with a phone, or better still, to have a phone with a high quality stereo mic built in. Has this been done or is it likely? Not to mention the video frame rate is terrible.

You're using your phone to record live music, did you expect to record an album with it?

No.
The question is quite straight forward. Anyone else like to have a go?
I've been wondering how people's experience of the N5 audio aspect is, speaker wise and headphone wise. Would love to know feedback on this as to site chances in which I could enhance their audio aspects.
If anyone could answer the following queries I have I would gladly appreciate it.
- DSP tunneling (In regards to the 60 hr playback)
- Speakers are Stereo like the N7 2013 or Mono
- Audio codec being used (Preferably in the audio conf file under /system/etc/media_profiles.xml and mixer_paths.xml)
- List all the libs named audio in system/lib/hw
Thanks a million guys
Im pretty sure the audio is mono.

Yup the device output is mono and it's not very good either. The speaker falls weak of everything apart from Bass. It just feels to be lacking. I have used a G2 and the speaker is much louder and clearer, but the speaker on the G2 is only mono too which leads me to wonder whether the Nexus uses the exact same speaker as the G2 but the software on the Nexus limits it's output.
To me audio is quite a big thing, as ridiculous as it sounds I do sometimes play music out of my phone, and I also use YouTube out loud. I have noticed with the Nexus 5 is is sometimes hard to hear notification sounds, especially in the morning when I am on the bus for example. I know it's not just my device there are numerous reports about this around the web and do not confuse this issue with the tinny audio bug, this simply is the speaker quality.
In terms of headphone output, no complaints.

Sorry for the late reply but thanks for your input in this. Very helpful! I'll see what I can do. The idea being the dsp tunneling is what disturbs me the most. I'm tempted to order one to see about it.

Like the title I'm looking for the best speakers and sub for that low price. Preferably under 150, my max for speakers alone is 100. If there are speakers that can produce a decent bass response that would be fine as well. I'm on a budget and need sound for my tv and laptop. My TV has an optical audio out and my laptop AFAIK only has 3.5mm so please recommend something with optical audio. Thank you.
Hey guys, yet another try to record video in a live show... And again.. The audio of it comes so ****ty and distorted.
So i don't expect any solution from oneplus anymore. I even tried to take the microphone gain a little which didn't really helped so i guess it's just the mic isn't so good.
Any ideas how to get good audio in loud environments? I just don't think it's legit that an iPhone 4 can peform good in these kind of environments when the OPO (which is a better device a hundred times) cannot do such simple thing.
There are more than one available video recording apps on the play store that allow you to lvl the audio input whether it comes from the OPO mic or an external hooked up. I use a Zoom H1 with my OPO which has far superior performance for recording audio in loud environments. Plus I can hook in external LAV mics for interviewing

I would like to significantly improve the audio quality on live music video recordings shot with a Nexus 5X. With the iPhone, there were many purpose built condenser mic/interfaces that plugged in directly, but it seems that with Android, there is no such luck? So I need to buy a OTG USB interface/adapter and use a self powered USB mic? Is this true/accurate?
Can anyone recommend a mic that is small, preferably something that attaches to the phone itself? The Shure, Zoom and Rode mics for the iPhone are great I wish there was something like these products for Android devices.
