Topic: Recording on the iPhone

Just wanted to share my experience with an app I downloaded last week.  Sonoma Wireworks has  app called 4 Track, and, it has revived my writing, and original song development activity.  I have been waiting since 2009 to get an album finished, but for one reason or another, I have yet to do so.  Since last week, I have managed to use this app to track 6 songs that have been languishing, to the point of being pre production demos, so that other musicians can get an idea of the song.  The quality, for it being an iPhone is surprising.

This is a great tool, and it will  help me finally get my music done.

Re: Recording on the iPhone

What are you using for a mic/sound input? I've been looking into using an external mic in my iPod touch.

I would also be interested to know this as well.

It really is amazing what phones can do these days. Look forward to hearing some more of your work!

Re: Recording on the iPhone

Since its all acoustic, Ive been using the phone itself as a mic, its not terrible by any means, but certainly not condenser mike quality.

I have since started sending rough tracks to a drummer I met online who lives across the country, and he is using the rough ideas and the tempo markings to record and send a drum track for me to use as I develop it further.  Its been a lot of fun.
