I had to look mine up on the system config, it’s a REVVL 7 - the carrier branded it and (therefore?) - came with much of what the others costing 2-3x’s more offer, but had to read allot to find out.
- I remember why I had to install an Audio App - I’m not a fan the Google which then, like a virus takes over (for me anyway - I got stories lol!). So, could not “turn on” any of their stuff and did as explained. I’ve had some collaborators that recorded on an Apple with some app, sitting under two chairs and a heavy comforter (for silence) in their closet that sound better than most in formal home studios lol! - it’s just amazing. And, they just click buttons just “because” lol!
When I do “record”, having used or tried to use most known DAW’s I stick with Audacity (which shocks many for some reason) - since I can record with two separate Mics, and “Render” each as a *separate sound source as if recorded separately, separate tracks, while singing and playing - no dub for the 1st pass, 1st take. It’s a very manual app, esp the older versions - almost like recording with “Tape”, so to speak, (real multi track, or at least 2-track).
Anyway, and nonetheless, for all that effort, time - “this” (phone recording), IMO ? really who can hear the difference for a bounce track.
- No, I don’t get the far L/R separation, however when wifey or mom (kidding) listens - it’s all just so fantastical anyway
omg! And, us regular folks like “here” are listening for other stuff anyway in a “demo”, etc. You know what I mean.
Years ago, the phone, or a remote type unit was all I ever used - I capture more stuff this way versus “setting up” with 2 mics at a daw. The phones, or this one, I have to be no less then 3 ft away or it “overloads” - which to me is amazing and not sound like “down the hall” like it used to - get full signal saturation, so to speak. (I discovered Phone Holders and can clamp them to anything to sit in front of, chair back, old camera tri-pod, etc. if want to get “fancy”.)
Yes, BandLab has some real ez overlays that will do the minimal stuff and export to any format I’d use. But, I’ll stop there or get long on stuff no one needs to hear about from me lol! We all got our own ways!
Anyway, hahh, “Red River Valley”, omg, I remember being 6yo and singing maybe that and “Row, row, your boat”, etc., in school, never thought I’d one day record it. But, even Dylan worked that story into a track Red River Shore I think it was - the stuff I like of his, most never hear of, like others that I like.
