Field Recorder v11.9

Our app Field Recorder makes your phone a perfect alternative for an additional recording device: lightweight and always with you

With extensive features like a recording equalizer and limiter, it's the best choice for anyone who wants high-quality audio recordings with built-in microphones, external microphones, or USB sound cards

The audio parameters can be adjusted in more ways than with any other audio recorder. And they can be saved as presets and switched between in a flash

Immediately after recording, you can e.g. send a concert recording to friends, upload a podcast to the web, or an interview to a radio station, or archive a meeting…

Use the full potential of your microphones: Record band rehearsals, voice notes, lectures, dictation, monitoring, eavesdropping, phone calls, sound recordings, ambience, snoring, animal sounds, audio logs…

Functions

Field Recorder also has pre-defined presets for typical tasks like dictation, listening, concerts, phone calls… and can save your own presets.

Full money refund is available upon request. Test whether the recording is working properly. Audio files do not need to be created: Simply press the pause button to switch to record standby mode, and a potential file name will appear. The date and time, level meter, and monitor settings will work. If you activate "Monitor", headphones prevent feedback.

Test presets that you select by tapping "Factory". You might find a preset in our cloud that's a good fit for your device. Then test the input configurations from "In:MicA" to "In:Raw".
