unfortunately it seems that only apple has gotten the recording algorithms right...bring an iphone into the club and it reproduces the bass very well. too bad i'm not an apple user
If you want professional quality recording, why not buy this instead?

What a shame! you are totally corrrect, my Z2 is exactly the same, I took some amazingly clear video in a club the other night, the camera captured the scene in low light so well shockingly good video BUT when I listened the next day the sound is totally distorted ruining the videos!
I downloaded a Sound meter app on my Z2 and the wifes Galaxy S5, side by side they both give completely different DB reading, The sony is WAY too high! if you make a sound the sound meter jumps right up, where are the Galazy S5 is more stable. Unfortunately i cant find any setting in the phone to change the microphone sensitivity. so the problem is a serious problem that we are stuck with! SUCKS!!
SONY really need to fix this with an update!
Agree but look at this video
KyleSforza said:

Yes you are right this add on microphone is a good option for planned recordings! But what if you are just out and about with just your phone, and want to video something, live singing, a party, disco. The sony Z2 can take awesome video but if its a loud environment or with a lot of BASS the sound will come through on the video completely distorted and impossible to listen. Sony need to do an update ASAP.
Here is a sample of the distorted audio. (shame, the video quality came out really nice the DJ was Plastic Funk live in Pattaya Thailand)
*** WTF, I cant post the youtube video showing the distorted audio because I am new to this forum. sucks! if you want to see it just search youtube for "Distorted Sony experia z2 microphone"

Anyone who have this? I am thinking about ordering one but if the problem is in the software is more problematic. If this makes recording at loud volumes way better it would be great!
Doomkernel allows to lower mic gain, that is why your recordings are ... over saturated.

The SIII for U.S variants has the S4 DAC. I recorded a video in an indoor concert/club recently and the audio quality sucks! There is too much bass in the audio making it crack/distort beyond! Is there any type of way to reduce mic gain? Has anyone tried recording with the headset plugged in? I heard that reduces the bass level a bit...
Voodoo will come to the SIII, but I hope it will come to the U.S models since it doesn't have Wolfson.
Try the LGcamera app, it's got a video recording feature that allows you to decide which microphone(s) and bit rates you want to use. Experiment with it

Have you ever recorded audio in a loud club/concert which did NOT have clipping and distortion? If so, I'd love to know what device it was.
A bit off topic of your use case, but I've always been of the opinion that shows are loud to prevent piracy of the show, because being up front it's more than loud enough to damage your hearing.

iPhone can handle loud environments without issue.
The Galaxy SII also had this same problem, there was either none, or very bad automatic gain control. All loud audio was recorded very distorted. I'd love to find a fix for this!

This is an Android problem, not a Samsung one. Basically the hardware drivers are extremely primitive. I am a musician and therefore look for audio apps all the time, and there just aren't any because Android's audio is just too primitive. There is NO way to adjust the gain down, only up. If you don't believe me, Google audio gain and Android and you'll find a lot of stuff. Latency is a also huge issue, and that's why apps like Songify don't exist.
I wanted to record my band practices with my phone too. It's impossible. I use an iPod touch with an I rig mike instead.
It's really a shame Google just doesn't care about audio, ICS fixed nothing.

First of all, I took the earphones protective plastic off them and put it to protect the camera, so don't know if the quality got affected, don't think so.
After 40 sec after the intro in the first video, the sound quality gets better.
The sound is better than live actually in the first example at least, it was way too loud in there, I didn't hear that well live as in the video lol.

Well actually the video isn't *that* bad, especially the parts where that crap blue light isn't the primary light that's shining. Audio quality of course was very good.
I think the recording turned out quite good, I've seen live shows with more professional cameras that did a worst job so the device you used really wasn't all that bad at all, for a mobile device.
:good:
Yeah,the lights were flashing like crazy, I think if I would've been closer it might have turned out great. But nonetheless the sound is awesome.
Had anyone else recorded live music with the m8 or any other phone for that matter?

The plastic will definitely affect quality, how much can vary. It is mass produced plastic with a very high tolerance for variances. It will be thicker in areas & thinner on others, on the order of microns probably, but could be enough to cause distortion. Hard to tell in the lighting how or if it was affected. As other mentioned, the audio is great.
Hey Guys,
I no its against the rules, but how can I make up my mind other than this...
I have an m7 and for me the main things are :
- speaker quality (m8 should be better right? deeper sounds, louder etc..)
- Camera (lack of ois I find disturbing)
- Mic quality???
I recorded this with m7 next to a f..huge speaker and the bass came out just right... will it be the same for the m8?

Well lets take a simple real situation. I very often take video of my son, who does karate sport. Taking steady video of my son with M7 preserving stable image on any distance while he accomplishes performance is very easy. Even on big screen pictures looks very stable. Shooting video under mentioned conditions with non OIS camera is headache. Even watching video on 12" screen size looks disgusting. It is very shaky. Having watched many video samples from M8, I'm really disappointed, this feature being dismissed.

Hi all
Did not come across any threads about this yet, surprisingly!
I was recording video out in a nightclub, and was very disappointed to find that the music sounded horrible. Never had such problem on my HTC one when recording at concerts or clubs.
Here is the link of the video, I uploaded on youTube

Otherwise, the OnePlus has been awesome so far!
Trance family, you listen to Markus Schulz? Love trance! Sucks about the sound, you on stock app?
Sound quality in general when it comes to recording nightclubs/gigs/concerts are pretty bad with the bass etc etc.
Not to mention "Turn It Up" is a song that involves a lot of bass and drops.
Try it in a closed atmosphere like at home and test the quality of the sound.
Ensure audio codec is AAC as well.

haha yeh man love markus Schulz! one of my fav trance DJs
yeh stock camera app, running 33R stock and Franco 20 kernel.
I noticed this as well. I really doesn't take a lot to distort the audio with OPO (and surprisingly when I had my Samsung Note 2 and ran a CM based rom I had this problem as well, using stock samsung camera / rom not a problem).
Not sure if this is phone related or just the camera app/rom combo.
I do have a sub in my car but I have recorded clearly with my old Note 2 but OPO it distorts like a mofo. It's quite embarrassing.

I wanted to make the switch from the m7 too,but i do record sometimes at concerts and clubs...And the htc m7 does this perfect.
So this is a no go for me this oneplus one,A pitty):
The early m7s had dual membrane mics specifically for recording in very loud concert environments. Some supply issue came up with the manufacturer and they had to stop supplying to htc because of nokia.

Ah familiar issue.
Went to a party last week and recorded some videos, as soon as the bass drops you only hear crackling noises on the video.
Friend recorded with his iphone and the recorded audio sounded a LOT better.
I also tried to cover the microphone to see if that helped but it made no difference.

Most likely a ****ty mic on the oneplus, nothing to do with the software.
HTC one uses unlicensed mic from Nokia,which is far superior.

Maybe it's too much to ask for DSEE-HX
But, seriously, sounds like sh*t on headphone mode
much worse than stock 4.4.4
and speaker is worse as well

Very soft speaker and i am yet to test the headphones. We need to wait on some mods like dreamingonmusic. To be honest the Z1 never had good sound quality anyway.

Yeah never been good without mod, known to be worse than Xperia Z
Big drop as i used to use Dreamingonmusic
but 4.4.4 without mod seems still better than 5.0
I feel that sony just copy and paste 90% files from Z2 and Z3 690 so..... not well calibrated
Honestly, I find that music with headphones sounds great. I just make sure to turn on studio surround sound and adjust the equalizer based on what headphones I use.

Using EX650AP, u?
It's funny how I made a post asking about the sound quality on the Q&A section. I guess no one visits the the Q&A section anymore

No need for an apology. At least you got the attention of others for the same problem I'm wondering about.
Now isn't there anyway we can increase the loudness of the speaker? Maybe even the clarity too. Because the Audio mods for Kitkat are able to do that. I'm sure we can do the same on Lollipop
So…

My friend in the dreamingonmusic team is trying out to make mods soon, really looking forward for it
If no good mods are made I am probably going back to 4.4.4 just for the music.

I actually found the headphone volume is lowered too, maybe tends to be a bit more bass by its decrease of clearity. Yeah the speaker sucks and suffer feature loss x_x
Low volume isnt problem for me as i dont need high volume, just give me more clearity and resolution!!!!!!
Here's a quote from me on the Q&A Section:

Updated to Lollipop yesterday. Of course I'm using Sony's official update and not CM12. So yeah I didn't bother to.watch any videos or listen to music because I updated my phone very late at night. But today, I realised the Audio seems broken. How is it broken? Well, I play a YouTube video at max volume. Seems fine but a little soft for being at max. As soon as I drag it down just a bit, it's like impossible to hear anything. When it reaches half volume, it feels like the minumum volume and the minimum volume feels like it's muted. Anyone have the same problem?
Tl;dr: Can't hear jack **** on near max volume

I'm guessing you guys are facing the same issues? The speakers are WAY too soft. The difference in volume from Max to 3/4 is just too big. Too quiet on 3/4 and just average on max.
