Simplify recording without sacrificing excellent audio quality
I use the Dolby On app on an iPad to record videos of myself playing. These are helpful to keep track of my progress over time, and sporadically sharing with family and friends.
I found this app as I was looking for alternatives to the limited recording capabilities of the Spark app, which cannot be used with an audio interface.
The Dolby On app takes the audio from external sources, when those are available. Thus, it is possible to record the audio from an audio interface. While other apps are limited to recording only from the device microphone, Dolby On picks up the audio automatically with no issues.
I use the app with the Blackstar Polar 2 audio interface, and the audio quality of the resulting videos is great with no noises.
One consideration is that the app does not allow to select specific audio input channels for recording. Instead, when detecting an audio source, the app uses channels 1 and 2 for recording in stereo. The signal from input one goes to the left channel and the signal from input 2 goes to the right channel. To simplify the process, I use a Y cable to split the guitar signal to connect it with both inputs.
The app is simple and easy to use. Sound enhancing features (EQ, noise reduction), and basic editing (trimming) provide good control. With all these features based on Dolby's audio expertise, it is amazing that this app is free.
The only feature I miss is the ability to "retake" a video in the middle of the recording.
