Hello, i have a question.. You can put a headset on the x1 with the 3,5 mm jack so it has a line in? Is there a programme so that i can record on the memorystick.. The thing what`s in my head, when i am with my friends and we make muzic that i put my x1 on a dj mixer and record the mix on my x1, is that possible.. Thnx..
Sorry for my very bad english...
I don't think 3,5 mm jack = Line in. It's a line out...
You can record on memory stick in Notes app pretty well,
but only through inbuilt mic I think....
thats right, the 3,5mm jack is an output. you can only record through the mic
and the x1 using micro sdhc, not the sony memory stick
how about trying to connect a clip on mic to the headphone jack?

The included headset provides a line in through the mic. So maybe something could be rigged and programmed to take at least a mono line in on the X1? Don't know of any apps that record from the headset though. Even if this were possible, it would probably sound like crap ya know.

I wonder whether somebody has tried to connect a high-quality mic to the mda2 in order to improve recording quality?
Can the device record with two mics in stereo?
Is the plug avalable seperately?
Thanks
V
i'm pretty sure that the mic is mono
Rudegar, thanks. You are right. the mic is mono.
My goal is to improve the sound quality of the recording.
That's exactly why I asked,
"Can the device record with two mics in stereo?"
(Provided one can indeed connect two mics)
Regards,
V
when the headset which include mic is connected the speaker and mic in the device are hardware muted
and cant be used at all
I'll try it again in other words (Sorry for not being precise the first two times. :roll: English is not my native language).
Goal: I need to do quality sound recordings in stereo.
Idea: I would like to connect external SHURE SM58 mics to the mda2.
Can the device record with two mics in stereo?
Is the headset 2,5mm plug avalable seperately?
Thanks
V
yes you can buy a 3.5mm to 2.5mm jack conveter just make sure it also bring out the mic some only do the lineout
still not sure about what you mean with recording in stereo
the mic in the headset is mono
and the mic in the device cant be used at the same time as the mic in the headset
there is no way you can get it to record anything in stereo
unless you can find some SD audio grapper card
you can record in mono and make it joined stereo with an audio program joined stereo is just making both channels play the sound
still not sure about what you mean with recording in stereo

"recording in stereo" I mean recording with two external microphones at once.
Pls. forget the headset. Please forget the internal mic.
Let's explain it that way:
In order to record in decent quality you traditionally need :
2 mics
A stereo tape recorder
Result:
Tape with 2 channels
(This is stereo BTW)
Now my idea:
replace recorder with mda2
2mics
MDA2
Result:
Wav or mp3 with 2 channels
To set the scene:
1st: Throw away the headset
2nd: dump the internal mic (or at least ignore it altogether!)
"How can one connect 2 mics to the MDA2 in order to record a 2 channel (stereo) wav or MP3?"
Please! Does anybody understand my question? If yes could you native english speaker please help to rephrase it? Thanks
the jack connector in the xda support 2 line out
and 1 line in
there is no way you can connect 2 mics to 1 mono mic in
much in the same way you cant connect a 5.1 surround system to your xda and play movies with surround it have 2 lines out and 5.1 require 6 lines out
same thing with input 1 line == mono
no way you can connect 2 mics

Thank you!
That was the answer I needed.
But it does not mean, that I am too happy with it.

I'm looking for replacement for Magician's (wired) headset coz I think the one that comes with it sucks (low audio quality).
Anyone can suggest good alternatives with good MP3 quality (enough bass,...) and also as the phone's handsfree.
Thanks a lot.
If you are handy with a soldering iron, cut off that stupid pair of earbuds and solder on your favorite headset (that's what I did) or you can buy 3rd party adapters. If you solder on new headphones, don't forget to get some of that really cool heat shrink stuff to put over the wires, it turns out very professional looking and very strong.
Hmm...nice idea.
Unfortunately i'm not good at soldering.
So it seems i'm stuck with alternative to find a good earphone+hansfree combo....
SOny Ericsson p900 headset
5x times sound quality, + only one with a microphone that fits the 2.5mm plug. I searched long and hard to get this answer as i cannot solder too
this headset is not a stereo one, rigth ?
There are some adapters that have a built in mic and you plug the 3.5 headhones of your choice into it. There is also a small adapter that is just for audio 2.5-3.5. It is true that the Sony P800-900 headsets are compatible with the Jam. Unfortunately I have yet to hear original earphones that are acceptable to me. I can't remember where I bought it, but the adapter with a built-in mic and 3.5 headphone jack is probably what you are looking for. I use one in my car. Maybe somone has a link for you?

But in this case, is there any high quality 3.5mm earphone that also work as handsfree for the Jam?
This solution uses the internal mic of the PPC Phone so you can use any high quality headset from your local hi-fi store.
Can you confirm that this doesn't mess up the stereo or do anything else weird?
I found it! This is the adapter that I bought for my Sony P800 years ago(works with Magician). You can use it to plug into your home stereo, favorite headphones and it even has a volume control. Mainly I use it in my car. I use it to plug my Jam into my car stereo and sometimes I use it to plug in the earbud for one ear wired headset communication. ENJOY!

I have that. I don't like it too much since it feels very fragile (including the thin wire) and the fact that it isn't a simple straight wire means it snga everywhere.
I only use that adapter in the car. It is good for people that can't make their own headset by soldering. I made a custom headset from Koss headphones and a Sony handsfree. That baby sounds really good, and I'm picky about sound quality.
Does the mic work? Can you accept and end calls using the button?
Thanks,
K
Yes, the above adapter works exactly as the original handsfree headset (+ volume control) except that you have to plug in a normal 3.5 plug stereo headphones. If there are other models out there without the reel thingy, I haven't found it.
Hello all~ can anybody teach me how I can use a 3.5mm mono or stereo microphone with my Atom to record?
I have tried the internal mic but the recording quality is not good.
I have also tried to use a convert adapter (a 3.5mm plug to 2.5mm jack for a mp3 player) but the mic didn't work.
Many thanks!
You have to option to take a orginal headset with a mic, get the cabel that goes to the mic part of it and solder on a own connection, but be warned that the impedans is probebly wrong so if you can record, its almost sertian that its at o very low volym.
sorry for the typos.
I'm curious to know if sound will be passed to the HTC USB aswell as the 3.5" jack ?
I use the E100 adapter all the time as its nice and simple to skip a track and make/answer a call when out and about.
Dont fancy pulling out the HD to skip a track or answer a call all the time
Nogs
**Bump**
Nobody has any idea ?
I don't the answer to your question, but the answer to your problem is bluetooth. My headphones change volume, track, play/pause and answer the phone. Music resumes after the call. This is using Motorola S805 headphones, WM6 and Mortplayer.
Sound is via jack only, but indeed Bluetooth is a great solution.
Cheers for your replies....

Doesn't the mini USB port need to support sound in order for a wired hands-free headset to work? I'd be really surprised if they a) required a bluetooth headset for hands-free or b) required two jacks (3.5mm and miniUSB) in order to use wired hands-free headset.
If the 3.5 jack has more contacts than just the normal stereo then maybe they have a wired headset that works just from the 3.5mm. It will be interesting to see how they've done it.
It is confusing to me, since the few previewers reported a dedicated audio jack and USB only for charging/data (ActiveSync). HTC in their 16/9 press release do mention the audio jack in the press release, but in the feature list it is not quoted, but there is mention of ExtUSB, but no mention of audio on it. On other HTC press releases for previous models ExtUSB is usually mentioned with audio next to it. Well I guess it is wait and see
Update: This French review in English also says audio jack also for handsfree http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aiw5PsQ50Uc
Check the review on GSMArena - the headset works off the audio jack, so no need to have audio via ExtUSB...
Mmm The Earphones supplied are 4 pole, Earth, Mic, Left and Right.
So disapointed if the Ext USB doest carry sound too... Will make the whole Car mount job look untidy but worst is that you will have to take your HD out of your pocket to skip tracks when using the headset... Sorry thats just pants !!!

Re in car intergration and control, I like this gadget very much.
http://us.kensington.com/html/14484.html
LiquidAUX™ Bluetooth® Car Kit
It comes with a separate wireless remote control that you can mount anywhere in your car, and the sound outputs via 3.5mm jack, so you can connect it easily to your stereo. In addition it auto-connects very well, meaning its really plug and play. It also comes with a separate USB port for charging, meaning you can still charge your phone via USB while this occupies the cigarette lighter.
Surur
Sorry to bring this back up but are we totally sure that the mini usb doesn't carry audio? I haven't been able to get it to work on my car hands free kit but maybe i'm missing something??
If it doesn't i think HTC have misssed a trick.
I've tried with a couple of audio headsets, always says "not supported, disconnect".

Thats the same message i get, what a shame!
Is this a hardware issue or software? If software we should be able to do so,ething about it?
Hi,
Is there a way to connect a stereo microphone to a HTC Touch Pro ?
Just like the ones you see for an iPod, for instance.
If possible, what software to record from it ?
Thanks,
Alfred
no, the Touch Pro has only a mono audio in. As audio in adaper you can use the "HTC YC A300" or you prepare a headset cable with a mic plug....

what do you like to do with this solution? I use the Raphael + the "YC A300" adapter in combination with "Virtual Recorder" (http://www.4pockets.com/product_info.php?p=80) and/or "Meteor" (http://www.4pockets.com/product_info.php?p=82) from 4Pockets as mobile Recording device for a small radio station...
I have a Boss Micro BR with external stereo microphone.
I see that there is a lot of stereo microphones for MP3 players/recorders.
To move less hardware each time, it would be great if I could use my Raphael with such a software and a stereo microphone to record rehearsals of my band.
Maybe if some of these software developpers manage a way to use an USB stereo microphone ?
Don't you have latency or loss of time when recording with the Raphael ? For instance, I can't find a metronome software that don't hesitate sometime because of the background system activity or whatever.
Latency is no proble, for me - I need it only for voice recordings (interviews for the radio station). Check Meteor - this application has a metronom function too (cool application with a 12-channel mixer and cuting room - it's a trail version on 4pockets.com)
