External microphone while recording video - Desire HD General

Hello,
as you all know, the microphone of the Desire HD is terrible when having louder sounds.
i'm going on a motorcycle vacation next week and i would like to make movies in the mountains. Because of the wind, it records crappy sound.
So i want to plug in a microphone (or headset) to record the sound while having the microphone inside my jacket.
does anyone know a solution ? just plugging the handsfree in, does'nt work.

No it wont work. You would need an App to record from the input. Dont think there is any like that around from what I know

Is also not possible to make an app to force the usage of the headset mic.
since it works with calling. I don't care if i had to switch manually between headset mic and the normal setting.
or a app to control the input volume sinds it records to loud. (try recording in a pub)

Good news!
i found a app called LGcamera
it works great on the DHD with external mice

Record Streaming Audio

Anyone know how to record streaming audio.... like...I'm streaming radio off the net...and I want to record it thx
Well not that this is a lot of help, but you can record using the Note recorder or (my suggestion) using Sound Explorer which is a great MP3 recording device. This is in the case that you at least want to make notes of what you are hearing. If your in a quiet room the sound will record pretty well just by picking up what your radio is transmitting...
another likely theory to work (still have to do this myself) is to actually make a wire that plugs into the headphone jack and redirects the audio to come straight from the headphones into the mic. As for a software solution, there are none for the PPC that I know of. There are some for the PC, but thats not what your looking for.

Does a normal headphones disable the internal mic?

I just want to know, if you plug in a normal headphones (normal one, without mic, only stereo speakers) to the HD 3.5mm audio jack, does the internal mic in the HD still work?
Can you still answer phone calls without unplugging the headphones?
Does the headphones disable the internal mic?
The reason I ask is because I would like to know if I hook up the HD to the car aux input, will it work without adding an extra external microphone.
Thanks guys for helping answering this questions.

No, the mic works. The phone also rings when the headphones are plugged into it.
That's right. The microphone still work. I've been using wired headset to make calls. If it does't work, it would'nt have been possible to make such phone calls.
Thats nice to hear. But from how far away the microphone catches sounds?. If i use my stereo headphones, will the microphone be boosted, like in the speaker mode, when it can catch the voice even from the table, couple feet away?
It works Great in my car, i put it on myside [beside the GEAR]. but car speakers volume should not be very loud.

Is there a program to use BT headset as remote microphone spy?

Hi all....
I was thinking if is there a program for our Windows Mobile device wich can use the microphone of a bluetooth headset and simply listen to it, making it a ambient microphone spy ...
I don't have my bluetooth headset by me to test it out, but maybe you could use it as a microphone and record it to audio notes (or similar software). Or you could hide a 2nd phone that is connected to the bluetooth headset, call it, and listen in (greater range).

With audio notes I haven't tried... but calling another phone makes it expensive... so I wouldn't use it ...
No one knows?
I'm goung to try with audio notes...
But I was thinking if is there a way to listen in real time... That would be better !
That's hilarious that you want to be all 007. Are you a private investigator? This is an interesting puzzle to solve and I like puzzles.
I would recommend getting a cheap-o BT headset because they suck at cutting out noise anyway. Of course, you'll probably have to be within arms reach of the people you are trying to listen to. Then, use audio notes to capture the audio. Lastly, I would look for some software that will allow you to play around with the different ambient noise levels. I would try Audacity first because it's free and very robust with options.

TOUCH HD as RECORDER

Hi.!! There is an application that give me the possibility to use touch HD as a voice recorder.? i want save some university's lessons...can i do that with this phone.? any suggestions.?
notes can record just fine
though not sure if the mic in the headset
is sensitive enough you could tear the headset
apart and solver a better mic to the wires connecting
to the mic in the headset though
Of the times that I have used it to record speeches, I have found it to be good. The only problem is I had to put the phone next to the speaker. I did not try it with the mic on the headset though.
overally I'd recommend it for close contact (ha!) speaking.
Try "Vito Audio Notes". Works perfect.

Moto X Paired with USB Condenser Microphone For Audio Recording

So, I want to make audio recordings with my phone. Specifically recording music from a guitar amp. Our phones have native USB audio support. I am able to connect a USB condenser microphone directly to the phone using a USB to OTG cable.
The catch is that a condenser microphone requires phantom power and I don't know what kind of power output the phone has. The phone does generate enough power to power the lights on the microphone. It appears to be working , but the sound quality for anything I record is terrible. Does anyone know anything about a set-up like this? I can't be the only person who has tried this.... Would love to get this working properly.
Here is the microphone I am using http://http://www.amazon.com/CAD-U37-Condenser-Recording-Microphone/dp/B001AIQGUO?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
