Hello all,
I use the asus transformer prime to record HD video at my friend wedding, and the the sound quality is really bad.
It looks like the prime didn't normalize the sound while recording.
Does anyone notice this?
not trying to be a downer, but what kind of sound quality did you expect? You'd need an outboard sound recording device to get any sort of decent sound quality at all. a Zoom h1 may be your best bet
I recorded videos around Christmas time and it picked up sounds very well.

I am not expecting any like HD sound, but at least It should normalize the sound wave.
I recorded at the same place with my iPhone 4, and the sound is normalized so that I didn't get red zone sound. Video sounds on iPhone 4 is way better on the Prime in my experience. Please test and share your inputs
This happens to me as well. I took a video of just one person talking into the camera, and the audio playback sounded very poor. When filming again on an iPhone 4, the sound was fine. That's reasonable, though; a phone should have a decent microphone.
Just wondering what you guys think of it? I go to a lot of concerts and music festivals and the video quality on the note is superb. However, the sound from the video is horrible. The one thing that me and my friends all agree upon is the video sound recording on the iphone is better than any phone out there. The note simply cannot handle loud sounds, particularly really loud bass. The sound on the whole video is just off and it sounds like the microphone is in direct wind. Dont get me wrong, I love the note and I am an android fanboy, however I think this is an area which the iphone dominates. What do you guys think about the sound recording quality? Is there anyway to fix this through software? hardware?
never found a problem with audio from video recordings. few weeks ago i was filming a drift event at a local track and sound came out fine with all the loud noises going on.
Speaking of, do you guys have any YouTube links of vids with your note?
I just can't seem to live with out a removable storage, and I have been leaning in the notes direction.
I am just worried about video, and pic quality with the note...I had a 4g galaxy s and the pics were awful.
Sorry if I am hijacking.
What's your honest.opinions about vid quality?

the playback of audio recorded with a video is going to bad if you are recording anything with a lot of bass or any high dB sounds that are above the microphones ability to capture. These phones use a microphone thats really just a small speaker, when loud sounds are being emitted and your trying to capture them they can ofter "bottom out" the microphone so that all you hear is loud static distortion or if the bass is really heavy, nothing at all.

I think the video quality is awesome on this phone. I haven't watched them on any external devices though, my opinion is purely off of viewing the videos off the phone.
As far as the drift meet you went to, I'm pretty sure the note can handle the sounds of screeching tires, I am mainly talking about BASS. I understand that almost all devices have a certain limit until the microphone can no longer handle the strong bass. The sound gets distorted, and you can't hear anything else. All I am saying is that somehow the iphone is able to handle strong bass at a concert even when you are standing pretty close to the stage. Anyone else experience the distorted sound on their note?
I have personally experienced this and it must be due to the different build qualities of the microphone. Is it possible to attach an external microphone via the headphone jack and use that to record video sound rather than using the one built into the phone? that would make a huge difference IMO

http://youtu.be/N06GsbGyh28 shot this 2 weeks ago, first time messing with video on the phone, i was impressed by the clarity of both picture and sound, just need a dern zoom feature while filming
also not sure why your expecting amazing quality sound from recording a live performance, no matter what phone if ur close to the speakers your not going to get non distorted sound, ive owned every iphone and never heard clear quality sound after going back and watching vids i took at partys and such, i do belive i saw something on engadget the other day about a better quality mic u can plug into the headphones jack
http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/31/irig-mic-cast-hands-on/ well its for idevices but im sure there has to be something similar for android
I was just thinking about this before bed last night. I was looking at some recently shot kareoke videos from my note. The audio quality is absolutely horrendous. Like...disappointing bad.
My atrix was was leaps and bounds better. Was able to handle (and reproduce) bass just fine. Never distorted the audio like the note does. From concerts (rock mind you) to kareoke, anything...I guess its an unfortunate con ill have to live with.

I know exactly what you mean, in terms of capturing sound at, say...a concert. It is overpowered. I've heard that one way to tackle this problem is to put tape, or a finger, over the mic hole when recording.
Here's a vid I took when I saw The Black Keys a cpl months ago. I even wrote in the description that it's a shame the sound is crappy...

I am not expecting amazing sound quality, just good enough so that it doesnt sound like crap. Obviously microphones on phones have their limits, but as I have stated, and as others in this thread have stated, the note is pretty bad at recording sound. My girlfriend has an iphone and all of my friends have iphones, and trust me, the sound recording is much better on it. Still love my Note though, best phone ever!
I seen rammstein and just like the others said.. Very loud sounds makes the audio sound very muffled and hard to hear.. I wonder if I had the the recording volume set halfway. If it would of sounded better?
Intro rammstein:

I can tell you this, its way better than HTCs Video playback. Their sound quality is low.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke

That's sad. Because I can't imagine anything worse than the note... makes me miss my atrix.

I found a solution by connecting the ear set of the phone and using it`s mic to rec sound. At levels as high as 110db that i tested (in a consert)
Sound quality was audible enough. So thats my pov on this subject. You should try it.
Is no one else noticing how thin and bassless the audio sounds when recording a video on the GS3? I don't own one yet, but every single time i watch a video the audio results are the same.. I sure hope this is just a bug and not what to expect from the mic for video recording? If you check phone arena there's a comparison with the camera of the s3 to like 5 other phones, they all have much better sound during video recording...
You can see how all the other phones have a much bassier sounding recording, espically for voices.. I'll concede that for 'wind' noise having less bass can be helpful, i'd rather see this as an 'option' to turn on or off rather than just have 0 bass the entire time you own the phone.
I've seen it rarely mentioned here but this is a major let down to me, having FANTASTIC video quality but really lackluster audio.
yepo me too i have only just discovered by putting it on the tv via the sd card the sound is very tinny..
yep!!! the sound sucks! I was very excited recording a video of my K&N filter and OH CRAP!!!!
Currently I have a Samsung GS3 and I've been thinking about picking up an HTC One. I go to a lot of concerts and one of the major issues I have with the GS3 is the terrible audio quality when recording loud music. I know I'm not going to get studio quality sound when recording with a phone, but I'd at least like to be able to make out the song - this is not possible with the GS3 because any time there is loud bass, it distorts so badly that the entire recording is unlistenable. So my question is this: Has anyone recorded a loud rock concert with the HTC One? If so, how was the quality? If anyone has a youtube link to a concert they recorded, I would be very grateful. TIA.
From my experience, the audio recording quality is pretty good compared to my old Galaxy Note. Here's one at a club.

I don't think there's any distort in the audio but you can listen and hear for yourself.

Yeah that sounds way better than the GS3. Thanks

Hi there, just some real life experience.
yesterday I was at a reggae concert (the skints from UK...check them out) with very high bass volume. but generally there was a good powerful sound. So I took some video with my beloved ONYX. I was together with a friend of mine that took some videos using an iPhone 6.
SO.
MY video-> completely distorted sound. I mean you cannot hear anything but a distorted sound. terrible. really terrible
My friend video: perfect. no distortion at all clean and crisp sound.
I know the iPhone is THE flagship phone so every spec is at its top. but: do you think is possible to add some sort of frequency cut by software to our 1+X?

The mic on the OPX cannot record such low frequencies (bass). It will result in distortion. Use the mic on your earphones when recording to get decent audio quality.
Yes, this is one of the biggest downsides of the OPX, unfortunately...
