Recording mixes (mobile devices)

Recording mixes (mobile devices)

Hi there,

I was wondering if someone has some knowledge about recording mixes (straight from the record out) into the headphone plugs of the Iphone 5S? I’m looking for a simple app/tool who by which you can simple record a mix, and a cable to convert the mono sound in stereo recording (minijack to Tulp).

Regards Koen

You can’t convert mono sound into stereo.

The output signal of the DJM is stereo, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

Ye, but the phone can’t record in stereo

If you want to use your phone to record in stereo, you need to get a line input adapter for the lightning connector on the bottom of the phone, not the headphone jack. Something like this: Amazon.com Only problem is, these adapters are not cheap. You might as well get a stand alone portable digital recorder. You can probably find a used portable digital recorder for about the same price.

Hmm ok. Thanks for your input! Probably i’ll just bring along my Macbook Pro and a proper cable for now.

A new 13" MBP doesn’t have a line in in it either. You will need a usb sound card for it. The 15" MBP have a line in, and the older 13" o, but not the newer ones.

As far as I know the MBP (mine is from 2011), the headphone output can also be used as a line in input. But before using it on the road, I will test this at home. According to this topic: 13" MacBook Pro audio line in problem - Apple Community, the 2011 MBP’s were the last ones who had a dual function in/output.
