Recorder native App

Is there any way to download or share recordings from the Mudita Recorder App? I use it quite often, and I just noticed that it is not possible to export recordings from my phone or access them in Mudita Center. I couldn’t find the recordings in the Files folder either.
If this is not possible, please recommend a lightweight FOSS app. Thanks.

One more question for the Mudita specialists. Why is the sound quality of the recordings so poor? I downloaded Fossify voice recorder to test it out, and the quality is incomparable. Why is that?

When I connect my MK with my Mac via the apps “OpenMTP” or “Android File Transfer” I find the recordings in the folder “Recordings”. Mudita Center doesn’t show this folder.

I also noticed that the app seems to be restricted to a noise-suppressing, voice-optimized codec. This renders the tool unusable for capturing a musical ideas, and even capturing natural-sounding speech. While this may save space, i feel that a recorder app should be relatively broadband and do little in the way of audio and data compression. If a user wishes to download a tool specifically for compressing voice recordings, they can easily find one. In contrast, the Apple iOS voice memo application takes this flat transparent approach (disregarding the very flattering multiband compression/limiting). It is a powerful, simple, elegant recording tool that is widely praised for this reason.

@Little-User Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. I will pass it on to our team.

Admittedly I’m no expert, but based on my limited testing both iOS Voice Memos and the Kompakt’s Recorder use 64kbps AAC-LC compression for the audio with only a slight variation in sample rate - admittedly the mic on the Kompakt is not super high fidelity, but I don’t think the codec is the issue.

@ArmchairSetup That’s why I couldn’t comment either. Waaaay above my knowledge of audio files :slight_smile: That’s why I passed it on to the team & asked for them to comment. I will return once they reply.

I find recordings in direct cable on Windows PC:
This PC\Kompakt\Internal shared storage\Recordings (filename.m4a)

I’m interested to hear their reply! I did a brief deep dive on audio codecs when I was trying to figure out the best way to encode music for the Kompakt and the whole high fidelity audio world is fascinating
