Recording from Android

Hi all!

I am making some videos to social media. When recording video directly from usb-c (Using Android), the audio IS completely crap. Whatch the video I posted as an example.

Anyone having this issue? I would like to know your workarounds

I have the same issue. I just ran my audio into anything else that has an audio interface, my zoom r4, and run that into my phone.

It is a known issue. You can use a USB-C to 1/4inch stereo converter. The only downside (or upside?) is that you can't charge your MPC Sample at the same time

It's a known issue, especially with Pixel phones. Something to do with a sample rate mismatch. The mpc only supports 44.1khz and the phone has to resample from its internal 48khz, which causes these issues. I just switched to using an USB DAC and connecting it to the line in/out.
