This is an HPR episode 2020, if I'm entitled, using a smartphone and a microphone.
It is posted my first time posting Julian and is about one minute long.
The summary is, I talk about an app that I post the audio input of my smartphone into
my computer to record this show.

Hello citizen of the internet, my name is Julian and in my first show for HPR, I want to talk
about an app called Microphone.
This app is available for Android in the F3 repository, link is in the show notes.
All it does is sending the audio input from the microphone directly into the audio output.
This causes horrible feedback loops if the audio output happens to be the phone speakers.
But if you plug a mail to mail 3.5mm cable into your phone, and the other end into your
computer, you can use your smartphone as a microphone.
Actually, I'm using this right now to record this show with a velocity on my laptop.
The reasons for that are pretty simple.
I don't have enough free space on my phone to record a show with you record, and the
other is that I was curious if this app really works.
Well, actually there's not much more I could tell about this app.
It has no menu, no way to customize it, and as you can hear, no noise suppression or
whatsoever.
That's about it, thanks for listening.
