RECORDING with 5g ipod

Has anyone been able to record with the new ipod? Is there anything out there to record with? I want to use it to record rehearsals and gigs.

I believe that Griffin Technology's iFM has recording capability and supports the 5G iPod.
I have yet to purchase or test this product, however.

Audio recording with new iPod

Looking at the specs for the "enhanced" fifth-generation iPod, I see no "voice memos" in the "extras" index. Does this mean this new edition of iPod no longer has the ability to record audio with an external mic?

Is it at all possible to voice record with the new ipod?
Yes, it's possible. The roadblock at the current moment is that no recording accessories have been developed and released yet.
This thread has a lengthy discussion on voice recording:

Recording with your iPod

iPods are brilliant little machines, but I wish they supported recording. As an audio engineer who does on-site recording, I'm totally frustrated at the lack of options when it comes to recording set-ups. If someone wants to record something with 4 or 5 channels, I have to schlep my computer, monitor, preamps, and audio interface down to the session so I can record it. Even the hard-disk based recorders are either unprofessional & gimmicky or just frickin' huge (like the Alesis HD24 -- you can't monitor with it without a mixer!!). If it's only a two-track job, I could get off the hook by using a DAT machine, but then I waste a lot of time having to re-import the audio back at the studio. I just want to be able to walk into a room and record good audio on a small device. Is that too much to ask?
iPods are fully digital, they are highly portable, and they have lots of hard drive space. Wouldn't it be brilliant if you could hook up a small audio interface (firewire or USB) that had decent preamps in it and be able to record multiple tracks? I would be in heaven. Even being able to record 2 tracks at 48khz 16 bit would blow DAT recording out of the water because I wouldn't have to transfer anything.
I know 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation iPods could use Linux to do this -- http://ipod.hackaday.com/entry/1234000147025394/
but what about the newer ones? Does anyone have information about this type of capability on the current iPods? I'm salivating here... chomping at the bit... and no one seems to be developing anything.

That would be excellent!!!!!!!!!!! But you know what would be better????? If my iPod didn't erase my pictures that I just added. Do you know how to fix this problem?? I added 128 pics and then went to add 100 more and iPod told me it was deleting my 1st 128 I had already added then it had the nerve to add the next 100?:?#$%$%$##^ I don't get it! Just venting sorry....John

New ipod 60GB can you record with it?

Hi,
I have a new 60GB ipod. Can I record, by pluging a mic into the headphone jack? If I can record with the ipod, do i need to download some software onto my ipod? Where are the settings, to start recording?
Thanks

You can't just plug in any mic.
Here are a couple of options for now...

How do i transfer videos i record on my ipod to my computer

How do I transfer my videos that I've recorded with my ipod to my computer?

There are several ways, but the easiest way would be through dropbox. Its a free app and gives you the ability to transfer files to a server and can be accessed by ANY computer device that has internet. There is a limit of 2G of storage. There is a paid option to get more room. You can move the file(s) this way and if you need more room, just remove the transferred file and continue on. The 2G is at any one time, not how much you transfer.
There are a lot more options for Dropbox that you can check out. Great service. Well, bonus on your part. I have not had a reason to apply on a ipod so I checked on the site and yes it does work on an ipod.

What size is a video file recorded with ipod touch 4g

just would like to know about what size would a one minute video recorded with the touch be, the same for a picture taken with it. so i have an idea of which size ipod i should get. of course, i'd like the 64gb, but right now i have a 32gb 1st gen touch loaded with 650 songs, 10 movies, photos and apps. it still has 18gb available.

Thanks, it would be safe to guess that a picture wouldn't be more than 3 MB. So, I would think that for what I'll be using an iPod, another 32gb should be enough as long as I download the files to a computer periodically.

Audio line in while recording with ipod touch

Looking at buying a 5th Gen touch to record local basketball games. Need the ability to record the audio live broadcast into my live video of the game so I am wondering if I can use the video camera of the touch and record a seperate audio track with the video being recorded with a line in option. I have used a sd camcorder with a line in capability playing the local radio station audio as I record but dont know it this can be done with a ipod touch. I could use the camera app or imovie app to record but not sure if separate audio track is possible with them or will it just record from the mic of the ipod touch?

You can connect a mic to the iPod via the headphone jack and that mic will be used by the video app you use for the video camera on the iPod. I do not remember if the built-in mic gets cut off when yo do that so you may have to cover the mic hole on the iPod.

Can I record voice notes/memo with my ipod video ?

You need one of the iPod-compatible microphones, you'll get more information on this page: iPod: Recording voice memos

Recording on the iPOD with video

I am still not sure how to record on my new iPOD with video. I would appreciate your suggestions.

According to iLounge, XtremeMac and Belkin have developed devices that allow you to run a microphone from the iPod's dock connector. From the initial information it sounds like you will be able to connect any microphone with a 3/4" plug and record using the iPod voice recording functionality. The products should be ready for sale in the next few months.
Although this is a great addition to the iPod, I still wish that Apple hadn't limited the sample rate to 44.1KHz...

Recording live music with video iPod...

I tried using my video iPod to record a live music show and was very disappointed with the results. I purchased a MicroMemo digital audio recorder and used a set of stealth mics I've used for years with my portable MiniDisc recorder.
The iPod doesn't allow you to set recording levels and I think that was the problem. The recording was WAY oversaturated and virtually unlistenable. I tried using Audacity to edit the file, but I was unable to fix the oversaturated recording.
Can anyone advise me? Thanks in advance!

Hi Bill,
I've used plugins in apps such as Pro Tools plugins to clean up
recordings of lectures. Other good audio software
that allow you to filter a sound file include Cubase
, MacFOH ,
SoX .
Thanks for the suggestion, Ed, but my recording is SO oversaturated that it can't be salvaged by anything. When you look at the recording in any sound editor, the top is severely clipped. You can't do anything to restore what isn't there to begin with, and that's the top of the waveform.
Here's
a list of other open source audio projects at
GNU.
Nice list! Thanks for that!!!
Good luck!
Ed
I did get some help from XTremeMac's tech support. Sharon Rivera from that company wrote this:
] The way to get true sound is through the line in setting with an
] external powered source.
It turns out the battery box (9V) on my Core Sound stealth mics means my mics are powered by an external source. All I have to do next time is use the "line" setting instead of the "mic" setting on the MicroMemo.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Are there any voice recorder adapters that work with the ipod touch?

I have an IPod Touch and am starting school in august. Are there any voice recorders that work with the IPod touch? I know there are some that work with the others but any info would help! Thanks

All ipod microphone adapters should work!

A session could not be started with the ipod

My ipod touch 3 won't sync. I get a message that says "itunes could not back up the ipod "xxx" because a session could not be started with the ipod." I tried the recommendation of going to edit-->preferences-->devices and deleting the 'back up' file, but there IS no back up file. I've updated my security software. I've run the diagnostic for syncing and it said it passed. I've shut off and restarted my ipod. Not sure what else to do. Don't really want to restore to original settings.

I had this problem and found the solution (for me anyway). After looking in Logs I found a lot of "could not create file in All Users/Lockdown". On this XP computer it is here (and hidden):
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple
So I moved the files in the Lockdown folder out of there. Then I got another error about the "pairing record missing" and searching that, found to move the .plist files out of the Preferences directory (all of the above with iTunes shut down i.e. not running of course). These were located here:
C:\Documents and Settings\Joanne\Application Data\Apple Computer\Preferences
Then I launched iTunes and all was well again. Maybe you can just delete the .plists out of Preferences, I dunno.
Hope this helps you or anyone else searching on this somewhat maddening problem. I encountered the trouble upon updating iTunes to 10.5 and then trying to sync my iPod Touch v4.3.1. The backup has to work of course before I can update to iOS 5.0.

How can I download to my pc a conversation recorded in my iPod Touch using the voice notes??

How can I download to my pc a conversation recorded in my iPod Touch using the voice notes????

From the Users Guyide:
Syncing Voice Memos
iTunes syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPod touch to
your computer. This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a
backup if you delete them from iPod touch.
Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it
doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos
app until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPod touch, it isn’t deleted
from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from
iTunes, it is deleted from iPod touch the next time you sync with iTunes.
You can sync the iTunes Voice Memos playlist to the Music app on iPod touch using
the Music pane in iTunes.
Sync the Voice Memos playlist to iPod touch:
1 Connect iPod touch to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPod touch in the Devices list.
3 Select Music at the top of the screen.
4 Select the “Include voice memos” checkbox and click Apply.
Some users have said that they had to first create a blank Voice Memos playlist for the memos to be synced to the computer.

Is this compatible with the ipod touch?

Will this voice recorder be compatible with the Ipod Touch? I've been trying to find voice recorders for the touch and am not sure which ones will be compatible and which ones wont. Thanks!

Black screen - can not get in touch with my Ipod Nano

I have an Ipod Nano, latest model. After a short time the monitor shuts down and turns black / standby, can ths be disable?
I use my Nano with the Nike Ipod censor when I run, and it is diffical to get in touch with my Ipod Nano, when the screen after a short time have been black.
Should I see my runningdata or to stop the censor when I'm finishs running, and press the screen nothing happens.
Press I on / off button, so either I get a voice that tells a lot about my run, or push me 2 times on / off button toggles track.
If I press the + or -, I change the volume.
Keeps press on / off button, turn off my Ipod Nano and all my recording of my run is lost ...

Possible causes:
1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
2. Your phone is jailbroken.
3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.
