I've always been an android user. Check out the caustic sound editor. I was recording into the phone microphone and sending samples straight into the volca.

dude for the love of god can you update or remake this app is old as fuck but is my favorite music player with things NO OTHER PLAYERS HAS
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.stohelit.folderplayer
Wow that looks awesome! Would be super convenient for the Mustang 1/2s without the built in screen.
If anybody out there has an Android tablet/phone, you can do something similar with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tritoninteractive.remuda (you need a USB adapter though)
You could use a spectral analyzer to see if it's really there or not.
If your'e younger than the other people around you, it's quite possible you're hearing a high pitch tone that they cannot here. I've personally experienced this (uh, the other way I'm afraid).
If it's not there, then it's tinnitus. Usually tinnitus sounds fade in and out, not just abruptly start and stop. More noticeable when it's really quiet.
Audio Evolution for Android Website
Audio Evolution Mobile Studio TRIAL on the Google Play Store
I have Audio Evolution Mobile Studio for Android; A full-fledged Digital Audio Workstation with individual tracks up to 24 or more I think. MIDI, functionality with USB Audio Interfaces (it worked with the behringer UMC404HD). I highly recommend this to anyone who has an Android device and wants to record something high-quality on a budget. There are some features that you have to buy in-app (like DLC for a game, kinda stupid) but it's still affordable.
I have honestly considered downsizing from my Desktop Workstation and laptop with Reaper and just using Audio Evolution for demos and recordings before I take them into the studio just because it works well. I'm definitely going to try and implement it for a mobile-workstation set-up.
I haven't used iOS in years but I know the newer versions have GarageBand pre-installed, which is pretty cool from a musicians stand-point.
Hope this helps.
DI.fm is an excellent online radio for loads of electronic music genres. The free version has audio ads, but they're WAY less imposing than for example Spotify's. Bitrate is 128kbps without sub, 320kbps with. One of the best online radios I've ever come across! It's also available for PC (of course) and in-browser playing or exporting of playlist to use WinAmp or VLC or whatnot (so you can use that sweet, sweet visualizer, y'know).
You can do this using Tasker in combination with Macronos. Macronos isn't free, but IMO it's easily powerful enough to justify spending $3.99 on it (I'm not the author, just a fan of it). There's more info about setting it up with Tasker here.
Edit: Upon further inspection, you can use wifi as a trigger within Macronos itself, so no need for Tasker at all. One of the features they list on the Play Store description: "Wi-Fi play - Starts playback when arriving home."
Or for Android users, can do PA mode with Macronos, which has a couple of other cool features like lowering volume automatically when you make or receive a phonecall, automatic play when connecting to your wifi network, etc.
I use Macronos to turn on music automatically when my phone connects to my home wireless. It also reduces the volume when the phone rings, which is nice.
Turning it off when you leave is a harder problem, I've got a script watching a log on my router for my phone's MAC address leaving the wireless network and using SoCo to stop whatever's playing.
Here's the trial version
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.aemobiledemo
Another thing to note is that this works best in a tablet as the layout can be a little compact, but if you have a device with good processing power, it operates like a breeze regardless
Oooh, nice. I hadn't heard of that. FYI to people, the "developer website", when you google the name of the software, looks like malware.
Use the App and Play Store links
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/caustic-editor-for-volca-sample/id949331370

All right, update.
Baofeng uses the Kenwood connector - the "speaker" pin is wired to the tip of a 2.5 mm jack. I found a 2.5 mm > 3.5 mm jack cable (from my AT headphones). But you can't plug it into a phone jack socket, because the microphone pin gets shorted to ground with a regular 3-pin jack. And my 4-pin jacks are still en route from China.
So I plugged a cheap $1 USB sound card (plastic blue noisy trash) with line in and out via an OTG adapter into my phone. Finding an app which would allow me to record and monitor (listen to) the audio at the same time was a feat. Audio Evolution Mobile Studio works well so far, but because of its nature (multitrack "pro" studio), it's a bit cumbersome.
When I finally got out to capture some transmissions, I spent half of the pass fiddling with cables only to find, that my earbuds weren't working. Oh well, at least I can repurpose the cable for the 4-pin jack.
hey cool
in addition to a tuner.. i wonder if a spectrum analyzer would be useful? could give you visual feedback on tone..
i use this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=radonsoft.net.spectralview&hl=en_US
This is probably true.
Tip: Try this app before buying an adaptor. There are others like it if that perticular one doesn't work.
If you have an Android device, try getting some software like Spectral Audio Analyzer. Run it, and you should see the sound as a constant horizontal line that never goes away despite whatever other sounds are made. (That is, assuming that the sound is a real noise present in your room and not some artifact generated by your computer.)
Anyway, if you can detect it with this, walk around the room and see if it gets stronger and weaker as you move around. It could help you find the source of the noise so that you'll have a shot at eliminating it.
There may be similar apps for iOS devices, but I don't have an iPhone or iPad so I don't really know what they are.
If you have Android, you can control the Mustang from your phone.
You just have to download Remuda and buy a USB OTG adapter.
I have owned a Mustang II for some years now (I think since they first released the line). It is a solid practice amp with a lot of good sounds. The catch is that in order to get the thing to sound good, you really need to install the software. There is no way around it.
Sadly, the biggest weakness of the Mustang I and Mustang II amplifiers is that they just don't have enough controls actually mounted on the amp itself. You have only a tiny amount of control over presets and effects when you are only using the few knobs that are actually on the amp. The Mustang III, IV, and V all don't have this issue as they all have the required controls right there out of the box.
I am not sure what aversion you have towards downloading and installing the Fender Fuse software. If you don't have the hardware required to run it, that is one thing but if you do have what you need to run it, you really might as well just suck it up and install it.
If you have a Android based tablet or mobile device, you could install Remuda. The full version is not free but the "lite" version is. It is very good (perhaps better than Fender Fuse itself) but again, you have to install something. There is no way around it so you might as well just do it.
Many thanks for a great review, I enjoyed it alot. For buds I updated to these when I got the Nexus 5x and they are amazing and I think the only Hybrid earphone sout there for Android with 3-buttons, http://degausslabs.com/earphones/noir added to that they have a headset control app supporting Marshmallow which was a "Must have" for me commuting and using the headset mic/ control for controling Spotify right out of my pocket. Again, thanks for that great review, I already switched but that just gave me more confidemce in the update I did. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shengande.degausslabs&hl=sv Cheers!
Actually it looks like this app has Tasker plugins too so you could probably get this and do the rest of what I described wsith Tasker but pass it through this app to talk to the Sonos.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.youtec.android.macronos&hl=en
Double tap on the headset button calls the last dialed number. IIRC there's a plugin on the Xposed repository which fixes this. It works by inserting an empty entry to the top of the last-dialled list.
I think there's also an app you can use to re-define what the headset button does. An app like this should be what you need if Xposed isn't for you.
How about Digitally Imported? Not sure if it's available where you are, but they've been around a long time and have lots of different types of electronic music. Main site is here.
With the item you give, yes on my Nexus 10. Make sure you have a phone/tablet with USB OTG. With this cable: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B005QX7KYU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
And I have done my recording with this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.aemobiledemo
Streamer setup typically means you want to broadcast yourself to twitch or youtube, and that's quite some additional stuff on top..
Recording on Android isn't really all that advanced/usual thing to do. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.aemobiledemo claims to have a special low-latency driver for usb interfaces, but it looks like the Katana can only be used with 44.1kHz - but at least it works in a quick test I did Works to multitrack-record the DI along with the wet stereo signal. Trial version is limited to 45s recording via the USB driver, but that's enough to test. Paid version is 9€ + 4€ in-app-purchase for the low-latency audio driver. If you only record yourself over a backing track, then the default android USB-audio driver will also work, despite the higher latency.
But recording on a tiny phone is not really comfortable, not sure whether the tab7 is large enough for the UI to be useful.
As to playing over backing tracks: just feed those in via aux-in (to have it output via the speaker) or feed it in via USB (then you'll only be able to hear it using the rec/headphone out)
Hi,
djay main installed basis is macOS/iOS, but it is also available on
Windows in Microsoft store https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/p/djay-pro/9nblggh4vm4h?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
Android in Google Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.algoriddim.djay_free
Haven't checked recently, but android's never really been great for low-latency audio. There's a rekordbox app, but it looks like it's for library management.
Try Djay. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.algoriddim.djay_free
Kind of, as i've said it's a bit off being truly scientific with the kit I've got now. A great deal is knowing the process damping wavelength of your material, which is found through empirical methods. (coincidentally figure 15 is the important result graph, it allows you to find the maximum depth of cut vs a range of rpm values)
I wing it on process damping wavelength from values I've learned/found, find the main natural frequency from a signal processing app and plug it into a bit of software I still have kicking about. To be honest it's still a tad trial and error.
On Android there is an app called Macronos that helps with grouping.
You can add shortcuts to your home screen to allow quick grouping, for instance: upstairs, downstairs, everywhere. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.youtec.android.macronos
According to this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tritoninteractive.remuda&hl=en_GB&gl=US it "Requires USB OTG adapter/cable for connection to amplifier"
Also: https://fender-mustang-amps-and-fuse.fandom.com/wiki/Remuda_App_for_Android
TL;DR:RTFM
I've used a spectrum analyzer app for something like that before.
For Android, there's Spectral Audio Analyzer. I'm sure there are many others.
Anyway, once the app is running, you can usually figure out what part of the image on the screen corresponds to the noise. Then while walking around and turning the phone different directions, it seems easier to identify the source of the noise. In my experience, it eliminates the feeling that your ears are playing tricks on you.
There's a good app out there called headphone equalizer It can identify which device is connected on bluetooth and apply a specific equalization for that set. Can also detect music genre and change the eq for that. If you use a few different sets of headphones it's well worth it.
If you have an Android phone, you can try Remuda https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tritoninteractive.remuda&hl=en_GB&gl=US (works with I, II, III, IV and V) from Google Play Store. I've given up using Fuse with my Mustang. You'll need a USB C to USB 3.1 Adapter OTG USB Type C Adapter to plug your Mustang in.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated in any way with the creator of app that I'm linking.
On Android you can use Audio Evolution Mobile.
You will have to disable MIDI support in the settings to make the Katana work and depending on your device, it might not work well at all.
You will also need an OTG adapter and a device that supports USB OTG.
The app that I linked is a free demo which should be enough to see if it works for you.
I don't own an iPad so I can't help you there.
Fender Fuse was built around (discontinued) Microsoft Silverlight. Silverlight was MS answer to Flash, but does not support 64-bit and is not compatible with the macOS 10.5. Fender officially discontinued Fuse last March and removed the download links. They replaced Fuse with the new Fender Tone, but that only supports the newer Mustang GT, GTX and LT and some Rumbles.
If you have an Android device, there is Remuda for MUSTANG. Since iOS never officially supported Silverlight there is no iPhone/iPad equivalent. Otherwise, for your Mac, you may have to consider running virtual machine or dual booting to an older macOS to use Fuse.
The best app is Vuper4Android, but it needs root and it is not worth it. Are you using Bluetooth headphones? There are some apps in the Play Store, try THIS ONE or THIS ONE. I am still using my Note 8 and the Bluetooth headphones I have are quite good for its price. I tested them with songs I know how they should sound.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manythingsdev.headphonetools
This app is a pretty easy one to adjust and seems to be working ok so far with the buds. Once it kicks in you'll hear a difference immediately. Whether or not you think it's an improvement sound wise is subjective I think, though. I think the audio is fine as is, but if you want more bass on heavy hip hop or something, then maybe add bass.
Caustic Editor for Volca Sample runs on Android. Haven't used it myself, but hopefully it should do the trick for you :)
I know of djay by algoriddim that works decently for me. You can load tracks from Spotify, it's got basic functionality, only the bpm and beat detection sometimes messes up. Can have some fun with it though!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.algoriddim.djay_free&hl=en
I think every fan of electronic music should have di.fm on their phone. Now it is subscription based but the free version is definitely usable and just throws an ad at you every now and then.
Pretty much every genre of electronic music is represented here from chill out melodic stuff to hardcore and gabber with each station curated by its own dj and most of the bigger stations having live radio shows from world famous djs.
Highly recommend to at least give the free version a try.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.audioaddict.di
Link me: di.fm
There's a free, third-party Android / iOS app that's even better than the iOS app for the Sample. But it's still obnoxious to add samples that way.
Reverb on the Modular is a bit cheap, but it's still fun to patch. I like using the FM for a bassline and turning on the Arp to add some bounce. It was great for atmospheric sounds, but I think the Modular might be replacing that.
Yeah, they're cheap. But they're fun. I'm gonna start looking into filters next. I think I need a really fancy delay/reverb.
Digitally Imported Radio DI radio is a must have for any fans of electronic music. There's dozens of free channels curated to all genres of electronic music. Completely free to use but a subscription service does get you higher quality and no ads. I've been using the app and website for years highly recommended.
a cusom MP3 player might ley me rewind 5 seconds with say a double tap
anyone knows of any?
thank you
btw: i found this software
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shengande.degausslabs
emailed them: good app, can not FF FastForward or RW Rewind say 5 seconds, i guess no OS API to do that?
i think a custome player could do it do you know any that could?
say just to rewind 5 seconds with a double click
they have this support page Q/A
>Why is not my favourite player listed in the app? The Headset Control Center app lists all apps that support Android API Remote Button Control, that allow apps to be controlled by headset buttons. If you have an app that does not show in the list, write a mail to the music player developer to add support for Android API Remote Button Control. It is no idea to rate the Headset Control Center app with one star
Have you tried DeGauss yet? I used it to stop my headphones randomly activating the Google app when I was running, and it worked well. Should be able to hook your headset buttons and direct them to whatever music player you're using.
Wow thanks a lot for your comment! I'm glad that you find it usefull! I have just added the app "Digitally Imported Radio " to the list of players we need to support!

This app will let you talk into your phone and play it through a Sonos speaker (amongst other features). Little bit of lag, possibility of horrible feedback if you're in the same room, and no two way audio, but might work in a pinch (or for your amusement).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.youtec.android.macronos
I was just reading yesterday about somebody using an app designed for hunting down high-pitched noises. There was a thread of somebody talking about the sound that CRT Tubes make.
I think the app was called SpectralView
I use my stock android player.
For audiobooks I use this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.stohelit.folderplayer&hl=en
Neither can access Audible files, but do play every file I rip.
Chippies,
Moto X does not have 3-button support. Nexus 6P does, so no worries using your Degauss Labs Android headset with that phone :-)
MortPlayer also lets you choose your music folder(s). And it's damn nice, it really feels like a folder driven player - reminds me of Winamp.
An app that suggests songs to play next depending on what song is currently playing, using data from what other DJs played. I miss having that feature when I switched from Virtual DJ to Serato
An app that lets me control my DJ software, that way I can keep the party going while I take a bathroom break or something. Kinda like Serato Remote except for Android
A DJing app that doesn't completely suck. djay comes close, but its major downfall is that it requires Spotify instead of letting you use songs on your device.
Are you really looking to analyze the spectrum of an entire song or are you instead looking for something that can generate a spectrogram?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrogram
If you're just after spectrum (and you're working with WAV files) , you can use my Caustic editor for volca sample. It's free and you don't need a volca device.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.singlecellsoftware.kvsampler
Just start the app, press the waveform on any of the slots, File.. Load to get your audio then, Tools... Spectrum. If playback is stopped it will process and average whatever's selected.
>1.) I'm not picky on the music player app, but it's annoying having to take my phone out to control music. Double tap to skip, triple tap to skip back/rewind, volume up and volume down. Four simple controls that just doesn't comply with any phone or app.
I have an answer to your first question. I use the Samsung ear buds with the three button control with Mort Music Player to do what you've described: double tap for next track, triple tap for previous. In addition, I can single tap for pause or hold for stop. Mort has configuration for four and five tap options as well.
