Perguntas Frequentes

How do I keep a band practice log?

Use SONGTAKE to automatically log every practice. Record each session with one phone or multiple phones for better sound. Every practice is automatically dated, organized, and backed up. Listen back to track improvements and identify what needs work.

Can I track improvement over multiple practices?

Yes! SONGTAKE organizes all practices by date and project. Compare this week's performance to last month's. Actually see your band getting tighter—objective evidence of progress that motivates everyone.

Do I need multiple phones for a practice log?

No! One phone works great for logging practices. Multiple phones give you better sound isolation and multi-track analysis, but even a single phone creates valuable practice logs that help you improve.

Can I add more channels if my rehearsal space has a sound card?

Absolutely! Record with phones, then plug into your computer to add more channels through your sound card. Combine phone recordings with professional interfaces for comprehensive practice logs with lots of channels.

How do I position phones for best stereo recording?

Position phones strategically around the rehearsal space—not too close to one instrument, not too far from the band. For multi-phone setups, place each phone near its target instrument. Lower input gain if needed to prevent clipping. SONGTAKE's stereo mics capture spatial depth naturally.

O que torna o SONGTAKE diferente das notas de voz?

Posso usar o SONGTAKE com apenas um celular?

Absolutamente! O SONGTAKE funciona perfeitamente com um único celular para gravar arranjos, vocais de apoio e instrumentos em camadas. Embora múltiplos celulares ofereçam cobertura multi-ângulo e melhor isolamento, um celular é tudo que você precisa para criar gravações multi-pista profissionais com overdub de vídeo.

Sim! O SONGTAKE transiciona perfeitamente da gravação móvel para produção desktop profissional. Comece com iPhone para ideias de músicas, depois abra o mesmo projeto no Mac com uma interface profissional de 64 canais para mixagem e masterização. É a ponte entre inspiração e produção.

Como funciona a gravação multi-celular?

Coloque celulares perto de cada instrumento para microfones dedicados. Um toque inicia todos os celulares simultaneamente, e eles sincronizam automaticamente após a gravação. Não é necessário alinhamento manual—apenas posicione os celulares, aperte gravar e obtenha isolamento multi-pista profissional de dispositivos que você já possui.
