Can I Use Two iPhones as Microphones?

Yes. SONGTAKE lets you use two iPhones as microphones at once: place each phone near a different source, tap record once, and both capture to their own track. The app auto-syncs the two recordings afterward using an audio fingerprint.

Can I Use Two iPhones as Microphones? - SONGTAKE

This is YOU?

One phone mic cannot cover two sources well.
Buying two real mics and an interface is expensive.
Lining up two separate recordings by hand is painful.
Bluetooth mic apps drift and lose sync.
You already own the second phone, so why not use it.

Pro Tip: TIP: SONGTAKE treats each iPhone as a dedicated mic. Place one on the vocalist and one on the guitar, tap once to start both, and it aligns the two tracks automatically after you stop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use two iPhones as microphones?

Yes. SONGTAKE uses two iPhones as two microphones at once. Place each near a source, tap record once, and both capture to separate tracks that auto-sync afterward.

How do the two phones stay in time?

SONGTAKE aligns the recordings after you stop using an audio fingerprint of the sound both phones heard. You do not clap or line them up by hand.

Do the phones need to be wired together?

No. Each phone records locally, then syncs its take into the project through the cloud. They align automatically, so there is no cable between them.

Can I use more than two phones?

Yes. You can add more iPhones as extra mics for a bigger session. Each one records its own track and joins the same synced project.

Which phone should I put on vocals?

Put the closest phone on the quietest or most important source, usually vocals, and the other on the louder source. Closer placement means cleaner separation.

What makes SONGTAKE different from voice memos?

SONGTAKE records in true stereo with automatic cloud backup, project organization, and multi-track capabilities. Unlike voice memos that create a graveyard of unnamed files, SONGTAKE keeps everything organized, synced across devices, and ready to develop into full productions.

Can I use SONGTAKE with just one phone?

Absolutely! SONGTAKE works perfectly with a single phone for recording arrangements, backing vocals, and layered instruments. While multiple phones provide multi-angle coverage and better isolation, one phone is sufficient to create professional multi-track recordings with video overdubbing.

Can I use SONGTAKE for professional music recording?

Absolutely! SONGTAKE allows you to effortlessly move from mobile recording to professional desktop production. Begin capturing your song ideas on your iPhone, then open the same project on a Mac with a 64-channel interface for mixing and mastering. It's the perfect tool to transform your inspiration into a polished production.

How does multi-phone recording work?

Place phones near each instrument for dedicated microphones. One tap starts all phones simultaneously, and they automatically sync after recording. No manual alignment needed—just position phones, hit record, and get professional multi-track isolation from devices you already own.
