Frequently Asked Questions
How do I record a live jam session with multiple phones?
Use SONGTAKE! Place phones around the jam space—one near each instrument. Start recording on your phone and all connected phones sync automatically. No manual setup needed—just hit record and start jamming.
Will the phones stay in sync during a spontaneous jam?
Yes! SONGTAKE uses advanced audio fingerprinting to sync all phones automatically. Even if people start and stop at different times, everything syncs perfectly after recording. No manual alignment needed.
Can I develop jam ideas into full songs later?
Absolutely! Use AI stem splitting to isolate individual instruments from the jam. Extract that killer bass line or guitar riff and build a complete song around it. Jam sessions become songwriting goldmines.
What if someone joins the jam mid-session?
Just start recording on their phone and it syncs automatically. SONGTAKE handles partial recordings gracefully—you'll get everything that was recorded, all perfectly synced.
How do I find a specific jam session from weeks ago?
Every jam is automatically timestamped and backed up to the cloud. Search by date, browse chronologically, or organize by participants. Find "that one jam from last month" instantly.
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 give you multi-angle coverage and better isolation, one phone is all you need to create professional multi-track recordings with video overdubbing.
Can I use SONGTAKE for professional music recording?
Yes! SONGTAKE seamlessly transitions from mobile recording to professional desktop production. Start with iPhone for song ideas, then open the same project on Mac with a professional 64-channel interface for mixing and mastering. It's the bridge between inspiration and 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.
