Frequently Asked Questions
How do I record worship music and church services with phones?
Position phones around the church—one near the worship team, one in the congregation, one at the soundboard. SONGTAKE syncs them all automatically, giving you isolated tracks for each part of the service without expensive multi-mic setups.
How many phones do I need for a church service?
3-4 phones give you excellent coverage: one for the worship team, one for the congregation, one for the message, and optionally one at the soundboard. Each phone captures its nearest source clearly.
Will phone recording work in echo-y church acoustics?
Yes! By positioning phones close to sound sources, SONGTAKE captures clear audio even in echo-y church spaces. Multiple phones positioned strategically give you professional worship recordings without expensive equipment.
How do I organize recordings by service date?
Keep all worship recordings organized by service date, song, or message. Every recording is automatically timestamped—find "that service from last Sunday" instantly instead of hunting through files.
Can I share worship recordings with the congregation?
Absolutely! Export full service recordings or individual tracks and share via simple links. Congregation members can listen to services they missed or relive meaningful moments—no massive file transfers required.
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.
