This is the Portacapture X8’s Voice recording app.
This app has been designed to capture the best audio for vlogging, interviews, meetings and more.
Here we see the user interface.
At the top of the screen we see the length of our recording
and beneath that and to the right is how much recording time remains on our SD card.
In the center of the screen we find unique metering visuals.
As soon as the Voice app is pulled up, we can see that audio is already coming into the unit.
No need to on the X8 before recording.
Within the metering we see a microphone icon.
By touching this we’re able to manually raise or lower the input gain.
After making our changes, we can touch the screen again and the Gain menu disappears.
If we want more control over the sound of our audio, we can do that too.
Touch the menu at the top left of the screen, then touch Input Settings.
From here we have the ability to fine-tune our signal.
Auto gain will allow the Portacapture X8 to make the necessary gain adjustments automatically
rather than having to set this ourselves.
Low-cut allows us to cut low frequencies at different intervals.
This helps to get rid of rumble and boominess in our audio.
also have a limiter/compressor option and EQ.
As we can see, the default EQ setting for the Voice app is Voice.
But if we touch the EQ type, we’re taken to the EQ menu.
From here we’re able to select preset EQs that are designed for specific types of inputs.
Or, if ultimate EQ control is desired, we can touch Manual and access a 4-band EQ.
Let’s take a look at how easy it is to start recording with the Voice app.
Push the record button to start recording.
The stop button ends the recording.
If we’ve decided to make any changes to the settings in Voice app, the Portacapture X8 will store those settings
and recall them the next time we open the app, even if we power the unit off.
Thanks for watching!
