Dolby Unveils New App To Record Sound In High Quality


Monday, September 23rd, 2019 |

Making good quality field recordings with your phone is hard. Often you don’t have the time or space to record with good quality equipment and have to do it when the inspiration strikes. Whether it is a cool sound in the subway, bird chirping on a hike or a fleeting sound from your window, you need to be able to capture the moment when it happens. One problem is always that the sound quality can be pretty rough when using a phone. Dolby is trying to remedy that with a new app called Dolby On.

Dolby On is a free iOS app that lets you record music and video with the help of Dolby technology. It does this in several ways.

It eliminates the background noise, which could be buzzing, white noise or other people ruining your sound. According to the site, “Dolby On’s proprietary dynamic EQ automatically adapts to your music, and stereo widening expands your sound beyond mono.”

The app comes with a slew of ways to boost or enhance the audio. It allows you to go deeper with treble, boost, bass and track trim controls.

You just download the app (free in the US for iOS users) and then tap a button to record the sound. Read more on their website to see how this could work for you and to download.

Having only missed the very first year of WMC in 1985, it was 1986-1990 that initially placed me on the map globally due to the international attendance of the entire dance music community. All throughout the 90s I was often getting written about by various high profile mags and websites for having contributed to help break many artists, DJs, producers and remixers. WMC enabled me to bring many top industry people together all under one roof, especially at Groove Jet, where house music officially met Techno in my sets and it’s all been uphill since…TBC

I first went to WMC ’87, the year I started Big Beat. It was an incredibly inspiring congregation of indie labels, DJs, artists, songwriters, producers and dance music lovers dedicated to breaking and discovering new music. WMC has been instrumental in furthering the dance and electronic cause; keeping the community connected, vital and relevant, and serving as an amazing springboard for talent. It’s a fantastic crucible for the future of dance music. Long may it live.

CEO & Co-Chairman Atlantic Records, Founder Big Beat Records

Before there was Ultra Music Festival, there was The Winter Music Conference, the annual coming together of the dance music tribes. Miami in March is a fundamental place to be from a business perspective, and has always given me endless opportunities for discovering new partnerships and talent. WMC brings together the dance music industry and surrounding culture like no other event in America. I’ve been attending WMC for nearly 20 years, and I’m very much looking forward to experiencing its evolution in 2019.

I’m so glad to see WMC rebooted with such thoughtful content and first-class curation. It’s been a long time since the industry had a must-do American event and this is it. The reborn WMC!


Patrick Moxey

Ultra Music

Miami has always been a place I’ve considered home and WMC was essential for me and the label in many ways. From showcasing our new music to keeping up with all the new artists and releases. It was the official kickoff of the year and I’m happy to see it thriving again.
