It's huge for musicians too..
This + bandlab = crazy music 🎵💯🎸
@EternalLifeWithJesusChristthis is not how to win souls bro
@EternalLifeWithJesusChristwtf is wrong with you.
Do you have a tutorial on this please for live streaming?
Ok so you hit record on the iphone and the audio comes directly from the mic? Been wanting to do this for years man
Seen a few questions in regards to power. Not tried my 15 pro with scarlet yet but it powers my irig fine on its own
I use a s24 ultra for photos and video recording while using ipad pro m4 for music creation
Can you share the details how does it work please
Gonna get an iPhone 15+ asap
How do I get the iPhone camera to recognize the mic?
I feel like TH-cam just doesn’t send me notifications for comments on shorts… sorry this is so late I didn’t have any notifications showing comments for this video.
Are you using an interface and an iPhone 15?
When I plug in an audio device it will usually just connect right up and no settings need to be changed. Sometimes it will ask if I want to use it as my headphones, but that’s about it.
Some devices need more power than the iPhone can provide, so it kind of just depends on each setup/audio device.
@@AudioHotline I’m having the same issue. I open my camera but my interface is not recognizing my condenser mic with iPhone camera. It’s recognizing my iPhone mic instead 😢
@@Josianne-Music kinda similar questions to what I said above if you want to reference that. What model iPhone are you using and what interface?
I saw a video where they used an older iphone and needed to connect it to a charger for it to work
@@AudioHotline Thank you so much for replying. iPhone 14 and 2i2 4th gen. I want to record vinyl records. I think I will probably need a software and a laptop. I thought it would be possible to record only with mic and speakers but the audio quality is awful… I will keep searching to see what I can do :)
How to make a video like this with just my phone and focurite mic and sound card
Video on connection setup?
Just got my iPhone 15 and being able to use my interface was the main thing I was excited about. So I tried it with my zoom l12 and the recorded audio is panned completely to the left side 😭Any idea how to fix this? I tried my other interface and it pans completely to the right. Any tips would be appreciated!
My guess is the “Record Stereo Sound” under camera settings is making this occur. Turn it off and see if that fixes it. Maybe while at it, try micing up input 1 & 2 with “Record Stereo Sound” is on and see if you can indeed record stereo audio through the camera app. Let me know if you try this or even if I’m on the right track
Same issue here. Tried your suggestions but unfortunately it did not work out (Kamera settings). Indeed it is input 1 = left and input 2 = right. Any solution to output both inputs stereo to the iPhone?
I was having trouble with it only recording to the left ear. How did you address that? The ultimate goal would be a voice and a guitar simultaneously recorded without hard pans
Are you using a 4th gen Focusrite 2i2?
@@AudioHotline I have a third gen I believe but I just switched the iPhone camera settings from recording in stereo off. I think that fixed it
@@walterooskiI did the same but only got it to record on both sides ONE time & the rest of my tests stayed on the left. 🤷🏾♂️
Same issue how do you solve it?
Did anyone solve this? I thought I’d sorted it by switching to mono in camera settings but it’s back doing left only again
Ok my dude. You need to explain how to not make it record mono into one ear. Otherwise, it’s it so amazing. What did you do?! Please
@@juliemombourquette3648 I can help! There are a couple easy work arounds, but it really just depends on what your process is.
Are you planning on shooting your footage in the iPhone and editing it in the iPhone? Or do you transfer your footage to an NLE (ie premiere, davinci resolve, etc).
Also, are you planning on shooting in “cinematic” mode on the iPhone, and is it a deal breaker if you can’t?
@@AudioHotlineyou never got a reply to this but i would be interested in what you were going to say as it seems a lot of people are having trouble recording in stereo
@@AudioHotline I'm having the same issue! I'm recording in cinematic on an iPhone 15 pro max via FocusRight 2i2 with a SM7B, but I can't find a way for it to record in stereo. I'd love to hear your recommendation!
Im using with my s23 ultra, after recording voice comming only left ear side, right side voice not comming how to fix this plese help me
Thanks 😊
All you need is a the camera adapter if you still have lightning connector. I don’t see what the fuss is about
There has always been a lack of full-frequency response with the lightning port. Additionally, power delivery to external devices (interfaces) is WAY better with USB-C and transfer rates are way better with USB-C from the iPhone 14 Pro (480 mb/s) to the iPhone 15 Pro (10 Gb/s). If you're an AV person, there are definitely advantages.
Does this only work with the iPhone 15? Is it not possible to connect the Volt 2 to the iPhone via a USB-C to Lightning Cable? (perhaps using the 5V input to provide extra power if needed?)
Curious to know, since I'm considering getting a 4th Gen Scarlett and would like to know if I'd be able to use it with my older iPhone
Having same problem and planning on doing the same thing did you have any success with a usb-c to lightning cable ?
Can I use this with my iPhone 15 pro and my usb c MacBook Pro? iPhone 15 Pro used for the camera, the Scarlet for an audio interface for my XLR mic and then connect the device to my MacBook.
You can use the Focusrite Scarlett with both your iPhone 15 Pro and MacBook.
If you are talking about using both simultaneously, then no you can’t use them at the same time. Only the MacBook or iPhone. You would need something like the Rodecaster Duo with 2 USB C connections to do that. If you want to explain what you are trying to accomplish/setup I could help you a bit more!
I was a little confused what I’m trying to do is I have a scarlett 2i2 here with USB type C and I’m trying to hook up an XLR microphone to the audio interface and then run a USB-C cord to the iPhone but when I record using the iPhones camera app, it keeps using the built-in microphone and not my podmic
@@brycemorgan6708that’s happening to me.. did you manage to fix it. Please help 😊😅
Can I record several video + audio files with a Scarlett directly on iphone and after that do some mixing and addding distortion on giitar for exaple in the end I can get a video with 3 or 4 insteuments together?
Tried to connect directly my iphone14promax to the 4th gen 2i2 and it didn’t work. Should I buy lightning to usb3 camera?
Did you manage to get it working somehow?
Yes, I bought the usb3 camera bro…☺️
@@JPCanilao Cool! Will do the same then, thanks bro!
@@JPCanilaohey, why you need the USB3… can you not use type C cable?
Hi, I am not able to record both left and right channel. It records only one side. Using imovie on Ipad with type c and guitar connected through 4i4
How’s the battery life with the audio interface plugged into the iPhone 15?
It definitely goes down faster, I haven’t drained the battery completely, but it seems like for me it went down about 12% per hourish.
@@AudioHotline not that bad actually!
I have Scarlett 2i2 4rd Gen and it supports external 5V 1A external power source. With external power source interface won't use cellphone power.
Is this to the iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Pro?
I’m still going to use my iPad to record more intense stuff out and about, but just getting good audio for jams to video would be sick.
I was using it with the 15 pro but both will work! It’s so nice having a USB-C connection on such a portable and capable device!
@@AudioHotline Stereo microphone 48v ?
"We" did it?
What mic/book arm is that please?
It is the Shure SH-Broadcast1

So can I just connect my iPhone 15 to the Scarlett 2i2 Studio and use the mic off of there for music? Asking bc I haven’t bought one yet and plan on to but don’t want it to be waste
Yes you can! The irig recorder app works really well for that, so does GarageBand. Those will automatically convert the tracks to mono or stereo, based off of whatever you want.
The only struggle is people wanting to record video, with the native app, while using the 2i2. It records the audio to one side (which is an easy fix regardless) but for music you wouldn’t have to worry about that!
@@AudioHotlinehow is that an ez fix? I have searched everywhere and reddit, there is currently NO fixes for a mic and guitar through focusrite 2i2 4th gen into iphone being STEREO. Voice in input1 ALWAYS comes out of left speaker, guitar always comes out of right of the iphone!
@@TWO_EZ I am going to be coming out with a video very soon where I talk about this exact problem and how to solve it.
Easiest solution, use the Blackmagic cam app. Then you can go into the setting within that app change both input 1 and 2 to be mono (or dual mono) and you’re good to go!
@@AudioHotlineok I am going to try it right now
@@AudioHotlineo M G, it worked holy crap it actually worked, i spent 2 hrs last night doing everything except finding this app!
You’re amazing, i’m letting all my discord know, and to sub to you.
While this is an excellent fix, i understand it’s an app doing this and if the app ever stops existing…this problem isn’t resolved at the root level, i am hopeful you will have a solution on the focusrite so no matter which iphone it’s video recording into, both inputs will be mixed together instead of coming out on left or right speaker only
I bought a Samson usb mic to use with my Galaxy note 10+.... did not work!... at all.
So I bought a used 2i2 interface so I could use any mic I want. Success!
Works with stock camera app. Works with Samsung voice recorder. Works with Facebook live. All plug and play.
However I cant get it to work with my 18i20 3rd gen. 🤔
but can you answer a phone call with it ??
You can use it on a phone call, but I don’t think you will be able to record at the same time… due to the legality of it, but maybe I am wrong.
What adapter did use
@@kawshiksark1 I tried it , didn't work
Only reason you have it is because the EU had the balls to push around apple on finally getting rid of their antiquated chargers
I know, I am happy they pushed hard enough, because I was over the dumb lightning plug. I have always hated apple/macs dumb proprietary chargers.
A tutorial would be helpful😒
The iPad no longer uses it an an audio interface! Lights up but nothing
What does he mean
Why would he be using the camera app
So I can record audio with an audio interface and film at the same time…
I have connected my shure smb7 + focusrite 2i2 4 gen to my iphone 15 pro but my camera app is only recording a mono signal. On my headphones, the video audio is only coming from the left side. I can only listen from the left side. Is there anything I could do to fix it?
I have the same problem
The 2i2 out of the box is set up as a stereo device. Meaning the 1st channel is the Left side and the 2nd channel is the Right side. In post, this is an easy fix in most editing softwares there will be an option to change a track from stereo to mono or “fill right audio with left audio” (a premiere pro setting). You can usually just go into the track settings and change to “mono” though. Depending on the software you use, you will just need to look into those settings. If you let me know what editor you use, I could guide you on that.
If you are looking to record videos straight onto your iPhone, not edit them and post them (or you don’t want to deal with the stereo issue in the edit)… I would recommend getting the app “Blackmagic Cam” and recording your videos with that app. In the Blackmagic app you can go into the settings, select your audio source (2i2) then underneath that select the “record audio as” setting and choose “mono”.
You can also do this in the “iRig Recorder” app.
Sadly the native “camera” app just isn’t very friendly with audio yet.
Not true any more. The iPad os17 breaks the scarlet 2i2
Breaks it? Did you experience this first hand? If so, what happened?
@@AudioHotline the scarlet not function at all as an audio interface despite some software seeing the number of inputs change from 1 in and 2 out to 2 in and 2 out which is indicative of the audio interface existing…. The apps and the iPad OS provides no means of choosing this device for use nor does it automatically switch to using it.
I fear my only option is to buy a volt and sell this or stop using it for iPad use at all which is why I got it in the first place
@@triniticoclough6387Really? Did you manage to fix it? I just bought 2i2 4th gen and it’s not working with iPhone camera app. I can’t believe I wasted money 😢
Big deal guy... We've had it for years - BARK (Android fan boy)
You were the person I thought of 😂
@@AudioHotline oh I know lol
Doesn’t work. USB icon lights up red.
@@mooted5513 what gen and model?
@@AudioHotline fixed it. Turns out the iPhone 15 pro doesn’t provide enough power. But with the Scarlett into a power source all is well
@@mooted5513 yeah! Sounds good.
Will Scarlett Solo kit (3 or 4 gen) work with an iPhone ? I have 12 pro max,i know i need a cable, i can get ubc to lightning, i just need to know if it all works to record vocals? And do i need a usb power hib? Thank you
Just buy lighting to usb camera adapter , works well for me
That mic is a hyped horror story. But sure.
It has a three position high frequency (as well as a low frequency) switch. Usually I use the flat mode for my voice instead of the boost 1 or boost 2 mode, but I did accidentally have it in the boosted mode for this video. You’re not wrong, those high end boosted modes are a bit intense, especially for people with a bit higher voice (like mine). I kind of wish it had something like the Lauten LS208 where you can actually trim some of the high end instead of boost it.
For young, thinner voices I can suggest a U89... smooth as silk and takes EQ like nothing else... very underrated mic. A vintage ribbon like a 74b would also be a good choice. And of course the broadcast standard SM7b, which you can get used for $200 or so. To my ear the Lauten is also hyped... got that hyped condenser "honk" that some artists look for... no matter the settings. Thanks for the reply.
Samsung started using usbc 3.0 since 2017. And the new iphone 15 and 15+ are still using usbc 2.0, a 23 year old technology. Unbelivable.
