Loud music recordings? - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Can anybody share a video from a concert or a night club with really loud bassy music? I am recording rehearsals with my band with my phone and need to hear how good the audio quality is before I buy a new phone.
I would be very grateful.

Here you go.. Loud bar last night. Mi 6 128gb version. Edited for privacy of course

thank you, that helps a lot

Camera recording Video+Sound quality test

I wanted to test the camera performance. What better place to do than at a concert?
Drake Concert in Amsterdam of past Sunday.
Quality is very good, but noise cancellation sometimes kickes in and destroys the sound

I had a thread a while back asking for raw video samples from peeps here that I can directly download instead of youtube uploads. It's probably 10 pages back now. Would love if you could put some raw video on a download site.
Regarding the concert vids. I think they are pretty terrible to be honest. Slow and blurry and the audience and dark areas are literally black silhouettes. The audio was really epileptic, like I was going in and out of a seizure. You are right, it must be the audio cancellation doing its thing. The audio otherwise is pretty subpar when it isn't going up and down.

Noise cancellation? Havn't tried it yet.
had exactly the same result at a gig a couple of days ago.... Video camera going in and out of focus and the sound totally messed up by what i assume to be noise cancellation.
The twin mike's are supposed to record in stereo so it shouldnt be using the noise cancelling

i think audio is in amr format right?
i think HTC should upgrade to aac format like galaxy nexus, ICS supports aac format for audio in video recording.
either way i don't think the mic on one x can handle concert audio, nokia pureview 808 should be ok. even sony nex series can't handle concert audio very well. but panasonic gf2 is very good in concert recording, no cracking and muffled sound.
I don't know what format it records sound.
Then it must not be noise cancellation then. The videos I've downloaded show AAC in stereo. The format makes no difference. It could be wav, mp2, mp3, ra, ogg, etc., all of which can render high quality CD audio. The audio recording just sucks really bad, for whatever reason.
Was at an event yesterday and used my phone to record this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6z3p11RcMQ
surprisingly it's way better than my digital camera
Had the same issues especially going in en out of focus even in good light conditions.
Haha, the sound quality is a bad joke ...
What if you turn off stereo sound recording? Maybe there is a stupid bug associated with it.

[Q] Video Camera Horrible Audio Quality

I attend alot of concerts that are very loud with heavy bass and every time I record the video looks good and is super clear but as soon as you listen to the video the bass totally drowns out the sound and is just a big static noise every time a beat is dropped. I'm wondering if there is any camera i can flash that helps this with better recording for audio? i have flashed on my s3 the zettajoule rom with the camera that comes with. I'm going to Ultra Music Festival next weekend and i want to be able to record great videos with good sound, thanks!

Speakerphone (loudness, clarity)

Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the Honor 8's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Speaker is surprisingly loud, and at max volume, does not distort.
No distortion at maximum level what so ever, and it is quite loud. I can hear cleary while driving if I have music going through over the road noises. In my bedroom the quality is great, can hear my phone blasting from downstair.

That's great, most phones have distortion at max level. It seems huawei knew the sweet spot of speakers volume.
Speaker is not as good as the one in the Honor 7. Audio quality by headphone is awful.
It matters a lot if youre music maniac. I listen to music almost everytime. So its important to me that even if I play the song on speakers, it doesnt distort on high volumes.

I've read so much negativity about the speaker I was expecting to be really disappointed. It's actually not that bad at all. I'm happy with it.

The volume on the front firing Nexus 6P speakers are much louder. Just got the Honor 8 today but the volume is a bit weak for my taste, for the rest its a great device (besides eMUI).

For me personally, it is loud enough. And I do not have any knowledge on the loudness of 6P.

Bass is so critical for me, but since I don't use loud speakers can you tell how is music through headphones?!
Thank you for your comments regarding the Honor 8's speakerphone. When you are playing back music or using the speakerphone, you can increase the volume by pressing the volume up button. Please try playing a loud ringtone to test whether there is a problem with the audio source. If there is, it is recommended that you change to a different music file then try again. If the problem persists after the steps detailed above, please back up important data and take the receipt issued with your phone to an authorized Huawei service center for repair or call into our customer service team at +1-844-524-6667 and they can try to help fix your issue with the speakerphones volume. We will forward your information to the product development team for them to review and analyze. We appreciate the feedback. (NS)
Clear sound from the speaker, loud enough too. I only use the speaker to listen to youtube clips so the lack of bass is really no problem, after all how can a small phone produce bass anyway....if i want better quality i just use my headphones.
Loud enough for me personally. I still haven't received B131 so I know that's went to improve quality, but it's no replacement for front firing speakers.
Basically, I'd advise you use proper speakers!
speakers get loud enough to listen to music in a big room

Video recording sound quality in very loud places

Has anyone used their Pixel / XL to record video of a live music performance or in a nightclub? I tend to film a lot of live music at concerts large and small and want to know if the audio gets very distorted or not. I currently have a Nexus 6P and it's okay but not great, have to stand fairly far from the stage to avoid distortion. My old HTC phones (M8 and M9) that had a dual microphone setup was nearly flawless in extremely loud places and I really miss that sound quality.
I'm interested in this as well. Anyone tried recording a video in a club or loud concert?
I tested my Pixel XL the other night at a blues club, standing less than 10 feet from the stage and the sound quality is very good, no distortion at all. The sound is a little bit muted in the vocals but much better than my 6P could ever do. I'm quite happy with the sound quality of the video.
Below is a link to the video i made

[Q] 5T Audio recording in loud environments (electronic concerts)

Hello guys,
Yesterday my Nokia 7 Plus arrived and i am overall pretty happy with it. However i am a bit disappointed that there is no 60FPS video recording and no way to unlock the bootloader yet.
Now i am thinking about switching to the One Plus 5T, but because video recording at concerts is a big point for me and my last phone, the one plus 3 had a really bad quality, i am wondering how the 5T is performing?
Yesterday i received a testvideo from a OnePlus 5 user and i must say i am not pretty happy with that kind of quality:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/bgeE8qdpTo805BBt1
When the bass kicks in, mostly every other part of the song is not recognizable. Does the OnePlus 5 uses the same microphones as the 5T?
What's your opinions switching from the Nokia 7 Plus to the 5T?
Thank you in advance
nobody?
Well for me the bass definitely is clipping at concerts. Nothing you can do but using a low cut. The bass at concerts is too loud anyway but I have to say that the iPhone makes better videos and has a higher audio quality at concerts.

Yeah, the bass at most concerts is too loud, but i heard a lot of devices (huawei, samsung, iphone) which had no problem recording in heavy bass environments.
Made a testvideo yesterday with my Nokia 7 Plus and i must say the audio quality is the best i've ever heard from a phone so far.
I am wondering if the active noise cancellation of the 5T destroys the sound quality, because the one plus 3 had the same issue.
