RecForge II: Voice Recorder

RecForge II is a professional audio recorder and dictaphone for Android, built for people who need control over how sound is captured — not just a red button. Most voice recorder apps hand your audio to the system and hope for the best. RecForge II lets you set the gain yourself, switch off Automatic Gain Control, pick your codec and sample rate, and check your levels before you hit record. What you hear is what you get. ▬ WHY RECFORGE II ▬ • Disable AGC (Automatic Gain Control) — no pumping, no auto-ducked levels • Manual gain adjustment for quiet sources • Live level preview BEFORE you record, so you set gain before the take, not after • Real-time monitoring with a live audio spectrum analyzer • 8 encoding codecs, including lossless FLAC and uncompressed WAV (PCM) • Full external microphone support: TRRS adapter, RODE SC6, RODE smartLav, iRig Mic, iRig Cast, iRig Pre • No recording time limit, and background recording while you use other apps ▬ RECORDING ▬ • High quality sound recorder for interviews, lectures, meetings, rehearsals, field recording, wildlife and nature sound, band practice, studio takes and voice notes • Record to mp3, m4a, ogg, wma, opus, flac, speex or wav • Sample rate from 8 to 48 kHz, bitrate from 32 to 320 kbps, 16-bit • Mono, mono x2 or stereo • Choose front, rear or external microphone • Skip silences to keep long sessions compact ▬ PLAYBACK ▬ • Built-in player with stereo signal and spectrum display • Loop any selection — for transcription, memorization, actor lines, recitation, instrument practice • Music speed changer: time stretching with independent tempo, pitch and playback rate ▬ EDITING AND CONVERTING ▬ • Cut, crop, concatenate and merge your recordings • Convert between all supported formats with full control over sample rate, bitrate and channels • Extract the sound stream from a video file • Tag your recordings and edit metadata • Save speed and pitch changes as a new file ▬ FILE MANAGEMENT ▬ • Recordings are saved to your Music folder by default, so they stay on your device if you uninstall and are visible from a computer • Organize in folders: rename, delete, copy, move • Sort by date, name or size • Share by email or messaging apps, or send to your cloud storage ▬ SUPPORTED FORMATS ▬ • Encoding: mp3, m4a, ogg, wma, opus, flac, speex, wav • Decoding: mp3, ogg, wav, wma, flac, opus, speex, m4a, m2a, mp2, aac, m4v, mp4, mka, mkv, ac3, eac3, amr, 3gp, 3g2, avi, mov, asf, ogv, wmv, flv, f4v, webm • Sample rate 8–48 kHz, bitrate 32–320 kbps, 16-bit, mono / mono x2 / stereo ▬ MADE FOR ▬ Journalists and podcasters recording interviews. Students recording lectures. Musicians capturing rehearsals and song ideas. Field recordists and naturalists chasing quiet sources. Researchers, transcribers and language learners who need a clean, unprocessed file. Also used for concerts, sermons, conferences, ASMR and paranormal (EVP) recording. ▬ GOOD TO KNOW ▬ RecForge II is not a call recorder and does not record phone calls. Recording quality depends on your device's microphone and on the audio inputs Android exposes; AGC control and manual gain are not available on every device. If recording stops while the app is in the background, check that a battery optimizer or task killer is not closing it — see dontkillmyapp.com Every setting is explained in the FAQ: https://www.recforge.ovh/help Found a problem, or need a feature?
