mode on Windows 10, we have created the\u00a0<strong>Re.corder Bridge<\/strong>, a simple application that relies on the excellent loopMIDI.<br \/>It\u2019s a beta version, so let us know if it works for you and feel free to suggest how it can be improved.<\/p><p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>\u00a0. If you don\u2019t already use it, first download loopMIDI on your pc\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tobias-erichsen.de\/software\/loopmidi.html\">https:\/\/www.tobias-erichsen.de\/software\/loopmidi.html<\/a><br \/>Install it and create a MIDI port by clicking on the symbol on the left leave the app open.<\/p><p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>. Download the\u00a0<strong>Re.corder Bridge<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/recorderbridge\">here<\/a>\u00a0and install it on your pc.<\/p><p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>. Open the Re.corder Bridge, connect re.corder and keep your finger on the circle button of the recorder when pairing. While playing you should see the note appearing in the UI. At this point you should hear the windows synthesis (Microsoft GS Wavetable synth is selected in the combo at the top).<\/p><p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>. Select the virtual device from the combo<\/p><p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>. Connect the virtual device in your DAW<\/p><p><strong>Troubleshooting<\/strong>: If you still don\u2019t hear any sound after performing the above procedure, check the re.corder connection on loopMIDI, if the \u201cTotal Data\u201d value is 0 the connection has not been established correctly. You can try repeating the procedure or you can try using an alternative application to re.corder bridge such as MIDIBerry or Bluetooth LE Explorer.<\/p><p>You can also read this step by step guide with pics in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/re.corderplayersunite\/learning_content\/?filter=140443004736938\">re.corder Community<\/a><\/p><div class=\"dvfaq-after-content\"><div class=\"dvfaq-sharing-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-19196\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse19196\" aria-controls=\"collapse19196\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\"><i role=\"presentation\" class=\"ea-expand-icon eap-icon-ea-expand-plus\"><\/i> How do I connect re.corder on Mac Os to use it with a DAW?<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse19196\" data-parent=\"#sp-ea-1919\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"ea-header-19196\"> <div class=\"ea-body\"><p>To connect re.corder on MacOs follow the steps below or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/jmt16JxRMh0\">watch this video tutorial<\/a><\/p><p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Enable Bluetooth<\/p><p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Open \u201cAudio Midi Setup\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Window -&gt; select \u201cShow MIDI Studio\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Click \u201cBluetooth\u201d button<\/p><p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 A list of bluetooth devices to choose from is shown.

The audible volume of these sounds is primarily determined by the volume settings of the phone\/tablet, not by the re.corder settings.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">The setting involved on the phone\/tablet is the one that controls the volume used when playing videos, music files etc. This will usually be called \u201cmedia volume\u201d or \u201cvideo\u201d, \u201cmusic\u201d, etc. volume on the sound settings menu.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">For the re.corder to sound at a good level on the phone\/tablet, this media volume MUST be on a high setting \u2013 at or near maximum.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">However, most phones\/tablets automatically reduce this volume to a low level when you connect headphones or an external speaker. They do this to protect the user\u2019s hearing. Unfortunately, this makes the re.corder so quiet that you can hardly hear it.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">So, you need to do the following at the start of every session where you are playing the recorder through a phone or tablet:<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\"><b>After you have connected the headphones or external speaker and connected the re.corder via the app, go to the phone\u2019s\/tablet\u2019s sound settings and set the \u201cmedia volume\u201d to maximum or something close to maximum (a bit lower maybe if you are using headphones). Also, if you have a setting that limits the media volume, turn it off.<\/b><\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">You might actually find the volume is too loud now, but you can always adjust it down to the level that you want.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">This on it\u2019s own should fix the low volume issue, but there are some changes to the re.corder app settings you can make that will also boost the volume a little, which is the next section.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bi6gxh9e\"><\/div><h5 class=\"gmql0nx0 l94mrbxd p1ri9a11 lzcic4wl oud54xpy sqxagodl ku2m03ct\" dir=\"auto\"><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v hnhda86s m9osqain\">2.

The default \u2018Linear\u2019 curve is the most expressive, but also requires the hardest blowing to attain high volumes. You could try some of the other curves (like \u2018Embedded1\u2019, \u2018Embedded2, or \u2018Embedded3\u2019 which are slightly less expressive, but play louder for less breath pressure than \u2018Linear\u2019.

And you should have no need to tape or block up the mute hole to boost volume. The mute is designed to let a little air out, but it should not be audible \u2013 if it is audible then either you do not have the mute properly in position or you are blowing too hard.<\/span><\/p><p>(Guide by John Harrison \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/re.corderplayersunite\">re.corder Community<\/a>\u00a0expert)<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-19204\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse19204\" aria-controls=\"collapse19204\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\"><i role=\"presentation\" class=\"ea-expand-icon eap-icon-ea-expand-plus\"><\/i> How do I get technical support?<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse19204\" data-parent=\"#sp-ea-1920\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"ea-header-19204\"> <div class=\"ea-body\"><div class=\"dvfaq-accordion-header dvfaq-active-header\">How do I get technical support?<\/div><div class=\"dvfaq-accordion-content dvfaq-open-content\"><p>For technical support you can write an email to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:appsupport@artinoise.com\">appsupport@artinoise.com<\/a>\u00a0specifying the devices and operating system you are using.<br \/>However, we strongly recommend you to join the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/re.corderplayersunite\/\"><strong>re.corder Community<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0on Facebook where you can receive support from both Admins and expert re.corder users, exchange opinions on the instrument, share your performances and propose ideas on next developments.<br \/>See you there!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-19205\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse19205\" aria-controls=\"collapse19205\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\"><i role=\"presentation\" class=\"ea-expand-icon eap-icon-ea-expand-plus\"><\/i> To whom should I report App bugs?<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse19205\" data-parent=\"#sp-ea-1920\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"ea-header-19205\"> <div class=\"ea-body\"><p>To report any App bugs please send an email to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:appsupport@artinoise.com\">appsupport@artinoise.com<\/a>\u00a0with screenshots information about your device and operating system.<br \/>Thank you!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-936f0c3 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"936f0c3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f590f5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0f590f5\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4c7400 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"a4c7400\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b12cac elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b12cac\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Didn\u2019t find the answer you were looking for? <\/strong><\/p><p>Fill out the form with a detailed description of the problem and the type of device\/operating system you are using with re.corder.
