Podcast with Your Iphone: How-to Video

Category: General, OSX, iPhone |

The iPhone hacking community has come a long in the couple months since the iPhone was released, under extensibility lockdown. Not only can you now get an iPhone “out of jail”, there are a growing set of useful native applications.

It turns out one of the things the iPhone does really well is record podcasts. The combination of the adaptive multi-rate format, the iPhone speakerphone, and ad hoc recording scenarios produces a suprisingly solid outcome when combined with the freely available Levelator tool. Check this short video for a how-to.

***temporarily removed ***

This walkthrough focuses on OSX and includes the use of:

  • Installer.app & VNotes (free/open source)
  • BSD Subsystem & SSH for IPhone (free/open source)
  • QuickTime Pro for AMR -> WAV ($30, cross platform)
  • Levelator (free/cross platform)
  • Audacity (free/open source/cross platform) + MP3 lib
  • ID3 Editor Musorg (free OSX)

    Just found this free AMR to mpe/wave converter to complete the process without having to purchase QT Pro.

    The iPhone has come along way in a short time period. But thanks to learning Linux I can use it to the fullest. It sucks foe those who will never get to use it in the way it wasn’t meant to be used. And yes I said the way it washy meant to be used.

    We used this technique earlier today to record our latest (third) podcast for readcomics.org. I used switch to convert to .wav, and added id3 tags with iTunes, but other than having to figure out my phone’s default root pw, the process was flawless.

    oh, I also edited with garage band rather than audacity… mostly to try it out. I’ve used audacity before though, and it’s great too.
