AudioEditor is the first app that I found after downloading 6 others that will import my 2003 Sony MiniDisk Walkman recordings onto my IPhone SE iOS 14.0.1. I use the lightning adapter to 3.5 mm headphone jack, then go into that with another adapter which coverts the 4-section 3.5 mm male plug ( headphone, left in, right in, and microphone) into a female port that accepts the 4-section plug and then converts that to go to two 3-section female ports ((1)headphone, left out, and right out AND (1) microphone, left in, right in) which the microphone port gets connected to the headphone out 3.5 mm port on the MiniDisk player. In the app, you hit ‘RECORD’, then immediately press play on the MiniDisk player. This could be how you’d import any analog sound source with an easy headphone jack. The key to this is the ‘4 to 3’ headphone (3.5mm) jack converter which was under $5 online (KingTop was the manufacturer). Since this converter has a separate headphone jack left over once you’ve hooked up the microphone port for your transfer to your phone, you can simple plug into the headphones and hear what’s being transferred! Hopefully you could follow this advice, but it is simpler than it may seem. Practice niceness✌️

Before the recent update, this app was incredible all you had to get through was a couple ads rarely and you had a blast editing audio. But recently they just made it where you have to pay for some membership for the stuff that was ALL FREE BEFORE which is ridiculous and the worst part is that I doubt they will listen also. It will never change back and I’ll now have to search for a new audio editor like I’m sure many others will do. I understand as well that maybe they might be running low on money as a company, but the worst thing to do is to make us pay for stuff that was already free before, why would we do that. 30 dollars or pay 3 dollars a month when we could buy a better software as a more permanent solution. If you’re truly into editing audio and weren’t just messing with it and having fun with it with my friends like I was, you might as well get a better software even though this one is incredible and has great care and love put into it. I had a great time using it but now they made all the fun features locked and only available if you pay. Overall developers if you are reading this somehow, please Im begging you change it back and if your desperate for money truly just make everything available but with a couple more ads the membership should only be for no ads and if people want that that’s on them. Thank you.

Have used this app for years and I honestly love it. The devs are great at updating it to ensure all features of importing audio works. It’s a constant cat and mouse game with all of these platforms constantly updating and changing how their products work so that some of the functions of this app lose compatibility and are unavailable… but they usually find a patch and release it in a few days. Some functions that I think would be useful as far as editing audio files would be a noise gate to improve audio recorded through the iPhone microphone, the ability to remove clipping from audio that’s been imported or already been edited once whether through volume gain or FX, and the ability to adjust the strength of audio toolbox features (i.e. a noise reduction scale, scale to indicate where the vocals lie on the spectrum of the audio, and a way to match the gain of the volume with a specific frequency of the audio.) All in all this app is the most useful and practical app for ANYBODY who uses their phone for editing, storing, importing, and converting audio.
