Microphone volume issue

Hi amiya_tripathy,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue with the microphone volume on your wired earphones. We'd like to help.

Are you using Apple EarPods with a lightening cable or another type of earphones? Do you notice this change in volume when using them for a phone call, a FaceTime call, or with any other app? Knowing this can help isolate this issue to the specific app you're using. Do you have any issues using this Starmaker app without the headphones? If you do, this resource may help:

If the microphones on your iPhone aren't working

If you find that this issue is isolated to this app only, these steps can help you troubleshoot this issue: If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open

Hope that helps!

Take care.

Amiya,

Thanks for keeping us updated!

Since it's happening to more than one app, we can rule out a specific app. Do you have another pair of headphones you could use? Knowing how another pair works with those apps will help you determine if the issue is with the specific EarPods or with the device itself.

Test that out and let us know if the issue persists or not.

Cheers!

Quality has worsened on the Starmaker app, I think the Starmaker needs to update with the change in IOS15. a 4000 Rs android phone works better with Starmaker than a 50000 RS iPhone.

Can apple ask the app developer to investigate this issue and help us.

I also having the same issue with my iPad six generation and iPhone 6s. I have changed several headphones but there is no change. I’m only having this issue with StarMaker app. when I’m recording hear back volume is too metallic and not syncing with the music track

So its not a microphone issue....

seems that starmaker app doesnt care for iOS devices. Ultimate solution is to get a cheap android phone if some one is so willing to sing on StarMaker OR alternatively Switch to Smule and have a VIP account for $55/yr which definitely has far better sound quality and has superior backing tracks.

In my opinion the later can be a better choice :-)

it seems like instead of improving the latest versions are further deteriorating the voice quality. Today it seems we can’t even tolerate the drafts. While recording we can’t hear our voice properly. So much background noise and so much metallic, harsh voice! Is there any solution to this or are we going to suffer?

I am have big issues singing on SM from summer 08/2021.. sound is terrible.. echo.. voice behind music.. sound like sitting in a metal can .. yes I bought new lights earphones.. .. after opening the old one I saw inside the have copper… what is normal !!and the new lighting ones are with normal white metal.. what is not good for singing.. I understand that metals are getting expensive.. but Apple need to keep quality products! Recoding sound on SM is horrible!!

Hmmm finally I came on this community and found that I am not the only one having issues with starmaker. I tried different microphones and even tried with audio interface but failed to get proper recording :( .

So it seems to have an issue with iPhone. I am using iPhone 12.

I am on smule also and find it much better. But have lot of friends on starker and I really miss singing on starker.

Apple techies..... kindly do something :)

I was so irritated last few months. Was on iPhone XR and had feedback noise, or voice would not record so would be nothing but background music. So thought bad buds, replaced those. Thought bad mic, was ready to spend $99 deductible since replacing buds didn’t fix, had to be phone. Instead ended up buying new iPhone 13! Guess what! Same issues on brand new phone! I did have apple suggested backing up phone, restringing it and set up as new phone in case problem due to some corrupt app. Then download app off App Store. Try before any other apps readded though. Did help but pain in the neck. It is StarMaker. Their games aren’t functioning right….oops sorry our lack of acting about, also eats up coins or shorts paying you….so no rush I’m sure. I hate starting over getting new followers from scratch and I have over 100 songs! StarMaker update stinks!

No, i am going to rate StarMaker negative feedback on their AppStore,I think if everyone does that at least heads would turn and they would look into it if that doesn't happen it better to leave StarMaker and go for paid app Smule or any other instead of banging head with a cheap app maker company who are just greedy for user data

Have tried feeding them back both on the appstore as well as feedback section on Starmaker. Starmaker customer support sent a lame response saying "use effects/volumne/pitch functions to enhance voice / mic quality", so pathetic !!

Other way out is to buy a cheap android phone, as Starmaker works perfectly fine there and has whole lot of voice control options too !

After the recent update the recording on StarMaker app isn’t good. The music track is running behind, the voice is echoing, metallic and effects aren’t actually good.

Even I am facing similar issue on my iPhone 12 pro max - recording quality on SM app has degraded. Any fix ?

I also facing a lot of problem in starmaker app the voice and music quality is worst now a day every song which I have recorded is in very poor quality. Please fix this issue
