Can EarPods with Remote be used as microphone for iMovie?

Question

Can EarPods with Remote be used as microphone for iMovie?

I am recording a video, and my iMac microphone is terrible in speaking quality. Can I use the EarPods that come with the iPhone and use it as a microphone to make better sound quality?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12.1), Late 2016 15" Touch Bar

Hello iOSAndroidRebel,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It's my understanding you'd like to know if you can use your Apple Earphones to record a audio in iMovie. I'm happy to help

If your using Apple Earphones with Remove and Mic, they can be used as an external microphone. Please review the link below:

Have a great day!
