In this age of technology, almost everyone has a smart phone. These smart phones have made life a lot easier with their built-in cameras, video recorders, audio recorders, etc. with these video and audio recorders, you often record videos and audios. But the problem is that you can’t edit these recorded audio files on your cell phone as there aren’t any built-in apps for that. Thanks to 3rd party app developers who are putting endless efforts to boost our productivity. However, technology has made life a lot easier though. Not only now can you edit audio files, you can also create them.
Sing! Karaoke (free)
You don't have to wait for a karaoke bar or to be alone in your shower if you want to bust out into song. Sing! Karaoke lets
you sing all of your favorite songs any time of day, anywhere you are.
You can record videos of your solos and share them with followers on the
app. It also has a few helpful features, like vocal enhancement, to
improve your voice where it might need a little extra help, and, if you
don't want to solo, you can do a duet with pre-recorded tracks from pop
stars like Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande.
Djay (free, $2.99, $9.99, $49.99)
By far one of the most popular and advanced DJ apps available on both iPhone and Android, djay turns
a smartphone into a mini turntable. It can integrate with Spotify (for
Premium users) and iTunes, so you can mix your favorite songs right in
the app. There are varying levels of intensity depending on how serious a
smartphone DJ you want to be, ranging from the free version on Android
phones to the $49.99 djay Pro on the iTunes app store.
DM1 – The Drum Machine ($4.99)
This app puts a drum set right in your iPad or iPhone (sorry, Android users). Created by Fingerlab,
the app lets you play, record and mix sounds electronically. The step
sequence, where you can create new beats, and the drum pads, where you
can play and record new sounds on your own, are both useful for aspiring
or experienced drummers looking to play via phone or tablet.
Songwriter's Pad ($9.99)
This app is the
ultimate antidote to songwriter's block. It incorporates a series of
features designed to push you over the inspirational hump, including an
emotion-based word and phrase generator to help you come up with ideas,
and a built-in rhyming dictionary. It's also just a useful way to keep
track of your songwriting lyrics and ideas anywhere you are.
Noisli ($1.99)
Need a break from the music? Or just all of the noise around
you constantly? A good white noise app can be your savior if you work
in an open office space or just need to block out the sound of everyday
life happening around you. It will fill your ears with the sounds of a
soothing water stream or a bustling coffee shop — whatever background
noise helps you focus best. You can also mix Noisli sounds together to create your ultimate white noise combo — and they's available offline, so you won't drain your data plan.
Audiobus ($4.99)
Audiobus is the one
app music lovers have to have if they're also downloading a bunch of
other apps to make music. This app helps users make sense of all of the
guitar tuning, drumming, synthesizing, looping programs that they've
downloaded to create their distinct electronic sound. With Audiobus, you
can take the sound you make in one app, move it to another app to
change it and then finally place it in an entirely different app to
layer those sounds over something else. It connects all of your music
apps as if you were plugging them into each other, but instead joins
them through this app's interface.
After you install and launch the app, it will give you three options on the app landing page. The options are Line-out (for headphones and external speakers), speakers (the internal ones) and wireless for Bluetooth headsets/speakers. You can select any of the enhancements depending upon how you would be playing your media.
The app reproduces the sound from any app on Android virtually and delivers them in high quality. The working of the app can be slightly complicated to understand, but I am sure that’s not what we are interested in. Let’s see how the app performs.
I tested the app with my Monster DNA headphones and JBL Bluetooth speakers and there was a significant difference in the sound. Noozxoide is not your run-of-the-mill sound equalizer where you can increase the bass or treble on a song. Here you can work on surround sound, digital presets and the likes. If you are not sure what each of the settings mean, just do a trial and error method till you get the best sound quality.
Note: The app would ask you for the kind of audio enhancement you would like. I would recommend Super Audio Quality. Remember that the app requires at least a dual core smartphone with a gig of RAM to function. Finally, open up the Android Settings and navigate to Sound—>Music Enhancement and select Viper4Android.
Once you have done that, the app is your playground. There are different settings for speakers, headphones and Bluetooth speakers with an amazing equalizer and various presets. So as I already mentioned, try out different permutations and combinations of settings till you get the best sound experience.
Noozxoide EIZO-Rewire PRO (Non-Rooted)
As odd as the name of the app might sound, it works great when it comes to digitally enhancing the audio output from your Android phone. The scope of apps is limited when they are not designed for a rooted phone, still Noozxoide EIZO-Rewire does a great job in its functionality. The app is available on the Play Store and can be installed on any Android phone out there.After you install and launch the app, it will give you three options on the app landing page. The options are Line-out (for headphones and external speakers), speakers (the internal ones) and wireless for Bluetooth headsets/speakers.

Viper4Android Audio Effects (Root Required)
Viper4Android Audio Effects is the ultimate app to use if you have root access on your Android phone. The privileges provided by rooting are required to install special audio libraries and drivers for the app to work. Viper4Android will ask you to grant it root access the first time you launch the app. After installing the drivers, you will be asked to reboot the device for the changes to take effect.Note: The app would ask you for the kind of audio enhancement you would like. I would recommend Super Audio Quality. Remember that the app requires at least a dual core smartphone with a gig of RAM to function.
