WO Mic

Regardless of whether you are playing video games with your friends, chatting on Skype or perhaps take advantage of a new speech-to-text feature of a program you are trying out, a microphone could surely come in handy. However, sometimes it just happens that your old one broke and you do not have one readily available.

WO Mic is a lightweight piece of software that allows you to transform your Android device into a fully functional microphone.

The setup is fast, straightforward and does not require any special attention from your part. Nevertheless, the driver should be installed so that you can route your voice to other application that you are commonly using and that require a mic.

Once you installed the application along with the associated driver and you downloaded the mobile application on your Android table or smartphone, you can establish the connection and start using the mobile device as a microphone. As far as quality is concerned, the app should act like a jack that supports 48000 sample rate, mono channel and 16 bits per sample.

You should know that the utility is designed to work as a regular microphone, so it should be automatically recognized by all software solutions that require this device. On a side note, you can enable the app in Skype by selecting the Custom device as the primary audio from the Audio Settings.

The utility provides you with three options in this sense, namely wireless, Bluetooth or using a USB cable. In the eventuality that you are unable to create the type of connection you want, then there is a chance that the ports responsible are blocked by your computer or firewall or perhaps, you need to check the USB debugg on your Android device.

Whether your old microphone broke and you cannot communicate properly in various applications and services or you just need a cost-effective solution until you get a new jack, WO Mic can lend you a hand.
