I noted the low audio volume and muffled sound quality of the ABSGEEGA wireless lav in mini-podcast 35. In this podcast, I used the Just Record This app to record the audio on an iPad mini 6 (instead of an iPhone) to test the app's transcription feature. I used Audacity to try to deal with the audio recording issues to process this podcast. There is, however, a short 5 second segment at about the 10 second mark of the podcast that let's you hear unprocessed recording. The volume is so low that it might seem like silence. I also recorded about 30 seconds of audio using the iPad's built-in mic for the last part of this mini-podcast.
