What is Dolby On?
Dolby On is a free audio and video recording app from Dolby Laboratories for smartphones. It automatically applies studio processing such as noise reduction, dynamic EQ, compression, limiting and stereo widening to recordings, and it can livestream to Facebook Live or Twitch with the same processing.
Phone recordings pick up hum, fan noise and uneven volume, which makes demos and rehearsal clips sound amateur. Dolby On applies Dolby's processing chain automatically as you record, then lets you shape the result with Styles, which work like photo filters for audio, and manual bass, treble and boost controls. You can also import recordings from other apps to clean them up.
