Recording .Wav with Android AudioRecorder
I wrote a simple (by which you should read, not to professional standards) class to do this yesterday, and it works.
private class Wave {
private final int LONGINT = 4;
private final int SMALLINT = 2;
private final int INTEGER = 4;
private final int ID_STRING_SIZE = 4;
private final int WAV_RIFF_SIZE = LONGINT + ID_STRING_SIZE;
private final int WAV_FMT_SIZE = (4 * SMALLINT) + (INTEGER * 2) + LONGINT + ID_STRING_SIZE;
private final int WAV_DATA_SIZE = ID_STRING_SIZE + LONGINT;
private final int WAV_HDR_SIZE = WAV_RIFF_SIZE + ID_STRING_SIZE + WAV_FMT_SIZE + WAV_DATA_SIZE;
private final short PCM = 1;
private final int SAMPLE_SIZE = 2;
int cursor, nSamples;
byte[] output;
public Wave(int sampleRate, short nChannels, short[] data, int start, int end) {
nSamples = end - start + 1;
cursor = 0;
output = new byte[nSamples * SMALLINT + WAV_HDR_SIZE];
buildHeader(sampleRate, nChannels);
writeData(data, start, end);
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
private void buildHeader(int sampleRate, short nChannels) {
write("RIFF");
write(output.length);
write("WAVE");
writeFormat(sampleRate, nChannels);
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
public void writeFormat(int sampleRate, short nChannels) {
write("fmt ");
write(WAV_FMT_SIZE - WAV_DATA_SIZE);
write(PCM);
write(nChannels);
write(sampleRate);
write(nChannels * sampleRate * SAMPLE_SIZE);
write((short) (nChannels * SAMPLE_SIZE));
write((short) 16);
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
public void writeData(short[] data, int start, int end) {
write("data");
write(nSamples * SMALLINT);
for (int i = start; i <= end; write(data[i++])) ;
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
private void write(byte b) {
output[cursor++] = b;
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
private void write(String id) {
if (id.length() != ID_STRING_SIZE)
Utils.logError("String " + id + " must have four characters.");
else {
for (int i = 0; i < ID_STRING_SIZE; ++i) write((byte) id.charAt(i));
}
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
private void write(int i) {
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
i >>= 8;
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
i >>= 8;
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
i >>= 8;
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
private void write(short i) {
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
i >>= 8;
write((byte) (i & 0xFF));
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------
public boolean wroteToFile(String filename) {
boolean ok = false;
try {
File path = new File(getFilesDir(), filename);
FileOutputStream outFile = new FileOutputStream(path);
outFile.write(output);
outFile.close();
ok = true;
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
ok = false;
} catch (IOException e) {
ok = false;
e.printStackTrace();
}
return ok;
}
}
Hope this helps
You might find this OMRECORDER helpful for recording .WAV format.
In case if .aac works with you then check out this WhatsappAudioRecorder:
On startRecording button click :
- Initialise new thread.
- Create file with
.aacextension. - Create output stream of file.
- Set output
- SetListener and execute thread.
OnStopClick :
- Interrupt the thread and audio will be saved in file.
Here is full gist of for reference :

PCMAudioHelper solved my problem. I'll modify this answer and explain it but firstly i have to do some tests over this class.
