Can the iPad Pro M3 adjust audio levels in real-time during video recording


The iPad Pro M3, like other recent iPad models, offers advanced video recording capabilities, including features such as audio zoom, which allows the device to adjust the audio levels in real-time during video recording. This feature helps focus the audio capture on the subject, enhancing the overall audio quality by dynamically adjusting the sound levels based on the distance and movement of the subject relative to the camera.

However, the iPad Pro does not provide a manual real-time adjustment for audio levels during video recording through the Camera app. Instead, it relies on its built-in audio processing capabilities, such as audio zoom and stereo recording, to optimize the audio capture automatically. Users can connect external audio interfaces or microphones via USB-C to gain more control over audio levels, but this requires additional hardware and software support.

For more precise control over audio during video recording, users might consider using third-party apps that support external audio devices or offer more detailed audio settings. Additionally, features like Center Stage are available for video recording, but they primarily focus on keeping the subject centered in the frame rather than adjusting audio levels.

In summary, while the iPad Pro M3 offers advanced automatic audio features during video recording, real-time manual adjustment of audio levels is not directly supported through the native Camera app. Users seeking more control over audio may need to explore external solutions or third-party applications.
