Hi all - I wasn't too sure which category to put this in...
I'm looking for something that I'm not sure exists!
My girlfriend is a musician who plays at lots of weddings - I go along with her to help set up and - inevitably - take the videos for her instagram/socials.
A lot of the time there is a lot of background noise from the venue when using the phone camera sound only, and we're looking for a way to get a more pristine sound.
Is there a way to set up an external audio device to the phone with which to record her playing live, whilst simultaneously syncing that audio up to the video being filmed on the phone, all at the same time?
Perhaps some kind of bluetooth mic???
I've seen those Rode Wireless Go 2 mics - is that the right idea?
I've suggested recording the audio using a field recorder and syncing the audio and video on the computer when we get home, but in my experience the video quality always ends up suffering as soon as it comes off the phone and into a movie editing suite.
Sorry for the long, possibly incoherent question! Hopefully you can make sense of what I'm asking.
Thank you all.

Best way is to get the audio from the desk and synch it in video editor if it is modern desk with USB or recorder built in and mix a little of the room ambient from the phone in,
You should not lose video quality downloading clips from the phone,
What phone and editor are you using?
iPhone 14 pro max and the footage goes into an ancient 2009 macbook pro and iMovie - I think it's the iMovie that is the culprit for ruining the video quality.
If you have a modem audio interface advertising apple compatibility it should just connect and be the source.
