About Apple Ear Pods headphones

The reason that happens is because the mic is directly in line with the left earpod--in other words, it's on the same cable. the best thing you can do is to turn off speech when recording. aside from that I don't think there's much you can do to solve that issue.

i was also disappointed at the apple earphones/earpods life span, i always ended up tearing them up in like a few months. taking them in and out of my pocket for school and stuff. they weren't cheep. i forget how much they are off the top of my head, but there to much for a poor college student to be going out and buying a new set every two months or so. as far as recording goes, those earphones also bleed sound a lot, so your mike is probably picking up sounds from the ear buds themselves. unless what ever you are using to record is recording from your sound card. that is a whole different issue in and of itself
