Software used:
Recording:
AudioLab (Android only): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hitrolab.audioeditor&hl=en_US
iOS: there are many apps that will work, but try the built-in voice memo app first. You can also use BandLab for recording.

BandLab:
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bandlab.bandlab&hl=en_US
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bandlab-music-making-studio/id968585775

AI assistants, such as Google Assistant and Siri, may conflict with this recording method, so I recommend temporarily disabling them during the recording. Here's how:

Caustic Editor for Volca Sample (to transfer sounds from your phone to your Volca Sample)
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.singlecellsoftware.kvsampler&hl=en_US
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/caustic-editor-for-volca-sample/id949331370
Note that there is a different app named just 'Caustic' which is also great (it is a DAW similar to BandLab), but not what you want for this particular process. You want 'Caustic Editor for Volca Sample'.
