Is it possible to mute AVAudioRecorder?

Question

I'd like the recording to continue, but with the audio muted. I'm not looking to pause the audio.

The alternative I have right now is pause the audio, throw in silence padding, continue recording, but if there was a simpler way of doing that, that would be great.

I also faced this issue, After long research i got the way whatever already you thought.

Your are going on right path !

One developer given related answer AVAudioRecorder / AVAudioPlayer - append recording to file:

You can append two audio files by creating a AVMutableCompositionTrack after adding the two files and exporting the composition using exportAsynchronouslyWithCompletionHandler method of AVAssetExportSession.

Please refer below links for more details.

Hope this helps to solve your issue.
