I recorded a concert tonight and it was very distorted. .. the HTC one did a much better job of this. Is there a setting I need to adjust?

I've had no audio issues in video, but then again I haven't recorded any concerts. To be honest, I wouldn't expect sound quality to match a properly set up mike system.
Well keep in mind that most people probably don't record concerts and thus won't run into this issue. Yes, I know I've seen plenty of clips of these concerts and frankly, almost all sound like ****. I think the only one I can recall that sounded decent was one recorded with the HTC One. All the videos I've shot had very good audio. However the peaks at an ear-splitting concert are an entirely different animal.
You have to realize that this "weakness" of the G2 blows your mind because it's obviously a feature that you rely on. Not everyone records concerts. Take the HTC One for example. Some folk had big issues with the placement of the power button. For some that was a huge issue, for others not so much. It just depends on what is necessary for you. Other people's opinions vary. The S4's plastic build. Some were blown away that it was made of "cheap" plastic.I guess my point is that I've confirmed that mic cannot handle concerts... and I wasn't even close to the stage (lawn seats). There's got to be an app or settings somewhere that can turn the sensitivity way down so that it sounds good. It blows my mind that this is an issue when manufacturers put so much time and money into other parts of the phone. Most average Joe consumers record video & take pictures and when they get uploaded to YouTube or Facebook, they look & sound like garbage.
Is there a way to clean up the audio post recording?
