What do you suppose will happen if 5 processes each ask for audio recording with 5 different combinations of recording frequencies and sample sizes? Is Android obliged to resample audio to those requested parameters for each app? What about 10 apps? That's a lot of resampling.
This is the reason why only one app can record audio at a time.
