Dual Microphone Design for Versatile Recording

The BOYA BY-M1DM features a dual lavalier microphone system, making it ideal for capturing audio from two speakers simultaneously. This design is especially useful for interviews, two-person podcasts, and other on-camera conversations where both individuals need clear, balanced audio. Unlike single lavalier setups, the BY-M1DM allows each microphone to route its signal to a discrete channel, providing greater control in post-production editing. This ensures that each speaker’s voice is captured distinctly, without overlap or quality loss, offering a professional-grade recording experience.

Omnidirectional Condenser Capsules

Equipped with omnidirectional condenser microphones, the BY-M1DM captures sound evenly from all directions. This means the mic does not need to be precisely aimed to pick up clear audio, allowing for more natural movement and comfort for the speakers. The omnidirectional pattern is perfect for interview scenarios, as it picks up the speaker’s voice regardless of subtle head turns or minor repositioning. The condenser technology also provides greater sensitivity, capturing the full tonal quality of voices and reducing the need for loud speaking or close mic placement.

Wide Compatibility Across Devices

One of the standout features of the BOYA BY-M1DM is its broad compatibility. With a standard 3.5mm (1/8”) 4-pole gold-plated connector, it works seamlessly with a wide range of devices including smartphones, DSLR cameras, camcorders, audio recorders, and even PCs. A built-in switch allows users to toggle between camera and smartphone modes, optimizing the microphone’s performance based on the device in use. Whether you’re recording a mobile vlog or a professional DSLR shoot, this mic adapts effortlessly to your setup.

Long Cable for Flexible Setup

The microphone system includes a total cable length of 4 meters (13 feet), with 2.8 meters (9.2 feet) of distance between the two microphones. This generous length ensures that both subjects can move and sit comfortably, even at a distance from each other or the recording device. The long cable allows for clean and clutter-free setups, particularly in professional environments like interviews, classroom recordings, or live presentations, where mic placement and distance are crucial for clear audio capture.

Included Accessories for Enhanced Usability

BOYA includes a thoughtful range of accessories with the BY-M1DM to support different recording environments. The lapel clips securely attach each microphone to clothing, allowing hands-free operation. Foam windscreens help reduce wind noise and popping sounds from speech, enhancing overall audio clarity. The included 1/4” adapter further expands the mic’s compatibility, enabling use with professional audio gear that uses larger input jacks. These additions make the BY-M1DM a complete, ready-to-use microphone solution straight out of the box.

Reliable Power and User-Friendly Operation

The BY-M1DM operates with an LR44 battery, ensuring stable power for long recording sessions. A clearly labeled ON/OFF switch allows users to easily power the mic on when recording with cameras, and switch it off when using a smartphone (which supplies power through the connector). This intuitive setup prevents confusion and ensures that users can quickly adapt the mic for different recording environments. The reliable power system and user-friendly controls make it a dependable tool for both beginners and experienced creators.
