BOYA BY-CM6A All-in-one USB Microphone
General Introduction
Thanks for choosing BOYA! The BOYA BY-CM6A is a desktop USB microphone with a built-in camera and an LED ring light. It is compatible with Windows and Mac comput-ers, ideal for live streaming, video conferencing, vocal performance, and more. With a cardioid pickup pattern, the BY-CM6A is designed to capture sound in front of the microphone and effectively reduce unwanted background noise. The built-in camera provides crisp, clear images with an HD resolution of 1080p at 30fps. The BOYA BY-CM6A features built-in controls for gain, headphone volume and muting, while the 3.5mm headphone jack enables real-time monitoring. An LED ring light surrounds the camera, providing even illumination for the user. Finally, an adjustable desktop stand allows you to adjust the microphone to the desired angle.
