About BOYA BY-EM20

BOYA BY-EM20 features both USB Type-C and 3.5mm outputs for compatibility with a wide range of mobile devices. BY-EM20 includes an external audio input, built-in mixer, headphone jack, three DSP modes, and desktop tripod.

This mic offers a cardioid polar pattern to help minimize background sounds and ambience, focusing the audio capture on what's in front of the capsule, picking up less sound from the back and, to some degree, the sides. The mic captures a wide frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and offers three different pickup modes-Karaoke, Streamer, and MC.
