Now more than ever, people are communicating with audiences, friends, and colleagues online. Whether you’re a hobbyist, professional, or somewhere in between, the YCM01U USB microphone was designed to give you and your audience a natural and comfortable listening experience that adds an extra touch of professionalism to your streaming or remote working environment.
Creating your own streaming or telework setup has never been easier. No driver installation is required — simply connect the included USB cable to a computer or iOS device and you’re ready to go. Operating the YCM01U is just as simple, with intuitive volume control of your voice and the person/people you’re communicating with assigned to a single dial on the microphone body. Headphones/earphones can be connected directly to the stereo mini jack on the back of the main unit. *Some devices may require an additional adapter.
The YCM01U’s capsule is a unidirectional or “cardioid” condenser type, capable of capturing the full texture and power of your voice while simultaneously conveying the most subtle nuances. The cardioid design suppresses unwanted ambient noise from the rear of the microphone, creating a clear and comfortable sonic experience for listeners that allows them focus on what you’re saying.
The head of the YCM01U is decorated with thick lines to create a modern yet nostalgic look reminiscent of iconic condenser microphones that have become a staple of professional audio environments the world over. Available in white or black, the YCM01U looks great as a desktop microphone, adding flair to your room's interior décor.
In addition to the USB cable, the YCM01U comes with a microphone stand. You can also store and carry the microphone in the included microphone pouch without worrying about damaging the unit.
