1) The Boya BY-MM1+ Microphone itself
2) A mini microphone stand or a mini tripod
3) A 3.5mm extension cable

Hello Mark, I am planning to by new mic for UA-cam videos but I am going to use it directly from smartphones dictionary and then link the audie together with videos. What do yiu think with wich mic i need to go. With old vertion of mic Boya By mm1 or new vertion Boya By mm1 Plus? (Also I am on budget and little hesitant) Thank you for your kind reply!
Can I use boya by mm1 with my laptop to use audacity
Just finish watching that sound even more clearer like that idea.
This helped me alot. I almost ordered a scissor arm mic stand and i dont have space for it.
YES! Another amazing and helpful Video! 😍 thank you so much and stay safe!
Hey! It's you again! Thanks for dropping by! You didn't answer my last question, lol! What kind of videos do you make?
That was my bad I'm so sorry lol. Yeah, its kinda cool what we have the same name, hahaha. I'm planning to make videos on how to maintain PC temps and stream video games but haven't really made any moves yet 😂
hey mark this is the first channel to mention boya mm-1 hacks it is highly appreciatedd!!! though which level settings u r using on ur dslr thank you !!!!
Hi Mark, im wondering if you can make a tutorial on pc or laptop set up for this device?
Thanks Mark

Nice bag of tricks you have there Mark 👍 I have a wireless mic setup now for my outdoor shots and I love it. The main reason I did a wireless mic is because I like to do action shots from a distance and prefer not to film really close to myself. Anyways I appreciate all your tips and tricks 👍
Thanks, Jeremy! I use a wireless system sometimes as well, it's just that sometimes, a shotgun microphone help us with immersive audio as well, like the environment that were filming in! Stay safe and take care!
@@markfriday thanks for the tip, I have a shotgun mic and have never tried it
Good day, sir. 🖐️ Is there any degradation in the audio signal especially in high frequency parts because of a longer cable used?
Nice one. Only thing to be wary of is not to tap the table or bump the mic stand, since you are more directly using the mic without the shock mount vibration removal.
Hey there, buddy! You are right! Just have to be aware of possible vibrations that we might generate when being close to this setup. Thanks for pointing it out!
Hi there! I've watched all of your videos regarding boya BY-MM1 mic and they're really helpful in helping me to decide on buying the mic. I plan to use this mic for singing but I'm still unsure whether to get boya mic or just bm800 mic. If you happen to have experience in using bm800 mic, can you please suggest which one should I get and do you know if this boya mic can be used with a recording app called Bandlab? I'd really appreciate your reply, I've just subscribed and hope your channel will go far!
Hey, Hanz! I honestly think that you will be better off with the Boya, less gear means less friction, and less friction means you will be able to pump out videos much faster. The main point is to get the microphone nice and close and monitor your audio levels.
Hey Mark would a normal aux cable work for the MM1 if I want it to my pc?
Hey anyone looking for the answer to this questions, no it doesn't, you need to have decent hifi or professional audio grade cable, normal grade cable cause a lot of noise
very good content about boya
thanks

Hi! I love your reviews on Boya microphone. May I ask you with something, can we use the BY MM1+ to act like a microphone with a clip? What I mean is we clip the BY MM1+ to our shirt so that we'll not need to hold it.
Nice mark! I'm gonna try this hack too haha.. Thanks for sharing..
Hey there, Drew! Glad you like it! Keep making videos!
Hi, I've been watching a lot of your videos of this Boya MM1+ Microphone. I would like to get it to use with my Windows PC as its a nice compact unit, affordable and sounds great. My computer has a TRS input on the back for mic in and the MM1+ has a TRRS output. I know that it comes with a TRRS to TRS cable but it is a bit short for my setup. I could also buy an extension cable but I want to eliminate as many sources of noise as possible so I would like to buy a single cable that is ~1.5m. It's quite tricky to find a TRRS to TRS cable that is cheap. I am wondering, can I just use a TRS to TRS cable with this mic? I googled it and the results seemed to show that you can plug a TRS male into a TRRS female socket and it works but I was hoping you could test this for me just to make sure. I have found a good deal on the MM1+ and a nice gold plated TRS to TRS 1.5m cable so if you could confirm that my idea works then I will go ahead with the purchse. P.S. I know that using a TRS male in the back of the mic will cause the heaphone output to be non-functional.
Hey nice video! what kind of editing did you do on the sound? because i get audio quality worse than my phone mic when i use my boya mm1+
Hey, Abhi! No special editing was done. All I did was boost the audio to peak at -6 and the lowest at -12. By the way, please subscribe and be part of the UA-cam family!
Hi Mark! Thank you for this very informative video!
Question: Does the headphone slot in the microphone allow you to listen to the audio being played in the smartphone/laptop? Or does it just let you listen to the audio (voice) going inside the microphone?
I'm planning to buy this mm1+ as my first entry level mic.
Hi, Esteban Fulay! Thank you for commenting! Based on my tests, you can only use the headphone port as a way to listen to audio playback using smartphones. It doesn't function like typical headphone ports used to monitor audio real time like ones found on the Panasonic GH5 etc. What are you planning to record?
@@markfriday Hi, Mark! If it works on smartphones, then I guess it's perfect for me haha
I'm planning to just play around with audio recordings (VO's, Podcasts, Song Covers, etc.) and short films as well (just had a sudden urge to put all of my ideas into fruition by shooting it).
I've used most of your videos as guidance to complete my cheap yet very effective set-up 😂
Thank you again, Mark! All love, brother!
Thanks, Esteban! Podcasts are cool, would love to setup one of those! Have you started rigging up a lighting setup?
Very nice i liked it but whats the name of the long cable ...

Can this 3.5mm be used in smart phone (one plus)
I use one plus for vloging , and i want to extend my mic like what you did in the video , is it possible to do so?
Helloooo, can you make a video on how to use this microphone for videoconferencing/zoom calls?
Hey, Mickey, it's actually a lot easier than you think, whichever device you plug it in, it will automatically default into using that so you should be able to do this with no problem.
What mount do you use so you don't have it in your hand or what tripie do you recommend for that mic? I'm from Mexico I speak a little English

Is live monitoring possible in Mm1+
Nice Video sir.

Very good friend!
You're very much welcome! Stick around for more content on how to improve your audio!
Were you able to make the audio pass through work with a dslr?
Hi, Zugzwang! I was using a Canon M50 the whole time. Does this answer your question? Thanks for commenting!
does mm1+ have sound clipping problem in too windy areas. the mm1 often clipped sound in windy areas. Nobody has talked about this in mm1+, hence asking
Hi! What kind of extension do i need if i will use it to my dslr cam? Thanks
Hey, TeeJay! You will need a 3.5mm male to female extension cable! As for the length, it will be totally up you and your needs!
Nice video
Thank you so much!
I just bought my Ugreen extension cable (2m). And I'm having hum or ground issues. But when I switched back to the stock cable of my Boya (shorter ones) the noise is gone.
Hey, Patrick. Sorry to say but some cables can have a lot of buzz and hiss in them. Specially cheaper ones. But sometimes if you're lucky, you can get a good cheap one. I just happen to use the Rode VC1 which never failed me.
@@markfriday couldn't agree more. But when i used it with my in-ear monitor (to simply extend the length) there's no hum or hiss issues actually.
Hi bro, im using gg pixel 5 w the cable to change 3.5 jack into type c and my videos had no sound. I had a look on Gg as well but they dont have many info for this. Could we work on this, many thanks!
Hey! It's your video recording app. It's defaulting to the built-in mic. Try downloading "Open Camera" then go to settings then change the mic from built-in to external!
@@markfriday i found out that the root problem is from the type c to trs cable, we have to buy the boya cable also to make sure the mic could transfer signals well :D (and yes, i've tried the "open camera" app or another apps but for pixel it's not worked)
is the audio on the outro raw?
what's the dimater of the boya mm1? just concerned that there might be different mic holder diameters that won't fit properly with the mic
Hey, Pael! Funny that you asked! The MM1+ is slightly larger than the MM1 but each can use their shock mounts interchangeably with no problem. But for this little hack video that I made, the MM1+ had a more "snug" fit into the mic clamp. Hope this helped, Pael! Subscribe for more budget-friendly gear-related videos coming soon! Stay safe and take care!
Mark Viernes okay. Maraming salamat! Maybe will just wrap foam around it for a snug fit 😅
@@icollectwade or you could get one with an adjustable mic clamp instead of this one which will give you a cleaner setup than with a foam.
if boya mm1 is 1 meter away from subject, does we still receive the same quality sounds like yours?
Hey, Chin. You will have to increase gain a little bit but 1 meter should still be a good distance. I would stop using a shotgun mic if the mic has to be more than 3 meters away. By that case, I would go for a lav mic. So in your case, you should be fine!
the mm1 plus sounds so low on my pc ,please help
May I ask how did you fit your boya into the mic holder? My boya by-mm1 doesn't fit at it
Hey there! If it doesn't fit, you could put some duct tape on the inside of the mic holder to make the gripping a bit thicker!
@@markfriday I found an alternative 19mm mic holder at Andoer and it fits perfectly with the Boya microphone. Thank you nonetheless. BTW your microphone Boya videos are great! ✨
Hi Mark, I am looking to buy this as a mic for my pc. I will be using my dslr as a webcam using nikon web utility with original data cable and this one as a mic for my zoom calls. Since both of them will be feed straight into my pc separately, will there be any sync issues? Thanks!
Hey, Jack! May I know what model your Nikon is? Is it one of the newer ones that came out with streaming functions?
@@markfriday Hi Mark, mine is D5300. Nikon launch web utility to use the camera as a webcam without additional equipment.
Then it should work with no problem. Older models struggle with this.
@@markfriday cheers mate.
I got you! Let me know if you need anymore help!
Very useful video... Can I use any kind of 3.5 mm extension cable??
Hey, Babu! Yes, you can! Are you planning to run it into a camera or smartphone?
@@markfriday smartphone... Thanks for ur reply
Sure thing! Do you have the MM1 or the newer MM1+?
@@markfriday I have...And its very good.. But my work purpose i have to extend the mic position..so i asked u..
I mean which one do you have? MM1 or MM1+?
Question (If allowed). I have a BY-MM1+, but the only wires it has connects to smartphones and cameras. Are normal two way wires (both can be inserted) compatible with it?
Hey Reesies puffs, of course question is welcomed!
What device are you trying to connect the mic with? For smartphone or laptop, you need a TRRS (3 lines) to TRS (2 lines) cable. For camera, you need a TRS TO TRS. Always connect the TRS to the microphone insert.
@@markfriday I think its a trs. I am using my laptop
Is Boya BY-MM1 can’t be put in a microphone swing arm?
Hi, Rainier, you can! Just that my table's edges are a bit narrow/too close to the legs with the bottom base support so I can't really clamp it securely but yes, a microphone desk arm would be good!
Can we use it for boyamm1
Yes! It works for both MM1 and the MM1+!
my boya audio quality bad at arm length
The extension cable is it TRRS or TRS?
Hey, Azlan! It's male to female 3.5mm TRS!
@@markfriday thanks
@@cgazlan you're welcome! Please subscribe!
I just started my youtube channel this can help me a lot to grow☺️. Thank you for letting us know.
Can Boya Mm1 simple Can also Extended ?
Yes! You most certainly can! For sure!
Can you link the microphone stand?
Here you go, Odayne!

@@markfriday thanks
Are they same price?
Hey, Misthios! Do you mean the MM1 and MM1+? Yes, they're are roughly the same price.
Does any 3.5mm extension cable work? I found one on facebook, it’s 3 meters tall. I fear it won’t work and I’d waste my money. Thanks!!
Hey, Laki Saki! Actually the length just depends on how long you need it to be! If you think you need that much, then go ahead! By the way, please subscribe and be part of this community!
@@markfriday Good day, sir. 🖐️ Is there any degradation in the audio signal especially in high frequency parts because of a longer cable used?
Wow the sound is great. Can you tell me Is it true it works well with a mobile phone to start videoing with it. I have an Android
Hey, Pauline! Yes! I used this microphone with my Xperia 1 II and it worked wonderfully! Please subscribe and be part of this community! More videos like this to come!
@@markfriday brilliant thank you.
Already subscribed :)
Or,you can get a cheap full size microphone stand (in my country you can find them for a 1/2 of the cost of mm1) and boom the mic just out of the frame.
Good idea, sbozinovic! Thank you so much for your input! I agree! The full size one is good and very much a good investment, but usually, for people who do video games/streaming or sing, they want the microphone to be in frame. What kind of videos do you make, by the way?
@@markfriday I am a professional tv cameraman and director of photography. I've shot almost every format there is, except feature movie and porn 😉. But my favourites are the documentaries.
I'm relatively new to this budget gear thing and audio side of the work (mostly I've used my television's equipment or rented gear for projects and worked with sound guys) but the sound people I work with are great teachers.
That goes to show you that you can learn something new even after 20+ years of professional work 😁
@@markfriday Btw, I own BMPCC 4k, Zoom H5 and a lot of various budget lighting fixtures plus a Panasonic UX90 eng camera. I use them for low budget projects (for a high budget and more demanding ones, I rent - I've found that to be more cost effective). I actually bought mm1+ to be my backup mic since it is adequate if you respect it's limitations, small enough to always have it in the bag and quite solidly built. When I don't need something "serious" like sennheiser or similar (that I borrow or rent 😁) I use cheap Boya m1 lavaliers that turned out to be quite a find. For wireless I own Rode Wireless Go with a lavalier - that is a magnificent peace of kit. Oh and I own a Senn e935 that I use for eng.
Can we use it for mobile
Absolutely! Of course you can!
Good video im buying a gorilla pod now 👍🏻
Go for it, Musa! A Gorillapod is one of the best investments you can make for your filmmaking kit, it will last you forever.
I think MM1 is smaller size than MM1+. So MM1 can also fit inside that microphone stand?
Hi, Eddie! I tried fitting both the MM1 and the MM1+ on the microphone stand's clamp and the both fit perfectly because the clap is tensioned so it can clasp very easily. Which one are you planning to get?
@@markfriday I like how you setup your microphone near you and it doesn't look ugly at all. And I only have MM1 (I decided to buy after I watched your review 😃.) That's why I want to make sure it does fit well.
@@eddieminn thanks, Eddie! Planning to release another video on an idea on how to mount the microphone off frame as well! Please subscribe and stay tuned! Stay safe and take care!
Is it a good mic for podcast?
Hey, Mohammed! Yes it is! I use it for Zoom calls!
@@markfriday tanks
You're welcome! Subscribe for more filmmaking related hacks in the future!
@@markfriday if I use the by-mm1 will it give me the same result?
Yes! I actually use the MM1 more than my MM1+ whenever I use it with my Canon M50. I use the MM1+ with my GH5 and smartphone.
the mics volume is very low so pls tell me how to fix that?
Hi, Shark Tank! I will try to help you! What are you using to record on?
@@markfriday hey bro
I saw your many comments. Some of them were incomplete, because of you too asking reply questions to the commenter. One good suggestion from me is try to answer the comments because it's useful for others who watching your videos. And also might got some work if they don't view your reply means the question is being incompleted. Thanks bro I hope you got my point
