thanks man, really needed this
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
I would like to make just a SLIGHT correction on something that was said at the beginning of the video when he is mentioning charging - if you turn it on, and it is flashing blue and red, that means it is not connected to the TX (transmitter). Had he plugged in the TX to the phone or computer, it would have immediately turned blue. That is NOT to say that it did not need charging. Best practice is, regardless if the device came pre-charged in the packaging, you should always fully charge it before first use. I just wanted to clarify that for everyone, that those flashing lights do NOT mean it needs a charge, it just means it is not connected to the transmitter. I hope that helps.
Thank you sir! Great point.
Hello. The receiver has run out of charge and I do not know how to charge it. When I connect it to the charger, the lamp does not light. As for the microphone, it charges normally and the lamp lights. Or it must be inserted into the phone and then I connect it to the charger. Please answer me.
@@Omaryousfi-of6iythe receiver is powered by the device; it does not need to be charged separately
Do you know if I can buy the receiver for USB C and sync it with the same microphones? Don’t want to have to buy the whole set again, just want to change de receiver.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Mine is constantly flashing blue and red even when I have the thing plugged into my phone. Idk if I’m not charging it right or what is going on because when I plug it in to charge its still flashing blue and red. I tried to plug the mig into the receiver thing and charge them both together and idk how to tell if it’s charged or even workeing
Thanks for the review bro, helps alot
No problem 👍 Thanks for watching! I appreciate it!
Thanks for the great concise video. A small test on a noisy environment like on the road with the nc and without the nc would have been nice too.
Glad it was helpful! I'll do that next time. :)
Thank you very much, it was helpful.
You're welcome!
Thanks for your video.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks! 🙌
Beneficial Video👍 Would this work for GoPro Hero 11, too? You said any USB-C compatible devices would work. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
It should. I've never used a GoPro Hero 11, but if it has a UBS-C port, then it should work with this mic. Thanks for watching!
It will, with a media mod.
Thank you for making this video. It would've been great if would show how to configure it in GarageBand
Thanks for watching! Great suggestion. It was basically plug in play. All I had to do was go to GarageBand>Settings>Audio>Devices and make sure the input/output was set to the wireless mic and computer. I did the same things on my Mac settings as well. Just made sure the audio input/output settings were correct. As for the sound levels, I just used a basic audio track with no effects. Super raw, but it got the job done. Hope that helps!
@@blogwithben thank you for your reply. So you’re saying that you selected the inter microphone option and recorded the audio. Is that correct ?
I just purchased this today - the NC is amazing when turned on - saw another demo of guy standing next to a busy road he turned on NC and all the car noise disappeared- can’t believe how cheap this is and the quality sound quality is amazing
That's great! Yeah I was really impressed with the NC for the price as well. That is what sold me. I'm glad you like it too! Thanks for watching!
@@blogwithben I haven’t got it yet - should arrive tmrw - there’s no way to monitor the volume levels though is there?
Hello. The receiver has run out of charge and I do not know how to charge it. When I connect it to the charger, the lamp does not light. As for the microphone, it charges normally and the lamp lights. Or it must be inserted into the phone and then I connect it to the charger. Please answer me.

@@Omaryousfi-of6iywhat are u talking about - the receiver doesn’t have a battery to charge - the usb port in the receiver is used to charge the phone while the receiver is connected - did u not read your instructions??
good job!! can i record with the iphone as well woith de mac book? because i read that it only work with iphone but not mac computer. could you please clarify this?
Hi! Thanks for watching! This particular model in this video only works a USB C port. However, they make iPhone models here www.amazon.com/BOYA-Microphone-Omnidirectional-Lightning-Recording/dp/B0BN7G8W1K?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&smid=A33GNMD9C0YBL5&th=1
How to charge the reciever? I am using Android but once i connect it to the phone it doesn't turns blue
@@blogwithben
My laptop does not have usb type c for the receiver. Can you get an adapter cable for this? Would it be usb c female to usb a male? The ones I see seem to say they are only for charging devices.
Great question. I haven't tried that type of adapter before, but it should work. :)
Does the LED blink when the mic is fully charged?
Hello. If you connect the receiver at your laptop the same time you speak its coming out from the laptop speakers?
Hey! Thanks for watching! No, because I set the output to one source...like my external headphones. So whatever audio is leaving my wireless mic will do so through the set output.
Another question: can I just assume I can charge the microphone through the transmitter via the cable?
I believe so.
I bought their 2 pack set BY-V20. Both of the mics are really quiet and I have to boost gain by 12dB in Audacity to get a reasonable volume. How much gain did you add in your example?
Thanks for watching! I didn't have to boost the gain up that much. I was using Garageband on my Mac, just FYI.
Did you notice any self noise when you boosted the gain?
@@AetherScout Yeah.
I'm considering to purchase it. Well I'm just recording videos playing piano and my android phone's mic is a little crap and the sound is bad. Is this mic good for this? I mean to fix the sound little bit? 😊
Hi! Thanks so much for watching! Yes, this mic will improve your audio recording quality! I love that you're using it to record music too! :)
Did you ever try the 2 mic setup? Im having interference when im using both at the same time..
Hey! I actually have not tried to dual mic setup yet. Are there any "environmental" factors that may be causing the interference?
Hi, I'm planning to buy this mic but I saw from one shop that for those phones with a 3.5mm audio jack, this device won't work. Can you enlighten us with what it means? Or does it really mean I cannot use this mic if the phone I am using has 3.5mm audio jack?
Thanks for watching! This particular mic works with USB C compatible devices. They have a lightning version for iPhones, but if you have a 3.5mm audio jack then you may want to try something like this www.walmart.com/ip/USB-3-1-Type-C-Male-To-3-5mm-Headphone-Earphone-Jack-DAC-Female-Adapter-Cable-US/5164464987 I've never used this so I can't comment on it's effectiveness.
If it supposed to be used for an iphone can i use it on android phone with a lighting to usb c adapter?
Hi! Thanks for watching! This particular mic is for USB C ports. However, they have a lightning version that you can check out here www.amazon.com/BOYA-Microphone-Omnidirectional-Lightning-Recording/dp/B0BR3S4KPD
i have a problem, my boya mic is perfectly working, but now i have iphone 15 which is usb c, how to use it? i just need to buy an adapter? lightning to usb c? thanks
Hey! Thanks for watching! Yes, you can buy a USB-C to lighting adapter or purchase the BOYA lightning version of the wireless mic. They make both USB-C and Lightning versions. www.amazon.com/BOYA-Microphone-Omnidirectional-Lightning-Recording/dp/B0BR3S4KPD/
Hey, great video! I have a question
Can I stream live with this mic?
Connect it to a speaker and just talk or is it record only
Thanks for watching! I suppose you could stream with this if you have the input set to the wireless mic in your streaming setup. As far as using it as a live mic, I don't think it's built for that. As far as I know it's record only.
Hi
Just got this. Can I just unplug the transmitter from the mobile devices?
I realise that when the transmitter is plugged in, I cannot listen to the recordings. I have to unplug it to listen. But because I worry it may affect the mobile device, I chose to totally shut down, unplug it and restart again.
Please kindly advise.
Hi! Thanks for watching. No, you have to keep it plugged in to the device in order to use it. Unfortunately, I don't think you can monitor the recording while your recording on a mobile device.
Can you tell us how to change the language settings on the app?
Thanks for watching! To be honest, I'm not sure. I would reach out to BOYA support for that question. You can reach them here:

Can I charge the mic with Xiomi 20000mah power bank??
Hi, I was using it with window on my laptop and suddenly the window says that driver is unavailable..can anyone share the driver for boya v20.. thanks
does it fit with a phone case on thanks stuart
Hi! Thanks for watching. This mic was the USB-C version not the lightning version. However, I'm pretty sure the lightning version would connect with a case. As long as its not one of those huge Otter cases. :)
I have seen many videos of such microphones.
But for one question, I don't get an answer.
Can I also use it with the phone's voice recorder, or does the microphone only work during video recording?
Because I currently have a microphone with a jack plug, but the phone's voice recorder does not pick up the sound.
Hi! Thanks for watching! I wasn't able to use this version of the mic with my phone because I have an iPhone that uses an lighting connector. However, when I tested the lighting version of this mic with my iPhone, it worked with the "voice recorder" app on my phone.
@@blogwithben Don't mention it.
And thank you very much for the answer.
I purchased this mic with lighting. I can use this with my iphone 13 butHow can i connect this with my macbook air 2017 model intel core i5? Please help!
Thanks for watching! If you purchased the BOYA lightning version, you'll either need to purchase a lightning to usb-c adapter www.amazon.com/lightning-usb-c-adapter/s?k=lightning+to+usb+c+adapter or purchase the usb-c version of the BOYA wireless mic. At least I think the Macbook Air 2017 uses USB-C. Do you know what type of ports your Macbook has?
@@blogwithben there are two usb 3.0 ports, one 3.5mm jack port, port for card read, charging and one other port having ‘lightning type arrow symbol’ i don’t know its terminology.
Would the the usb c work if your phone has a case on it or does the phone case need to be taken out?
That's a great question. It probably depends on how thick the case is. I would take the case off to be safe, but you'd probably have to test it with and without the case on. Thanks for watching and good luck!
I had a usb c, i bought now lightning one. Can i pair the lightning receiver with the mic how came with the usb c?
That's a great question. I haven't tried that before, but I would think that the mic would pair with both types of receivers. If you have both, test it out and let me know please! Thanks so much for watching!
Aparently cant pair them.
Hello. The receiver has run out of charge and I do not know how to charge it. When I connect it to the charger, the lamp does not light. As for the microphone, it charges normally and the lamp lights. Or it must be inserted into the phone and then I connect it to the charger. Please answer me.
Hi! Thanks for watching! If the receiver isn't lighting up when you plug it in then you may have a faulty cable. Do you happen to have another cable you could try?
@@blogwithben tank your
Thank you for good video. You inform very good.
I want ask some question
I want take this model but I want use with İphone. Can I use? I have Type-c to lightning convertor. Can I use with this convertor?
I don't want buy special model for iphone because I can need Type-c sometimes also. I want buy type-c and use with iphone. Did you try this?
and I am thinking one more microphone model. ULANZI J12. You know this? If we will compare Ulanzi and Boya which better? Which I should buy? Thank you for your interest.
If you have a converter, you should be able to use this mic, but I haven't tried it so I can't be 100% sure. Also, I've never used ULANZI J12, so I can't comment on the difference between it and Boya. However, I like Boya and it was very easy to set up.
Can i use it on a computer? Can i use a speaker like i'm gonna replace the headset for WFH?
Hi! You can plug it into a USB C port and use it on you computer. What are you using to record the audio?
Does it work on android with an iphone to type c converter ?
I'm not 100% sure what you mean. What is an iphone to type c converter? A lightning to usb-c adapter?
I have terrible sound with this in phone camera, is there some way to fix this please?
Hi! Thanks for watching! I'm not saying your item is defective, but I get great sound when I use the iPhone version of this wireless mic. You could try returning it and getting a replacement. What is so bad about your sound?
How do you record on the laptop with the mic...?
I use Garagaband. It's a DAW for Macs. That lets you record audio on your computer. If you are using a PC, try Audacity www.audacityteam.org/ Thanks for watching!
How do you charge the receiver?
Hi! Thanks for watching and great question. It's the same as the mic. There is a USB-C port in the side of it. You can plug the charging cable in it and charge the receiver that way.
Nice :)
Thank you! Cheers!
Can you hear a sound if you put some headset or headphones? Please I need your response ☺️ Thanks a lot!🎉🎉🎉
Hi! Thanks for watching! Yes you can, but it depends on your method of recording. For example, I'm using Garageband to record my audio and there is a setting where I can monitor my recording via my computer. Does that make sense?
Thank you so much! Thats what I want to hear about! You perfectly mention about garageband! ❤️ God bless you!
Can you please explain ur question .. I'd like to know what you meant
is there a way to use this mic on my a7 iii ?
Hey! Thanks for watching! I'm honestly not sure. You could try using an adapter to connect the receiver to the camera. www.ebay.com/itm/145597387479
Why my Boya cable connected to phone are not lighting?
Hi! Thanks for watching! The mic in this video uses a USB connector so it wouldn't work with a device that uses a lightning connector. You would need the lightning version. You can get that here www.amazon.com/BOYA-Microphone-Omnidirectional-Lightning-Recording/dp/B0BR3S4KPD?ref_=ast_sto_dp
Is this compatible with samsung a54 4g?
Hey! Thanks for watching! If the Samsung a54 4g uses a USB-C port, then yes it will work. :)
Can we connect it with HP laptop?
Hi! Thanks for watching. I've never used it with a HP laptop, but I assume it has a USB-C port. If so, then this mic will work with it.
Does it work on Insta360 X3?
Hi! Thanks for watching! I've never used that, but if it has a USB-C port, then it should work just fine with this mic.
My transmitter is not lighting up even after I connect it my phone
Thanks for watching! Have you tried rebooting everything? Also, have you charged the unit overnight just to be sure everything is completely charged? Try that and see if that helps. If not, I would reach out to BOYA support. You can contact them here:

But u can’t monitor the audio thru headphone while recording?
Hey! Thanks for watching! Yes, you can monitor through the device you're plugged into.
@@blogwithben By bluetooth headphone? Because the Boya would take up my lightning connection.
I just bought the lightning version and I wasn't able to monitor my audio unfortunately.
Can I use it on Facetime?
Yes, it will work for Facetime when connected to an apple device.
Does the transmitter need to be charged?
Thanks for watching! If I recall, yes it does. You plug it into the computer to charge. It's been a while though. I'll need to revisit the user manual and double check.
@@blogwithbenis the blue or red light supposed to be on when the transmitter is being charged? Cuz i received mine but its not giving any light when im charging it..

Hey! Thanks for watching! You can get them pretty cheap through AliExpress bit.ly/3Lbzmku
@@blogwithben thank you so much Ben!
BUT IS IT BETTER QUALITY THAN BOYALINK?
Hey! Thanks for watching! I've never used the BOYALINK, but from what I can tell the BOYALINK is a "higher-grade" product that these wireless mics. These are probably entry-level mics compared to the BOYALINK which seem to be more professional grade. However, I still got some great sound quality from the wireless mic in this video.
