This is so informative, Thank you!!

[@camtono]

The cable you need for using the mics on a PC/laptop still depends. Some PC/ laptop only have 1 jack slot for a combined headphone/mic so that is when you would need the TRRS (smartphone) end of the cable. If your PC has a dedicated line input for mics, then you would only need the normal TRS cable.

[@markfriday]

Appreciate your input, Angelico!

[@bechoyvlog753]

Hi Mark! Thank you for this informative vlog on MM1+ it was mentioned that this works great with smartphones, and does that include iPhones as well? Do we need a separate TRS to TRRS jack for this to work also? (Aside from of course the lightning jack to 3.5mm cable 😁). Thanks and more power!

[@bechoyvlog753]

Based on the other comments re connecting it to PC, I think it will really require the use of the TRS to TRRS cable for iphone usage.

[@markfriday]

Hello, Bechoy! My wife helped me try the MM1+ on her iPhone8+ and her iPhone12 Pro, and yes, you will need to use a y-splitter jack.

[@EmadApple]

How do you EQ the MM1? I have it but the sound is not great.

Go with the BY-MM1, you won't be disappointed in the audio quality. Pretty good for a cheap mic.

[@son8074]

Thank you so much for the video! Which of these 2 mics do you think is better for voice recording (plugged into a Zoom H1n)? I'm thinking of getting the MM1 but if the MM1+ does offer higher audio quality, I'm willing to pay the higher price.

[@markfriday]

Hey, Son! Glad that you asked this question because I literally tried both my MM1 and MM1+ on my good old trusty Zoom H1N and I came to a very good non-scientific conclusion! With the MM1 combo, I got a more cleaner sound because I was able to lower the H1N's gain by a large margin, while the MM1+ sounded a little more crispier/Rode micro-ish kind of sound (because I own the Videomicro too so I recognize its sound). Both were good but I liked the MM1 more. I would only use the MM1+ combo if I were to boom it over my head, therefore I can lower the gain too because the source (me) is very close. Hope this helps!

Insightful content there dude. Maybe I hear wrongly or stuff but around 4:45 did you mean the MM1 or the MM1+ for its preamps are too loud? My guess may be the MM1 instead cause I do notice it does pick up sound much louder here.

[@markfriday]

Oh my goodness! Haha! You're right, Calvin! I made a mistake saying that! Thanks for pointing it out, my bro!

[@renanoliveira9578]

The mm1 is Cardioid, and the Mm1+ is Super-cardioid. Does that a noticeable difference on audio quality? Mm1+ is supposed to capture less "external" noise, and be more focused on the subject. Does it works like that at all?

[@virendartripathi4645]

Im thinking to buy one for my phone which should i buy

[@pcvaldez]

Does the headphone jack work with apps like Facetime & Zoom? Can you hear the other party? Right now I have an audio splitter so I can attach both the old BY-MM1 mic & headphones to my iPad. I mainly use it for online teaching. Would appreciate your advise before I upgrade. Thanks.

[@markfriday]

Hi, Phil, yes, it does! It acts somewhat like a Y-splitter, splitting earphones and microphones out into different ports! You're using the MM1, right? The only downside is that you lose the ability to plug in earphones so you will absolutely love the MM1+!

[@fransmukidi2255]

[@KevinDsouza710]

Good question.

[@HolonicHD]

You mentioned to not use the mm1 if I am using Fujifilm, so do I go for the mm1+?

[@markfriday]

Hey, Zei Wei! Yes, go for the MM1+, the MM1 might be too loud for your Fuji. Because Panasonic and Fuji tend to have very loud in-cam pre-amplifiers. Like my GH5 can't handle the MM1. Hope this helped. Please subscribe and stick around for more videos about budget-friendly filmmaking gear!

[@jillyjollyjelly]

I heard the mm1 is sensitive to wind, will replacing the shockmount or the deadcat or the foam improve the quality?

[@markfriday]

Hey, Jill, all shotgun microphones are susceptible to wind due to the tube/tunnel-like shape so attaching the included windmuff/deadcat will really help protect it from gusts of wind. The MM1 has served me so well throughout the years and I can't believe the performance I got out of it despite the low price.

Currently have the old boya in DJI osmo action and I am planning on upgrading this but i don't know if it is worth. How's the audio quality at the back of the microphone?

[@markfriday]

Hey, Erixes! I tried the MM1+ with my Osmo Pocket 2, assuming it has the same pre-amp as all of DJI's small cameras, it will sound the same and slightly better on the MM1+ than the MM1. As for the sound of the mic from behind, it should reject it to a certain extent but not completely. Please subscribe and be part of this community!

[@markfriday]

Hi, Patrick! My fiancée had a 200D before but just sold it 4 months ago, I got a chance to play with it and the MM1 sounded better than the Rode Videomicro (mostly because the MM1+ wasn't out yet at that time and the Videomicro and the MM1+ are very audiblyvidentical in my opinion) so I definitely urge you to get the MM1.

Hi. I connected my Boya BY-MM1 mic to my Samson S20. I can record audio but I have to unplug the mic in order to hear playback audio. Unplugging the mic after each recording is impracticle and makes the mic unusable. I know you said that I can't listen to audio while recording, but do I have to unplug the mic each time to hear playback or is there a workaround? I saw a lot of KZbin reviews on the MM1 and none (except yours) mentioned this problem. Unfortunately I found your video after purchasing the mic. Thanks!

Hey Mark, which mic are you using in this video? Fan from India 💖

[@markfriday]

Hey, Manas! I still prefer the MM1 over the MM1+

[@sbozinovic]

Here's what I think... Headphone out on the mm1+ is just a pass through that allows you to use your headphones with the mm1+ connected to your phone. Otherwise you'd have to disconnect the mic whenever you wanted to use your headphones. Btw, you cannot monitor the audio as it is recorded when you use phone's internal microphone either. The similar is with the dslr. Usually there are separate input for the mic and output for the headphones. So the camera itself doesn't output audio through mic jack, hence the trrs to trs jack that is included with the mm1+ microphone.

[@sbozinovic]

Let's face it, mm1+ is low end microphone and mostly oriented to phonegraphers (phone videographers 😉). I chose it because I needed cheap backup mic and because of it's supercardioid pattern (which was kind of a mistake but...). The fact that it was a newer and (supposedly) better version of mm1 did have some influence... but it's like m1 and m1 pro lavaliers... As Mark said, if you don't need the extras (which are mostly phone oriented in this price range) you might be better of with the old and "battle tested" version.

[@markfriday]

I agree with you! Maybe they really targeted the smartphone users for this one because of the sudden need of content creation tools at this season where a lot of people are resorting to having to work from home, maybe having to use their smartphone a lot more than cameras because of ease of use or simply because they have no camera. By the way, I found out a way to monitor audio using smartphones! I am making a video on it right now!

[@markfriday]

Hey, BongRadar! Had that issue before too and there's a very easy fix to it! Let me explain, Your PC is on auto-gain mode, so it's constantly seeking for an audio source, so you will need to download a software that you can manually set gain levels so that it doesn't keep "sound hunting". Audacity and Audition are my favourites.

[@1000xp]

If both then you're better off with the MM1+. It may sound like I'm being biased, but I really like the sound of the MM1+ when using it with smartphones over the old MM1. The sound sounds a bit more "managed" even if you don't do so much post processing, you can get a quite crispy sound, but when I tried to use the MM1 with my Sony Xperia, it kept on clipping (peaking) and it would try to correct itself by lowering the gain but then after a few seconds, it would do it all over again and peak again. Sorry for rambling! Bottom line is, go for the MM1+! Hope this helps!

Yes! The MM1+ is a loud mic so using the H4N Pro's ability to adjust audio levels will help a lot with clarity and gain!

[@jacobreubenaglipa5669]

I wish you didn't put background music for the background noise of the microphone.

Bagus mana antara mm1 vs mm1+?

[@Vetrilife]

How could i connect mm1+ by android. It is not connected. What is the Solution??

[@markfriday]

If you connected it and it doesn't seem to switch the audio source to that microphone then you have to use a different camera app than the stock camera app. Try "Open Camera". This app is free and it allows you to switch the audio input from in-camera mic to external mic.

how does the mm1+ fair with rode videomicro

[@markfriday]

Hey, Johnny! If I were to use it with a smartphone I would choose the MM1+ but if for cameras, definitely the Videomicro!

[@BM-ic4cv]

@@markfriday Hello, for Cameras you prefer Rode , im looking for microphone for normal walking/travel vlogs for my Dji Osmo Action , which will be better choice in your opinion , Rode VideoMicro od Boya MM1+ ?

[@piccichele1364]

Which sound is better and loud?

[@markfriday]

Hey, Picci! The old MM1 would definitely be the louder one!

[@piccichele1364]

I want to know about comica cvm vm 10ii microphone....

[@SabrinaVideo]

Boya, Sairen, Movo, Bomge, Arimic, QISHKJ, Comica, Mamen,etc, etc, etc. There are a lot of identical mics like this. I would like to know who are real manufacturer or rebranded mics. Anybody knows? Are these brands the same?

[@newsteadyjlf76john47]

Believe all from china

[@SabrinaVideo]

@@newsteadyjlf76john47 Yeah but there some mics that are less quality than others

MM1 or MM1 Plus for Canon eos R? thanks

[@markfriday]

Hey, Mario! Definitely the MM1!

[@AceTritis]

@@markfriday I ask you why the Canon R has very good preamplification ... and it can get noise with the MM1 ... I like MM1 the smaller and lighter.

[@markfriday]

Yes, last year, I managed to test it with my friend's EOS RP and I still like the sound that came out of the MM1 over the MM1+.

[@DVLVideos]

is mm1 good for PC streaming?

[@markfriday]

Hey! It can definitely be used for streaming on PC! Just run a longer 3.5mm cable!

[@DVLVideos]
