BOYA BY-AM1 Audio Adapter

Boya's BY-AM1 is a two-channel audio mixer. You can use the BY-AM1 for dynamic and condenser microphones, electric instruments and other line / mic signals. BOYA has developed the BY-AM1 in a metal housing, where the front is made of plastic. No battery is needed; power is supplied via the USB port.

CONNECTIONS

The front

There is a button for phantom power on the front of the BY-AM1. When pressed, the two XLR / 6.35mm ports on the left side receive 48v phantom power. There are also two rotary knobs on the front, with which you can individually adjust the sound level of the two XLR ports, which is passed on to your computer via the USB port. Below these knobs are buttons that switch between a line (microphone) and instrument signal. On the front there is also a 6.35 mm output for headphones. For this we recommend the BY-HP2 headphones, which you will find with the optional accessories. To connect the BY-HP2, use the 6.35 mm to 3.5 mm adapter, which is included with the BY-AM1. You can listen in without any delay. You can adjust the volume of the headphones with the small rotary knob located above this jack. You can also completely switch the audible signal on and off with the slider on the front of the BY-AM1. With the large rotary knob on the front you can adjust the volume of the sound from the speakers, which you have connected to the 6.35 mm on the back of the BY-AM1.

The back

On the back of the BY-AM1 is a USB-B port, which you connect to the USB-A port of your computer using the supplied cable. This allows you to process all incoming sound live in your favorite audio software (e.g. Audition, Logic or Audacity). There is no need to download a driver; the BY-AM1 is automatically recognized by your computer (Windows or macOS). There are also two 6.35mm line outputs on the back to connect to the speakers in your studio. You can listen in live without any delay.

The left side

On the left side of the BY-AM1 are two combined XLR and 6.35mm inputs, to which you can connect a microphone or instrument.
