The black Yamaha AG01 is a chic microphone with a feature set well suited for live streaming and podcasting applications. It runs on USB bus power. The mic features a cardioid polar pattern condenser mic capsule that picks up fewer undesirable background noises, as well as integrated DSP effects like EQ, compression, and reverb that you can use to create a more professional sound.

The AG01 can record audio at resolutions up to 192 kHz/24-bit using computers, iPads, and smartphones. The microphone includes a 3.5mm TRRS input/output jack for smartphones in addition to a 3.5mm TRS auxiliary input. The integrated digital mixer enables you to combine the microphone with various other sources, and the loopback function enables you to concurrently add audio from connected USB devices and stream to them without experiencing problems with monitoring.

The high-performance condenser microphone element in the AG01 uses a cardioid polar pattern to perfectly record the sound of your voice or musical instrument and to transform it into high-resolution audio (192 kHz, 24-bit) while excluding undesired background noise from the back or sides.

The AG01 has a 3.5mm stereo line input connector in addition to a condenser microphone audio input, as well as an improved 3.5mm 4-pole jack (TRRS) for smartphones that supports input and output. In Loopback mode, audio from USB-connected devices can also be included. With these features added together, this microphone can support a wide range of streaming styles that were previously impossible to accomplish without a separate mixing device.

Your microphone will probably be readily shown on-screen in the majority of streaming programmes. Your microphone must therefore appear as good as it performs. The AG01 features a distinctive and recognisable design that combines traditional and modern aesthetics. To suit your desire, you can choose between models with black or white backgrounds.

The AG01 has the same top-notch DSP effects as other models in the AG series, making it simple to apply COMP/EQ and REVERB to enhance your audio and obtain the best sound possible. Additionally, there is no delay because the inbuilt DSP chip processes these tools, which makes them very useful for live broadcasting when real-time accuracy is necessary. Additionally, you have the choice to totally turn off these effects if you want to use the AG01 to record unprocessed, raw recordings that you can edit afterwards.

Users with varied levels of audio engineering expertise can monitor and tweak the AG's DSP processing from any Windows/Mac or iOS device connected via USB using the AG Controller's two modes, Simple and Detail.

With its dedicated stand or installed on a desk arm, the AG01 is simply positioned on a desk or any flat surface, making it adaptable to practically any situation. You may take your fully functional streaming station wherever you choose by using it in conjunction with a portable battery.
