All-new AURA technology If you’ve ever used a modern camera, you know how convenient autofocus is. Now imagine autofocus for microphones. That’s exactly what RAY does. Its cutting-edge AURA technology uses sensors in the microphone body to measure a vocalist’s distance from the microphone. As the singer moves around, it intelligently adjusts the gain to compensate. Meanwhile, it also tweaks the sonic profile for a more consistent sound. AURA technology is particularly useful for livestreamers and vocalists who move around a lot while singing. Make your audio sound clearer and more consistent with AURA. Mute by Distance Another thing that sets the RAY microphone apart is its innovative Mute by Distance feature. Mute by Distance uses the AURA technology to monitor your distance from the microphone. When you reach a certain distance away, the RAY microphone will automatically mute the signal, preventing any unnecessary noise from entering your recordings. The microphone also retains a dedicated mute button, so you can cut the signal at any moment.
