Cuy @cuy.bsky.social · 29mThe "main" microphone is in the bottom, to be near the mouth while talking. An additional microphone in the top can help with noise reduction (top mic signal is subtracted from bottom mic, so anything that is equally loud on both mics is removed). So it doesn't matter which way around you hold it. 000
