Far Field Noise Reduction (FFNR)

Problem: Open workspaces can be noisy with sounds from colleague chatter, office equipment and nearby meetings. When having remote conference sessions, your conversation can be disrupted by these noises and far-end participants will have difficulty hearing you clearly.

Solution: Far Field Noise Reduction (FFNR) picks up your conversations while reducing the distracting noise around you. YVC-330 has a 3 microphone array that can acknowledge the sound from your voice verse unwanted background noise. As a result, far-end participants can hear you loud and clear enabling better collaboration.

*When using SoundCap mode, the speakerphone can accurately calculate how far away sound sources are and effectively attenuate sounds from outside of the pick-up range (within 1 m [3.3 ft] radius). This ensures human voices from within 1 m radius are delivered clearly to remote participants.

Self-Silence

Problem: Even within the virtual walls of a conversation in an open workspace, there can be various surrounding noises that can be picked up. Whether it be the ringing of a phone, computer typing or shuffling of papers, sudden noises can be distracting especially to far-end participants.

Solution: The YVC-330 includes a self-silence function that automatically mutes the microphone when the conference participant is not speaking. By using Yamaha's Human Voice Activity Detection (HVAD) technology, the YVC-330 can detect human voice from other sounds in an instant. Participants can rely on a smooth conversation without unnecessary sound whether they are speaking or not.

Self-Volume Balancer

Problem: When using a speakerphone in open workspaces, speaker output can sometimes be too quiet or too loud when ambient background noise changes, causing missed information or an inconvenience to the surrounding workers. In some cases, there is also a risk of private information being heard.

Solution: With the self-volume balancer function, the YVC-330 automatically adjusts the volume according to the ambient noise to keep an appropriate speaker volume level at all times. Participants can conduct remote conferences in open spaces without failing to hear conversation, disturbing their surroundings and keeping meeting contents private.

Two daisy-chained units for about 10 participants in a meeting

Two YVC-330 speakerphones can be daisy-chained with an optional cable (YCBL-DC3M) to support about 10 participants in a meeting.

* Two daisy-chained units can work only in standard mode.

* A YVC-330 speakerphone can be daisy-chained with a YVC-300 speakerphone.

"Plug-and-Play" connectivity

No specific driver is required. With "Plug-and-Play" connectivity, users can begin meetings right away by connecting the YVC-330 and a PC with a USB cable. The high extensibility and connectivity support flexibility in many use cases, such as an instant conference call by simply connecting YVC-330 to a smartphone from any empty room.

Flexible connectivity

Equipped with various interfaces such as NFC compatible Bluetooth connection and Audio IN / OUT as well as USB, YVC-330 can be flexibly connected to any conference system with smartphones, tablets, video conferencing systems, while the simultaneous use of "USB + Bluetooth + Audio IN / OUT" (Audio mixer function) is also possible.
