The white B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Standard Sensitivity, with Detachable cH-Style 4-Pin Connector for Audio Technica Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a very small lav microphone measuring one tenth of an inch in diameter. It can be used to capture audio for theater, broadcast, house of worship, and general lavalier applications.
This version offers the highest gain for general speaking such as in presentations or sermons. Built with a low handling noise and rugged construction, the B6 lavalier microphone can be easily hidden in a performer's hair or on costumes, ties, or behind a shirt button. It can also be attached to eyeglasses, for a secure, discreet, and convenient alternative to hair miking. The ultrathin diaphragm deliver a natural sound while its tiny size makes the B6 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection. The B6's aramid-reinforced cable terminates to a cH-style 4-pin connector for direct connection to Audio Technica ATW-T5201 wireless bodypack transmitters.
Additionally, the included swappable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. The B6 is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with a protective cap, which can be quickly removed for cleaning or replacement.

Looks great when you want to see it, virtually disappears when you don't. The B6 is easily hidden in hair or on costumes, with five colors to match clothing, hair, and skin tones. Use a felt tip marker to color the white caps for near-perfect concealability. Never suffer the hassle and degraded sound quality of under-clothing miking again.
The B6 is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps and works well in hair or on the body. The protective caps are easily removed for cleaning or replacement, and the aramid-reinforced cable gives it world-class survivability.
The B6 provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 140 dB on 48V phantom power. The aramid cable and thin diaphragm combine to offer low handling noise. The flat-frequency response accurately captures voice or instruments, and the small size makes the B6 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection.
Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. Versions are available for different speaking or singing styles, with high overload capability for recording instruments.
Standard, for most uses.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Are the gain changes made in the receiver or in the transmitter? If I set the gain lower, will it reduce the gain on the receiver's internal recording, too? Also, is the second channel internal safety track done as an analog reduction in the transmitter, or as a digital reduction in the receiver?
A: There is a gain control on the receiver which provides a three-stage pad to cut your output level in 12 dB increments. A single click of the gain control button allows you to select between high (0 dB), medium (-12 dB), and low (-24 dB) gain settings. The level icon in the middle of the screen indicates which gain setting is selected. An additional fine gain control mode can also be enabled in the Rode Central app which will expand the three-stage pad to a 10-stage pad, going from 0 dB to -30 dB in 3 dB increments. This allows you to precisely tailor the output level going to your recording device. It also provides access to an extra 6 dB of gain reduction, which is handy if you are using a recording device with high sensitivity. Be aware that the gain control only affects the 3.5mm output of the Wireless GO II, not the digital USB-C output. If you are using the Wireless GO II with a smartphone or computer and need to adjust the gain, you can do so in the app or recording software that you are using. The safety channel can only be activated in 'Merged' recording mode which combines the output of the two transmitter channels into a single summed output. When using the safety channel, you will have two channels of identical audio with the volume level on the safety channel reduced by 20 dB, preventing overload that could create distortion.
Q: 2. Can the 2.4 GHz wireless GO II system be used in an office environment that has 2.4 GHz WiFi without interference from each other?
A: In most instances, yes, you can use the Wireless GO II system in an office an environment that has 2.4 GHz WiFi without any issues. However, when using any 2.4 GHz wireless system results can vary.

Q: 9. Can you use this with the original Osmo Pocket? Is the right cable included if so?
A: If used with DJI's USB-C to 3.5mm Mic Adapter for Pocket 2 and Osmo Pocket (BH #DJOP35A), the Rode Wireless GO II Single Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder should be able to make a compatible connection to the Osmo Pocket via its included SC5 3.5mm TRS Memory Cable.
Q: 10. Can you use Rode Wireless Go II if you don't have an external mic? My camera doesn't have an external mic.
A: The only only way to connect a external microphone system such as the Rode wireless Go II is for the camera to have a microphone input, if the camera does not have a external microphone input the audio would have to be recorder separately into a audio recorder at that point the video and audio would have to be sync in post production.
