The light beige B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Mid Gain, with 3.5mm Connector for PT300, PT500, and PT51 Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a water-resistant, miniature lavalier microphone for capturing high-quality audio. It can be used in a variety of applications such as a tie-clip lavalier in interviews, a hair-hidden mic for drama, a water-resistant mic for water sports and hurricane reporting, or simply a small mic to hide in a prop flower vase.

The B3 capsule is resistant to moisture (IP67), which allows for placement in the hair or on bare skin, and its omnidirectional polar pattern minimizes handling noise, wind noise, and plosives (popping). Furthermore, a variety of skin-matching colors are available. This B3's cable terminates to a 3.5mm connector for direct connection to PT300, PT500, and PT51 AKG wireless bodypack transmitters Additionally, a carrying case, two cable clips, a windscreen, and three protective caps are also included.

Looks great when you want to see it, virtually disappears when you don't. The B3 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 B3 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 B3 provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 140 dB for wireless applications. 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 B3 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.

Low, head miking for theater.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does it work with Canon EOS R

A: Yes it will.

Q: 2. Does this mic combo require use of a Sennheiser app for recording, or will it work with Filmic, the camera app, voice recorder, etc?

A: The free Rode Control app is required to use Rode's built-in features that allow you to record audio directly onto the Wireless Go II transmitters and to adjust the settings for the recorded files. But you can use the Wireless Go II as a standard wireless mic system to record the audio onto another device like a smartphone with the camera app, voice recorder, or Filmic app.

Q: 3. Latency?

A: 3.5ms-4.2ms

Q: 4. Will that future update allow multiple GO 1's transmitters to connect to the new go2 receiver? Aka could i add in my original one to have 3 Transmit and 1 receiver?

A: No. The Wireless Go II receiver has two channels and will only function with a maximum of two transmitters. Any future firmware updates would not create a third channel for the receiver.

Q: 5. I realize this question was already asked last year, but is there any auto-shut-off feature if I turn the "always" recording feature on? Wouldn't that like not make any sense? Who in their right mind would trust this to always record if it would just shut off after 15 minutes of not being connected to the receiver?

A: When the Rode Wireless GO II Transmitter is set for "Always" recording mode, the transmitter will start recording audio as soon as it is switched on and it will continue recording until it is switched off, regardless of whether or not it is connected to the Wireless GO II Receiver. This feature makes the Wireless GO II Transmitter suitable for use as a standalone field recorder. Additionally, when used in "Always" record mode, the mute function will not affect the on-board recording but it will mute the ability to transmit audio wirelessly.

A: The RODE Wireless GO II Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder has a limited one-year warranty which can be extended to two years with registration on Rode's website.

Q: 9. What is the best way to connect the receiver to a camera with XLR audio inputs? (One without mini plug audio input?

Q: 10. is the 3.5 mm output from the Receiver stereo (from each of the transmitters?)
