- Product Code: ga39801
-
The tan B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Standard Sensitivity, with Detachable TA5F Connector for Lectrosonics Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a very small lav microphone measuring one tenth of an inch in diameter with changeable protective caps, which provide moisture resistance and color options. The mic can be used to capture audio for theater, broadcast, churches, and general lavalier applications.
Built with a low handling noise and rugged construction, the B6 lavalier microphone can be easily hidden in hair or on costumes, or taped to a performer's face. The aramid cable and ultra-thin diaphragm deliver a natural sound while its tiny size makes the B6 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection. The B6's cable terminates to a TA5F connector for direct connection to a Lectrosonics SM, SMa, SMb, SMDa, SMDb, SMQ, SMQa, SMQV, SMV, UM400a, or UM450 wireless bodypack transmitter.
Additionally, swappable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or match other microphones. The B6 microphone is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. These caps 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. Any issues with using the Countryman B3 with the Zoom H1n?
A: This version of the Countryman B3 has a locking 3.5mm connector which is compatible for Sennheiser wireless transmitters and will not properly connect to the input on the Zoom H1n. B&H # COB3W4BZP / MFR # B3W4FF05BZP is the same Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Mic with standard sensitivity and a non-locking 3.5mm connector in black. It is listed as compatible for Azden wireless transmitters and will also work with the Zoom H1n. The mic does draw a lot of power so it will drain the H1n's battery quicker than other lavalier mics. As another option, you may want to consider the Countryman EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone in black, which is B&H # COMEMWSFF05B / MFR # MEMWSFF05BD3. The EMW requires less power and is designed for use with digital recorders.
Q: 2. Does it work with de UWP- D11?
A: Yes it does.
Q: 3. Can it be plugged in Tascam DR-40 without any additional adapters ?
A: No additional adapters are needed to plug this into a DR-40.
Q: 4. Will the 3.5mm locking also work for the Deity wireless systems?
A: Yes, this version of the Countryman B3 will work with the Deity wireless mic systems. The same mics that are compatible with Sennheiser ew series transmitters are also compatible with the Deity systems.
Q: 5. Is it fully compatible with Tascam DR-40 ?
A: Yes, this is compatible with a Tascam DR-40. Please make sure to turn on the 48v phantom power in order to run the microphone.
Q: 6. Will this work with a Zoom H1?
A: This model of the Countryman B3 is designed to connect to a Sennheiser transmitter that features a locking 3.5mm connector. We have had customers who claim the mic will function and the H1 is able to supply proper power to the mic as well. Unfortunately we are not able to confirm and generally do not recommend this mic for use with portable recorders.
Q: 7. HELLO WHATS MEAN (LS) OR (L4) CONNECTION TYPE?
A: The B3's cable terminates to a TA5F connector for direct connection to a Lectrosonics M185 or M187 wireless bodypack transmitter.
Q: 8. i can't buy two of tham, you know why?
A: We currently have plenty in stock, and there are no quantity restrictions. If you continue to have issues with our online ordering system, please give us a call at 800-606-6969 and a Phone Agent will be happy to assist.
Q: 9. Will this work with the Sennheiser XSW-D PORTABLE LAVALIER SET?
A: Indeed it will.
Q: 10. Can i use it with my Sony microdot Connector?
A: No, the Countryman B3W4FF05BSE B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with MicroDot Connector for Sennheiser Wireless Transmitters is wired specifically for direct connection to a Sennheiser SK 2012 wireless bodypack transmitter. Sony uses a proprietary wiring configuration which is different from the wiring configuration used by Sennheiser. As an option for the same microphone wired for compatibility with a Sony wireless bodypack transmitter that has a 3.5mm locking connector, you can use the Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with 3.5mm Locking Connector for Sony Wireless Transmitters - Black (B&H # COB3W4BSN). For the same microphone wired for compatibility with a Sony wireless bodypack transmitter with a Hirose connector, you can use the Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with Hirose 4-Pin Connector for Sony Wireless Transmitters - Black (B&H # COB3W4FF5BDS).
