Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sens, With Detachable Waterproof 2.5mm Connector For Lectrosonics Wireless Transmitters (tan)
- Product Code: ga39804
-
The tan B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Standard Sensitivity, with Detachable Waterproof 2.5mm 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 waterproof 2.5mm connector for direct connection to a Lectrosonics WM 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. Will this work on a RodeLink? It has the same connection, right?
A: The Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Mic has a similar connection and does plug into the RodeLink, however it does move around and not lock in totally.
Q: 2. how long is the cable from mic to xlr connection? What is the XLR connection, male or female?
A: Countryman specs out the cable length as 5 feet.
Q: 3. does this work with the zoom h1?
A: No it will not work with the Zoom H1 since this microphone has a XLR connection and the H1 does not. I use this mic with a ZOOM H5 and it works great.
Q: 4. Not really sure when they say M series. I have Lectro UM200c, will this work with my transmitter?
A: Yes. Just be sure to order it wired for lectrosonics, TA5F. Nice combo. You'll live it!
Q: 5. What's the sound quality compared to the sennheiser mke-2?
A: The MKE-2 out-performs the B3 in its sound quality, noise and SPL specs.
Q: 6. This mic has a 4 pin mini xlr female connector. I was told to get Shure RPM626 pre amp for this, but is there a 4 pin xlr mini male to male xlr cable?
A: We do not have a cable with the connectors you need, but please be aware that a cable with the right connectors does not replace the need for using a preamp which the RPM626 does include.
Q: 7. 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: 8. To be used hidden on clothes for film, do i need Standard or low sensitivity?
A: Mic sensitivity is related to how much gain you have to give the mic. A low sensitive mic would need more gain sent to it to get a good audio level, and is used for live stage use, or in a loud environments. The real issue you have to deal with when hiding a mic on clothes is keeping the head of the mic away from fabric rubbing on it. I would suggest a standard gain mic, and then utilize mic mounting solutions, such as the Bubblebee Industries Invisible Lavalier Microphone Covers, BH #BUBBIILC30. or the Remote Audio Foamies Foam Mounts for Lavalier Microphones (Set of 12, White), BH #REUFOAMIEWH. These products will protect the mic, and when properly placed on the talent, can provide the best sound, minus the clothing rubbing.
Q: 9. What if I want to use that with the lastest tascam recorder. Can we change the pin?
A: Yes, tranquil, make this change, that microphone is very good.
Q: 10. Does it work with de UWP- D11?
A: Yes it does.
