The white B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Very Low Sensitivity, with Detachable 4-Pin Hirose 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 is the least sensitive mic and a good choice for instrument applications, opera, or where the microphone will be positioned very near the mouth. 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 4-pin Hirose connector for direct connection to Audio Technica ATW-T1801, ATW-T201, ATW-T210, ATW-T210a, ATW-T27, ATW-T31, ATW-T310, ATW-T310b, and ATW-T51 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.

Very low, mic near user's mouth.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. My camera audio inputs are XLR. What adapter is recommended to go from 3.5 mini to XLR? Does anyone make a camera mount XLR system?

A: I use a mini plug to xlr adapator I bought through B&H . Not very expensive. However i must say I was not happy with the mic provided with the system. I had to buy another the expensive mini mic. (269 or so) I also don't like that one unit is powered by 2 aa bateries and the other is rechargeable. I like systems where both are AA battery. Sony or Sure systems are better.

Q: 2. Is the receiver unit dual band meaning can I use transmitters sending signal to one receiver unit?

A: The System 10 receiver is only capable of receiving a single transmitters signal simultaneously.

Q: 3. Would this Audio Technical System 10 work well with Sony A7S?

A: Yes. Any camera that has an 1/8th inch stereo mic input. Keep in mind the input level adjustment is in an odd place under the battery hood. It can typically be left all the way up unless you are experiencing distortion. Otherwise you have to remove the battery hood and adjust it with this little tool. It has never been an issue for me, but just a heads up.

Q: 4. Can this be used without a camera? Can I record direct to my Mac using an Adobe Audition or Garage Band type application?

A: Yes if you have the adapter or interface for the Apple plug. I use the Tascam iXZ for Apple. You will also need an adapter to make it a 1/4 plug.

Q: 5. So what you're saying is the receiver has an internal battery that will need to be recharged? So it's useless until charged? Is the li-ion battery replaceable on the receiver? Please say it is.

A: This transmitter runs on 2x 1.5 V AA (not included). Standard alkaline or rechargeable AA cells may be used. The receiver portion includes a 3.7V rechargeable Li-ion battery that must be charged prior to use. it is not user replaceable.

Q: 6. I have AT 3000 series wireless microphones, are the connectors on my bodypacks compatible with the System 10 connectors?
