-
The tan B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Low Sensitivity, with Detachable 4-Pin Hirose Connector for Sony 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 ideal for use as a head mic in theater. 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 Sony DWT-B01, DWT-G01, DWT-S01, and DWT-V01 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.
Low, head miking for theater.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Will this mic work with other transmitter packs other than sony? Looking for a cardioid lapel mic for Saramonic packs.
A: The Sony ECM-X7BMP will only work with the Sony UWP wireless systems. We currently do not carry any cardioid lavaliers for saramonic wireless packs. As the brand gains popularity, it is possible other manufacturers may decide to make a solution for saramonic transmitters.
Q: 2. I have a UTX-B2 transmitter and need to purchase another mic. Will this one work or if not can you tell me which will? I don't want to spend $250.00
A: This lavalier is compatible with your SONY bodypack transmitter . It offers the requisite 1/8 locking 1/8 mini connector.Here is another compatible choice as well: Sony - ECM44BMP Electret Condenser Microphone... B&H#SOECM44BMP
Q: 3. Does the receiver have enough audio output to power a line level signal?
A: Yes, the Sony URX-P41D Dual-Channel Camera-Mount Wireless Receiver in the Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System has an output level adjustment in its Menu options. You can set the level in 3 dB increments from –12 dB to +12 dB (full line level).
Q: 4. According to other Q&A's, this mic is not compatible with other setups. Dare I ask why? Seems a standard TRS setup should work?
A: Sony uses a different wiring scheme and locking connector than other manufacturers of 3.5mm microphones. Most 3.5mm microphones use what we would call the "Sennheiser" style of wiring, which is more or less the universal standard. Sony is the exception, and only mics specifically wired for Sony systems will work with them - ergo, Sony-wired mics will only work with Sony systems.
Q: 5. Does it work with UWP-D11 devices?
A: Yes, the ECM-X7BMP is compatible for use with UWP-D11 transmitters.
Q: 6. What frequency should I buy doing most of my work in Tampa, FL?

Q: 9. What frequency recommendation for Hawaii and is there a website that can best help us find out what frequency is free while traveling for work?
A: All three of Sony's UWP-D frequency bands are compatible for use in Hawaii. The UC14 frequency band (470 to 542 MHz) is the best option and the UC25 band (536 to 608 MHz) is nearly as good. The UC90 band (941 to 960 MHz) will also work. Each band has 2,772 auto-scan frequencies so chances are very good that you will be able to find a clear frequency to use anywhere in the US, Canada, or Mexico.
