- Product Code: ga79958
-
The black B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Low Sensitivity, with Hardwired 1/4" Connector for Line 6 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 1/4" connector for direct connection to Line 6 TBP06 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. Can 1 mic be recorded in stereo?
A: Yes, when set to Mono Mode, the Saramonic Blink 500 Pro B2 2-Person Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System can output a single microphone signal through both the left and right channels of the receiver.
Q: 2. Does this unit capture 32 bit float?
A: Rode will publish something soon to shed some light about the Record vs. Export file formats and how it relates to 32 bit float export.
Q: 3. Does this come with 2 lav mics
A: No, external lavalier mics for the Wireless Go and Wireless Go II systems are sold separately. The transmitters from both systems have built-in omnidirectional microphones so the external lavalier mics are an optional accessory.
Q: 4. Not being a pro sound guy so I'm trying to avoid Sennheiser products, I'm looking for solutions to these uses: First, will it work with BMPCC 4k-8k? 4k does not have a hot shoe. Second, I'm setting up podcasts with up to six speakers using different cameras. How can I configure this with Rode ll? I am using Black Magic Atem Mini Pro switcher that has four html inputs and 2 mic connects. At any rate, what about compatibility?
A: The Rode Go will plug into the Black Magic (or any compatible device) using the 3.5mm jack. However, If you plan on havng six microphones on set (the limit wth this system is 8) I recommend connecting the microphones into a mixer then taking the output of the mixer into the ATEM.
Q: 5. can i use headphones to monitor?
A: Yes, you can use headphones to monitor the audio. If you use the USB-C output on the receiver, the 3.5mm jack can be used with headphones. As another option, you can use a stereo Y-cable such as the Kopul 1/8" Stereo Y Cable (B&H # KOHPSSM) or Hosa Technology Stereo Mini (3.5mm) Male to 2 Stereo Mini (3.5mm) Female Y-Cable - 6" (B&H # HOYCSMM2SM) to split the 3.5mm stereo output signal into two stereo outputs, just as you would if you were using two sets of headphones to listen from output. One side can connect to the input on your camera, recorder, mixer, etc. using the original 3.5mm TRS output cable or a different stereo aux cable, and you can connect headphones to the other side.
Q: 6. What is the difference between mic in and line in mode and in which case need to be setup each mode
A: Mic in is for when. you are using the internal mic or the included lavalier. Line-level mode is for the connecting the output of line-level devices like a mixer, music player etc to the transmitter.
Q: 7. Does the Rode Wireless Go II transmit the audio between the transmitter and the receiver in 24bit or 32bit?
A: The Rode Wireless Go II performs A/D conversion at 24-bit resolution, and 24-bit audio is transmitted to the receiver.
Q: 8. Wil it work with a Sennheiser ME 4 Cardioid Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector ? Will it provide voltage ?
A: The input on the Rode Wireless GO II transmitter is standard 3.5mm TRS non-locking connector. The transmitter will supply the appropriate voltage (plug-in power) that the mic requires to function. However, the Sennheiser ME 4 uses a 3.5mm TRS locking connector which may not attach properly to the transmitter since its input is not threaded like those on Sennheiser wireless transmitters and the mic's locking ring has no thread to lock onto.
Q: 9. Is this system expandable?
A: The Rode Wireless GO II Single 1-Person Compact Digital Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System/Recorder Kit comes with a single transmitter, but the Wireless GO II receiver does have two channels so it can be used with two transmitters. Rode does sell the Wireless GO II System with two transmitters, but at this time Rode does not offer the transmitter for purchase separately, so it is not possible to order a second transmitter and easily expand a system that was purchased with a single transmitter. For that reason it is best (and more economical) to purchase the system with two transmitters now if you will want to use it to record audio from two people. The other option is to purchase another complete Wireless GO II System later to accommodate a second person. The Rode Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System/Recorder Kit (B&H # ROWGIIK) is the same kit with two transmitters and two Rode Lavalier GO Microphones.
Q: 10. How do you connect multiple rode wireless go sets together for a single source?
A: You can connect the output from the wireless receivers for multiple RODE Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone Systems to separate input channels on a mixer and then you can send the audio output from the mixer to a single input source.
