-
The white B6 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Standard Sensitivity, with Hardwired TA4F Connector for Paso 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 offers the highest gain for general speaking such as in presentations or sermons. 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 TA4F connector for direct connection to Paso MW223 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.
Standard, for most uses.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Can you confirm if the Rode Central app has been proven to work with the new M1 Macs? Many audio interface apps are struggling with the new M1 chips Mac is using so I hope that has been addressed with this app.
A: Yes it will, It was specifically designed to be M1 compatible.
Q: 2. When you adjust the gain on the receiver (in either fine or the three basic increments) is it actually adjusting the gain on the receiver, or the transmitter? Will I still experience clipping on the internal recording on the transmitter, if I adjust the gain on the receiver to an appropriate level?
A: The gain actually raises volume on receiver if you are experiencing clipping use the control app to fine tune gain adjutments on the receiver also make sure what ever device you are connecting the Rode into make sure levels are between -6 to -8
Q: 3. Hello. Does this kit will work on an iPhone XI PRO to make facebook live pro audio or need additional equipment? Thanks in advance
A: The Rode Wireless GO II is compatible for use with iPhones, but may not work with Facebook Live. Apple iOS devices do work with the built-in mic for Facebook Live, but when starting up Facebook Live on iOS devices using an external microphone, the device only recognizes its built-in mic. While this is disappointing, iPhone users have found a way to work around this limitation by starting up Facebook Live using the internal mic first. After the live stream has already started, then go ahead and plug in the external microphone. For many iPhone and iPad users, this seems to do the trick. Give this a try before purchasing the Wireless GO II if you are specifically purchasing it to use for Facebook Live. The system does work on iOS for typical audio applications as well as for most other audio/video applications like the native iOS camera app.
Q: 4. is it possible to use these to amplify a speaker like in a lecture hall? our hosts get hoarse if they have to speak loudly enough for the entire class to hear
A: If you have a mixer in the lecture hall that is connected to an amplifier that is powering the speakers, then you can use an 1/8'' mini to XLR adapter like B&H # KOAXMMF to connect the Rode Wireless Go II to that PA system. The Rode Wireless Go II will not amplify a passive speaker.
Q: 5. Why did they not include a button on the wireless go II to begin and stop recording? i've spent over an hour trying to get it to record and it wont. firmware up to date and when connected to rode central on windows 10, no option to begin recording.
A: The Wireless GO II's on-board recording function is enabled and disabled via the RØDE Central app. Once the transmitter and receiver are paired, the recording begin automatically. This recording option is provided for back up purposes.
Q: 6. how many Rode wireless GO II single can I have on set, before the the signal start to disturbate?
A: There is no universal rule as to how many 2.4 GHz wireless sets can coexist in one area before problems arise, but it is generally thought that 2-3 sets is the limit in most cases. Results may vary based on the amount of interference present in the area from sources such as WiFi.
Q: 7. I've read that the units will power off after 15 minutes of inactivity. Does this apply to both the Tx and Rx units? I would like to build this into an installation where the Rx always stays on so that mics can be turned on/off as needed. Can I keep the Rx unit powered on while plugged into power even if there are no mics on for hours or days at a time?
A: The Rode Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder components will power off automatically after 15 minutes if they are not paired to each other. Even if the receiver is connected to a power source, if not paired, the device will power off.
Q: 8. Are they 2 recorded files (file #1 for mic #1 and file #2 for mic #2) or it is a one merged file (stereo for mic#1 and mic#2). Since there is only one output on the received, I would assume there will be only one channel. I am not sure if an XLR split could resolve that?
A: The Wireless GO II offers stereo or dual-mono output modes which allows the audio from each transmitter to be routed and recorded to a separate channel so you will hear one mic on the left and one mic on the right, or the audio from both transmitters can be mixed together and recorded identically to hear both mics combined on the left and right channels. Audio can also be recorded directly onto each of the transmitters and you would be able to download the separate recorded files from each transmitter onto your computer.
Q: 9. I see that it records up to 24 hours of internal memory but it only runs for 7 hours on a single charge, is it possible to power this with an external power bank?
A: Yes, you can power the Wireless Go II receiver and transmitters with an external USB power bank.
Q: 10. Can these be use a single person video shot
A: Yes you can use just 1 transmitter with the receiver in the Rode Go II to capture 1 person talking.
