The light beige Countryman B6 Lavalier Mic for Yamaha Recorders & Mid Gainfrom Countryman B6 Lavalier Mic for Yamaha Recorders & Mid Gainis a miniature lavalier microphone measuring only 0.1" in diameter. It features a 3.5mm locking connector and connects to select Yamaha Pocketrak recorders with audio on left and right channels. The B6 microphone provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 130 dB on 48V phantom power. The aramid cable, combined with the ultra-thin diaphragm, ensures low handling noise. The tiny size, combined with natural sound pickup, makes the microphone easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection.

The included changeable protective caps (+0, +4, and +8 dB) provide moisture resistance and allow you to adjust the frequency response to suit different applications or to match other microphones. Each of the three omni caps has a different high-frequency response characteristic that controls the amount of crispness or sibilance (response at 15 kHz). This microphone ships with the +4 dB protective cap attached, which boosts the perceived amount of presence in your sound while leaving the lower frequencies unchanged. You can switch to the 0 dB cap in case of problems when using this microphone with high-frequency feedback.

Q: 1. Will this MicroDot connector use with my DPA Microphones DAD6001 Microdot to 3-Pin XLR Adapter with Belt Clip ?

A: Yes, the Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sens, with Microdot Adapter for Sennheiser Wireless Transmitters can be used with the DPA Microphones DAD6001 Microdot to 3-Pin XLR Adapter with Belt Clip instead of using the included Microdot Adapter for Sennheiser.

Q: 2. Can I use the Countryman B3 connected to a Sennheiser AVX Wireless set? I would buy this instead of the more expensive MKE2

A: Yes, with the Sennheiser plug it will work. You'll have to adjust the sensitivity as it may be different from the mic you used on the transmitter before, but that's easy enough.

Q: 3. Can this mic be used on a Sony UTX-B03 transmitter?

A: That version wired for Sennheiser cannot be used with a Sony transmitter. Here's the same mic wired for Sony. B&H #COB3W4BSN.

Q: 4. Will this mic work with Tentacle Track E?

A: Yes, this mic can be used as a replacement or upgrade for the lavalier mic that comes with the Tentacle Track E digital recordee.

Q: 8. hi, please what is the key difference between the low and the standard sensitivity?

A: Standard sensitivity is fine for most applications. Low sensitivity is best employed with trained or very powerful vocalists or public speakers as for opera, rock church and worship.

Q: 9. Can i use it with my Sony microdot Connector?

A: No, the Countryman B3W4FF05BSE B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with MicroDot Connector for Sennheiser Wireless Transmitters is wired specifically for direct connection to a Sennheiser SK 2012 wireless bodypack transmitter. Sony uses a proprietary wiring configuration which is different from the wiring configuration used by Sennheiser. As an option for the same microphone wired for compatibility with a Sony wireless bodypack transmitter that has a 3.5mm locking connector, you can use the Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with 3.5mm Locking Connector for Sony Wireless Transmitters - Black (B&H # COB3W4BSN). For the same microphone wired for compatibility with a Sony wireless bodypack transmitter with a Hirose connector, you can use the Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic, Standard Sensitivity, with Hirose 4-Pin Connector for Sony Wireless Transmitters - Black (B&H # COB3W4FF5BDS).

Q: 10. The 3 different kinds of Hirose connection are selectable (DS, SO, and SY), and it says "see Description", yet the Description says nothing about these designations. Could you clarify?

A: Sorry for the confusion. Once you select a given connector, the second paragraph in the "overview section" will specify which transmitters they are compatible with. SN = Sony WRT-805A and UWP Series Transmitters DS = Sony DWT-B01 SO = Sony WRT-28, WRT-820A, or WRT-860A SY = Sony WRT-8B, WRT-420, or WRT-822B I hope this helps
