The white Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Fender Wireless Transmittersfrom Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Fender Wireless Transmittersis 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 female proprietary connector for direct connection to Fender Passport 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. can we use the this Sanken COS 11 D, hardwired TA5F element to SMQV and SMV?

A: Yes, this is wired to work with Lectrosonics SMV and SMQV transmitters.

Q: 2. I've plugged this in to my recorder via the Senal PS-48B-35H Phantom Power Supply that's listed as a recommended accessory for this mic, with 48V phantom power turned on. However, I'm getting a very very low signal from the microphone, peaking at around -32Db even with the gain on my recorder turned all the way up. Did I get a dud or is there something I've missed here?

A: So you checked the gain, have you checked the fader? Is their a pad setting switched on the recorder or the Senal? My last suggestion is to check the voltage of LR44 batteries. Maybe they're about dead. Try switching to providing phantom power from the recorder.

Q: 3. Will this mic work on the Audio-Technica System 10 bodypacks (with correct connector, of course)?

A: Yes

Q: 4. Would this work plugged into a zoom H1 or the RDELink wireless set? They have versions for each specific transmitter, but wondering how compatible the mic is.

A: Unfortunately this mic is not compatible with the RodeLink wireless system. In addition using the mic with devices other than the specified Sennheiser wireless transmitter is not guaranteed to operate and not recommended. Sanken does not currently offer a mic designed to be used with portable digital recorders via 3.5mm jack.

Q: 5. will this work with a regular recorder like the Roland R05?

A: This model of the Sanken COS11D is wired specifically for use with the Sony UWP wireless system, transmitters. it is likely it will produce audio when connected to the Roland R05, however the locking connector prevents the mic jack from being properly seated. This would not be recommended for use other than intended. Sanken does not currently offer a model compatible with portable audio recorders. There are several mics that are designed for portable recorders and offer similar quality such as the Tram TR50 see B&H# TRTR50BNLSET or Countryman EMW. B&H # COMEMWSFF05B.

Q: 6. How long is mic to transmitter cable?

A: This lavalier microphone that connects to the transmitter is 4ft long.

Q: 7. Will this mic work on Sony and Sennheiser packs?

A: No it will not. If you have a Sony wireless system then you have to get the COS 11D that says for Sony. The same is true for Sennheiser if you have a Sennheiser system you have to get the one that says for Sennheiser. The two are wired differently. The Sanken is an fantastic lav so make sure you get the right one.

Q: 8. Is this wired for Servo Bias or Universal?

A: Just kidding. I can't read......

Q: 9. Can you tell me which is the transmitters version that you sell on B&H?

A: These are the USA legal versions.

Q: 10. How is the echo on these microphones? I'm having an issue of shooting in a large space, and the boom mic I use picks up a lot of echo so I am trying to reduce that to get clearer audio.

A: By placing these mics on a person directly, they will pick up much more of the voice and less room noise than a shotgun in a large space.
