The black Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Lectrosonics & Sennheiserfrom Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Lectrosonics & Sennheiseris 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 LEMO 3-pin connector for direct connection to Lectrosonics and Sennheiser SSM and SK 2000 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. what is the latency ?

Q: 2. What frequency is best for Qatar ( Middle East )

A: According to page 49 on the follwing page from Qatar's Frequency Allocation Table, frequencies for broadcasting wireless mics are allocated to 470 - 790 Mhz. Based on this, you can use any of the 3 frequency bands that the Sennheiser G4 system has to offer without any issues. https://www.motc.gov.qa/sites/default/files/qatar_national_frequency_allocation_table_qnfat_0.pdf

Q: 3. Hi, I was hoping to know what the best frequency range for New York City would be?

A: NYC is a very flooded market with something on every frequency. The frequency bank you choose will not matter as much as making sure you do a scan at every new location you go to.

Q: 4. Does it come with a case?

A: No, it does not. We offer a nice waterproof case from SKB that already has the cut outs for the transmitter and receiver, and has some room for accessories. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1288521-REG/skb_3i_0907_bh1_iseries_waterproof_sennheiser_ew.html

Q: 5. What kind of cable do I need to plug the receiver into a Canon C70 video camera? I understand the Canon C70 has mini XLR ports.

A: Blackmagic Design Set of 2 Mini XLR to XLR Audio Cables for Video Assist 4K (19.5") B&H # BLAXLRMINI2: https://bhpho.to/3r70SF5 OR: Kondor Blue Mini-XLR Male to XLR Female Audio Cable for Canon C70 & BMPCC 6K/4K (Black, 16") B&H # KOMXLR16BK: https://bhpho.to/3xEC35U

Q: 6. Would this lavalier mic work in europe? italy?

A: The wireless systems that are sold by B&H are intended for use in North America without a license. The FCC regulations vary in different countries, so a license may be required. The A1: 470 to 516 MHz, A: 516 to 558 MHz, and G: 566 to 608 MHz frequency bands for the Sennheiser EW 112P G4 Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System are all able to be used in Italy, however, a license is required. As additional options for a Sennheiser wireless system that you can use in Italy without a license, you may want to consider the Sennheiser AVX-ME2 SET Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System (B&H #SEAVXME2SET4) or the Sennheiser XSW-D LAVALIER SET Digital Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System (B&H # SEWXSLSTR). The AVX system operates on the 1.9 GHz frequency band and includes a plug-in receiver which can be connected to a 3.5mm mic input using the included XLR to 3.5mm cable. The XSW-D system operates on the 2.4 GHz frequency band and can also be used with an XLR female to 3.5mm cable to connect to a 3.5mm mic input. Both systems include the Sennheiser ME 2 II Lavalier Microphone, which is the same microphone that is included with the EW 112P G4 system.

Q: 7. Can the system be used with a zoom recorder?

A: Yes. Absolutely. I recommend using the XLR output connector to go into the Zoom .

Q: 8. Digital wireless system

A: The EW 112P G4 system provides analog UHF wireless transmission.

Q: 9. What is antenna diversity? I'm looking for what I call "true" diversity - multiple receive antennas.

A: "If you glance at the Sennheiser EK 100 receiver, you only see one antenna. However, if you write it off as a non-diversity system, you are mistaken. The EK 100 features a technology called “adaptive diversity,” which utilizes the connected output cable as the second antenna, making it a diversity receiver. By using the ground connection of its output as the link to a second antenna, it provides improved reception and reliability" Taken from "Understanding the Basics of Sennheiser G3 Camera-Mount Wireless Systems" https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/pro-audio/hands-on-review/understanding-the-basics-of-sennheiser-g3-camera-mount-wireless-systems.

Q: 10. Are these legal in the us? Here's what the FCC says about frequency ranges. Unlicensed wireless microphone use is permitted on the 902-928 MHz band, the 1920-1930 MHz, and on portions of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands under specified power levels and rules for operation for each of those bands.

A: Yes all frequencies between 470-608MHz are legal in the US

[Black] Perfect additional to my Samson speaker system.

[Omnidirectional] I have a Sony wireless lav and have gone through 2 Sony lavs due to the poor design of the cable going into the connector. Talked to a B&H audio consultant on the phone and she suggested the B3. Definitely seems to be a lot stronger at the connector.

[1 to 2 V] Using this mic in a professional TV environment. The mic sounds clean and gives a nice rich, full sound.

[Omnidirectional] I like the flexibility of this product in that it enables varied positioning. All that's needed is tape specifically designed for attachment to skin and in my case the upper cheek of my face. It has clear sound and is comfortable to wear.

[Omnidirectional] Needed a quality mic to record some interviews for a historical video series. Paired with my Sennheisser system, this little mic worked great. This is my 3rd Countryman mic and all seem solid. I'm happy with it.

[1 to 2 V] Very good in general - great for the cost. The B3 pairs well with the Senheisser G3 wireless packs. It sounds better than 'starter' mics like the ME2. Sanken sounds a bit better but costs a lot more. I think the B3 is in the sweet spot for moderate budget TV and film. The capsule tips included help shape the sound.

[Plug-In Power] I used this to replace the mic that comes with a Sennheiser ew 100 G4 and love the size. I have used a Countryman B3 wired mic for years.
