The black Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic, Low Sens, 3.5mm Locking Connectorfrom Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic, Low Sens, 3.5mm Locking Connectoris 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 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Happie Amp or Empower Sound Happie Amp and Amazing Amp 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. Will the Sennheiser MKE 40Cardioid work with a Mevo start camera?

A: The MKE 40 will not connect directly to the Mevo Start. This mic is intended for use with a wireless transmitter, but can be used as a wired mic with appropriate adapters and a phantom power supply. You can use the Sennheiser MZA 900 P - In-Line Preamplifier and Power Supply for EW Series Microphones (B&H # SEMZA900P) which has an XLR output to connect with a phantom power supply such as the Mackie M48 Single-Channel 48V Phantom Power Supply (B&H # MAM48) or Rolls PB23 - Single Channel Phantom Power Supply (B&H # ROPB23). From the output of the phantom power supply, you can use an XLR to 3.5mm cable such as the Kopul XRSM 3-Pin XLR Female to 3.5mm RA Stereo Mini-Plug Cable (B&H # KOXRSM03B) to connect to the mic input on the Mevo Start.

Q: 2. IS THERE ANY DEAD CAT that reduces sound noise?

A: The Sony ECM-LV1 Compact Stereo Lavalier Microphone with 3.5mm TRS Connector comes with a foam windscreen to help reduce the impact of noise from light wind, however due to its unique form factor there is no specific, more heavy duty windjammer for this microphone.

Q: 3. Can I get a longer cable ?

A: A longer microphone cable is not available.

Q: 4. Had anyone used this with the Live U smart App?

A: While we have not tested it with the LU-Smart app, this mic should be compatible with any app that can see an external mic input.

Q: 5. Is this compatible with the XS series of Sennheiser body packs?

A: Unfortunately the Sennheiser MKE 40 is not compatible with the XS series. Only the SK 100, SK 300, and SK 500 Evolution Wireless Series bodypack transmitters.

Q: 6. Can I use it with my iPhone adapter?

A: This is a stereo microphone, and will not work well with most TRRS adapters. I would recommend considering a mic like this instead: https://bhpho.to/3aH09Dn

Q: 7. The low mighty baby stand (this item) (KS101212) and the short low mighty stand (KS101412) have nearly identical specs. Why would you choose one over the other?

A: One might choose the Kupo Short Low Mighty Stand (3.3'), BH #KUKS10141 if they are using a light that has a junior pin and a yoke attachment, as this stand has a junior receiver. On the other hand, one might choose the Kupo Low Mighty Baby Stand (22.5"), BH # KUKS101212 if they are only using lights which have a baby receiver on them.

Q: 8. Can I use this mic to convert spoken word to text on an iPhone 12 much like SIRI does?

A: Yes, when connected to an iPhone, the Polsen MO-IPL2 Lavalier Microphone with Lightning Connector and Headphone Jack for iOS Devices will replace the phone's internal microphone but should function with applications in the same manner otherwise.

Q: 9. If I shoot video with the iPhone without any app will this lavaliere work? Is it a plug-in and play?

A: Yes, the Polsen MO-IPL2 Lavalier Microphone Kit for iOS Devices is able to serve as audio source when recording video with the iPhone Camera app.

Q: 10. Is this shielded against RF interference?

A: Sony has not provided any details or specifications regarding RF shielding, but I do expect there to be some level of RF shielding.in order to deliver high quality sound.

[Omnidirectional] Absolutely amazing. Super small. Easy to set up and use. Crisp clean audio without any adjustments in post. And very good at reducing noise and clothing rustle. I'm in love with these. GOOD AUDIO MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

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

[Plug-In Power] 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.

[Black] I bought the B3 as a replacement for my sennheiser ME-2 stock mic, because I do a lot of filming in noisy office environments with air conditioning and ventilation. I am so blown away at how well the B3 performs. It reduced the background noise significantly. In fact I bought a 2nd unit. So worth it.

[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.

[Omnidirectional] I like these wireless mics better than the Sanken COS11-D that I previously bought for my Lectrosonics L Series. They may not have the fidelity of the Sanken mics, but they are very clear sounding with nice low end presence (without it being too much). I prefer these lavs over others for their all around great sound while being extremely durable.. These can withstand heavy use, while the Sanken COS11-D metal windscreen quickly was scraped and dented in regular use.
