Great lav mic with good versatility for narrative or docu style works. Comes with all you need and a nice carrying case. Connects flawlessly with my lectro 400 series.
Over the years, the Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone has established itself as a staple in the professional audio industry, offering unparalleled sound quality and versatility. Designed to seamlessly integrate with a wide array of Shure wireless transmitters, including the AXT100+, BLX1, FP1, GLXD1, MXW1, PG1, PGX1, PGXD1, QLXD1, SLX1, UC1, ULX1, ULXD1, UR1, and UR1M, this microphone is the epitome of compatibility and ease of use.
Crafted with durability in mind, the B3 features a robust aramid-reinforced cable that resists stretching and an ultra-thin diaphragm that minimizes handling noise, setting a new industry standard. The microphone's omnidirectional polar pattern ensures that sound is captured with clarity and consistency from all directions, making it the ideal choice for a multitude of settings, from interviews and live performances to sports broadcasting and outdoor events.
The B3's discreet profile is a testament to its design excellence. Available in light beige, it can be easily concealed within hair, attached to costumes, or hidden in props, maintaining the visual integrity of any production. For those situations where the microphone needs to be seen, its refined appearance complements any attire. Additionally, the B3's color can be customized with a felt tip marker, enhancing its concealability to near perfection.
Countryman's commitment to exceptional sound quality is evident in the B3's ultra-flat frequency response, which captures voices and instruments with authentic tonality. The microphone's standard gain setting (W4/no band) is optimized for chest or lapel placement, ensuring that it is well-suited for general lavalier applications.
The B3's adaptability is further enhanced by its field-selectable high-frequency response caps, which allow users to tailor the sound to the recording environment or to match other microphones. The microphone comes equipped with a +0 dB (Flat) cap, with the option to switch to +4 dB or +8 dB caps for added presence or to combat high-frequency feedback.
In terms of reliability, the B3 stands out with its water-resistant design. The included protective caps are highly resistant to moisture, sweat, and makeup, ensuring that the microphone performs consistently in even the most challenging conditions. These caps are also easily removable for cleaning or replacement, adding to the microphone's practicality and longevity.
Whether used as an installation microphone, concealed within clothing, or positioned openly for interviews and presentations, the Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with TA4F connector for Shure transmitters is a professional-grade tool that delivers superior audio quality and resilience, making it a valuable addition to any audio professional's toolkit.
