Countryman B6 lavalier

Countryman B6 lavalier

Only one tenth of an inch in diameter, the B6 is the smallest lavalier in the world and outperforms microphones many times its size.

The changeable protective caps provide moisture resistance and color options and let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones.

The B6 lavalier microphone is outfitted with specified connector and supplied with a windscreen, set of three protective caps, set of two tie clips (black and white), and carrying case.

    good work Guy, but where is the mic

  3. 3 guy

    Thanks. Mic is located on the chest. Mid sternum.

    Is the B6 compatible with a beachtek DYA4r connected to cannnon gl2

  5. 5 guy

    The Countryman B6 we sell is terminated via 1/8″ miniplug for the Sennheiser Evolution G2 wireless. It would need power which the BeachTek DXA4 does not supply. You would probably want to go wireless, or get the BeachTek DXA6 and the Countryman B6 terminated with XLR.

    how about the guitar? is that the lavalier also?? one lavalier picking up guitar and vocal? direct into the camera??? what exactly is used in this video…

    thx … this sounded incredible…

  7. 7 Guy

    Yes, that is all from just one mic. The guitar and the vocals from only the Countryman lav.

    Which one would your recommend and why, the B6 or the (countryman) EMW ?

    Also, if the mic is attached to the sternum, do you think it would get a lot of noise from the clothing if she stands and walks around?

    The B6 is way smaller and can be placed in the open on wide/med shots without being seen. The EMW is less expensive and physically larger. It’s meant to be hidden, placed under clothes with its flat design. If you place under clothes, you’d want to wrap with mole skin or use a Rycote undercover. The B6 can be left in plain sight, right in the open because it is so small, unless it’s a windy day, in which case you would want to put on a Rycote windjammer.
