Product # COUNTRYMAN-B2D-W-FO5-LECTRONICS-SM

Countryman B2D Directional Lavalier Lectronics with SM Code for Switchcraft TA5F connector for transmitter models SM, UMa and LMa Series,

The B2D mic is easily the smallest directional lavalier in the world, with the next smallest mic being more than twice its size. Combined with exceptional sound quality and isolation, this tiny package opens up a new set of miking options that were previously unavailable. The tight hypercardioid pattern gives the B2D an extra 6-10 dB of headroom compared to an omni lav, meaning less problems with feedback, ambient noise, room rumble, and phase cancellations with multiple mics.

Applications

Easily hidden in hair/costumes or taped on performers' faces in film, theater and broadcast.
Well-suited for news anchors, interviews, lecturers, churches, schools and general lavalier applications.

Performance

Tight hypercardioid pattern rejects surrounding noise 6-10 dB better on average than an omnidirectional lavalier.
Low distortion at SPL up to 140dB (W6 sensitivity version).
Super-rugged cable boasts greater than 45 lbs break strength.
Accurate frequency response tuned for excellent speech intelligibility in chest and head worn applications.
Detachable cables allow swapping from one wireless transmitter to another, or to an XLR input on the mixing console.

Style & Comfort

Smaller than the cable of other lavaliers.
Comes is five colors to blend with clothing and skin tones.
Easily hides in plain sight by swapping colored caps to match button hole, sweater weave or skin tone. Use a felt-tip marker to color the white caps to get an exceptional match.

Durability

Built to withstand perspiration and makeup, for use in hair or on the body.
Protective cap is easily removed for cleaning or replacement when clogged with makeup.
Aramid-reinforced cable withstands heavy use.

	When should I choose a directional Earset? Only Countryman Earsets offer omni and directional versions, giving the user some exceptional advantages. The omni Earset rejects unwanted sound and feedback better than a lavalier almost anyway you wear it, so it’s very user-friendly for new and experienced users alike. It’s ideal for anyone working with a PA system covering a room without stage monitors. For situations where there are loud monitors, extreme feedback or environmental noise, choose the Countryman directional Earset (marked with a green band). It’s much smaller and less obtrusive compared to anything else on the market.

	How do I choose the right color for my skin tone? Tan is the most popular color choice, because it works perfectly for average Caucasian skin tones, as well as olive complexions. Light beige works well in theatrical applications due to its slightly pink undertone, which is also appropriate for extremely fair skin. Cocoa is the ideal choice for African American skin tones ranging from very light to chocolate.
	Which sensitivity should I choose? Making a microphone more sensitive to catch soft sounds means it will overload sooner for loud sounds. Because sound pressure levels vary between individuals and applications, we provide three sensitivities with three overload or clipping characteristics. • The most sensitive (W5, no band) is for general speaking, such as presentations or sermons • The middle sensitivity (W6, blue band) is for vocals and strong speaking, such as in theater • The most powerful vocals require the least sensitive mic (W7, purple band) with the highest overload sound level
	Which cap should I use? The Earset should always be used with a protective cap in place to keep sweat, makeup and other foreign material out of the microphone. The three omni caps each have a different high frequency response characteristic that controls the amount of “crispness” or “sibilance” (response at 15 kHz). The omni ships with the +4 dB protective cap fitted to the mic. We have found that this cap’s frequency response meets the needs of the majority of users, providing a slightly increased response in the 15 kHz range. This will boost the perceived amount of “presence” in your sound, while leaving the lower frequencies unchanged. If you experience problems with high-frequency feedback, you should switch to the 0 dB cap.
