Behringer R B-5 Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone Negotiable

Product Details

Description

Ideal for home studios, the B-5 from Behringer is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone with interchangeable cardioid and omnidirectional capsules for maximum versatility. Sporting a switchable low-cut filter and -10 dB pad, the B-5 can easily handle a wide range of sources, from drum overheads and guitars to ensembles and choirs.

Use the cardioid capsule to capture single-source sounds like acoustic guitars or buy two for stereo-miked drums, and use the omnidirectional capsule for room ambience and orchestras. The gold-sputtered diaphragms and gold-plated XLR output ensure corrosion resistance and excellent conductivity for optimal signal integrity. The low-noise transformerless FET circuitry improves clarity. And with a satin nickel-plated brass body, the B-5 will stand up to years of rigorous studio recording. The B-5 includes a stand adapter, a windscreen, and a transport case.

Advantages of Condenser Mics

Condenser microphones are the ideal choice for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments. Condensers capture much more detail than most dynamic mics because of the high sensitivity and wider, flatter frequency response of their transducers, which use two electrically charged plates instead of a large coil.

As a result of this active charging of plates, condenser mics require power, unlike dynamic microphones. Ensure you have a mixer, interface, or in-line device capable of supplying the B-5 with its required +48V phantom power.

Ideal Applications

Small-diaphragm condenser mics are useful due to their small size, which make them easier to suspend from mic stands and position towards sound sources. They also capture superior high-frequency air, making them ideal for numerous specific applications, including:

Drum overheads (as a stereo pair)

Acoustic guitar

Ensembles

Choirs

Room ambience

Horns

Strings
