This professional-quality condenser microphone is designed to capture your sounds with incredible realism, sensitivity and accuracy. With its cardioid pickup pattern, frequency filters and input pads, the B-1 mic is an excellent choice for any recording scenario – and rugged enough to go the distance! With a heavy duty suspension mount and windscreen included in the sleek aluminum case, the B-1 just may be the only microphone your studio will need. What is a Condenser Mic? Condenser microphones are the ideal choice for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments. They are the primary type of microphone used in recording studios and radio stations. The B-1 mic is capable of capturing much more detail than most dynamic microphones because of its wider and flatter frequency response. Another difference between condenser and dynamic mics is they contain active circuitry that requires phantom power (+48 V) for operation. You can power your B-1 using any phantom power equipped BEHRINGER XENYX mixer – plus enjoy the benefits of our state-of-the-art XENYX mic preamps. Why the B-1? The B-1 condenser microphone is an affordable, high-quality way to get what you really hear down on tape (or in bits). Thanks to the pressure gradient transducers and shock-mounted 1.0" gold-sputtered dual-diaphragm capsules, the B-1 mic delivers an open, transparent sound with excellent transient response, and ruler-flat frequency response from 20 Hz - 20 kHz with a slight boost in the presence range. The B-1's cardioid pattern is ideally-suited for picking up your source signal while rejecting off-axis sound – eliminating any bleed from the sides. Thanks to its exceptional transducers and gold-plated XLR outputs, the B-1 truly delivers on the promise of noise-free transmission, with the utmost transparency. The B-1 also has a switchable -10 dB attenuator to capture high-volume signal sources without distorting, as well as a low-cut filter to tame ultra-low frequencies. But That’s Not All… The B-1 condenser microphone is designed to be your go-to studio mic for many years to come. The tough, die-cast metal body can withstand the rigors of all those late-night recording marathons – and the included carrying case ensures your B-1 always travels in safety and style. An excellent choice for both live and recording applications, the studio-grade B-1 condenser microphone is available at a price that will leave enough cash left over to secure other recording essentials.

I have also read in comparisons that it's about the same size (as well as a similar shape) to the Neumann U87, so I guess it would be a safe bet that it will fit.It would be wise to use a different shock-mount, because the Behringer one that is supplied with the microphone is an awful design with thin elastic that gets sloppy and falls off, causing the whole structure to collapse. **Q: Is the inside supposed to come loose after unscrewing the bottom? And is the thing that unscrews on the bottom the adapter? (Sorry I'm new to this)** A: Nothing is supposed to come loose on the inside after the bottom part is unscrewed. The only item that should come loose is the barrel, which allows access to the circuit boards. As for your second question, I don't understand it; what do you have in mind that it should be adapted to? **Q: Do i have to buy an xlr mic cable for the behringer b-1? or it comes with one. just wanna confirm.** A: You will need to buy one seperate. I picked this one up cheap and no hum or any issues. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0026KEGLQ/ref=sxts1ie=UTF8&qid=1480335291&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65 .. only regret was I moved my microphone and made a seperate recording room just for vocals and now the cable is short. I'll be buying a 15 ft from here. **Q: How might one get this to fit in a standard c-shaped "snap in" mic stand clamp?** A: It won't fit into the c shaped clamp, however does come with a screw in one which will be just as effective. It also come with a wind cover. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good product .... *by S***L on 24 September 2019* i am satisfied this product ... this is only one in this range for clear voice ..no catching surrounding sounds which means comfort to recorded everything very clearly ... base model condenser for home studio purpose.. thank u for giving safely .. good packing and safe to delivered it ... and also the seller ..thank u so much ... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by S***E on 2 May 2016* nice condenser mic i have connectad to my roland quad capture usd interface ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Product *by K***H on 3 July 2015* Very good for vocals, but too much high frequency.
