B2D DIRECTIONAL

LAVALIER MICROPHONE

The B2D Directional Lavalier 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.

Positioning the B2D

With its small size and multiple

color and sensitivity options, the

B2D can easily hide behind a shirt

button, making it truly invisible

for ﬁlm work, theater, live shows,

or any other applications that

may otherwise have required the

reduced sound quality of under-

clothing miking.

Great for Broadcast

Natural vocal reproduction,

superb intelligibility and a

tight polar pattern make the

B2D ideal for broadcast and

a dependable workhorse you

can count on to perform night

after night in the most critical

applications.
