Manufacturer's Description for Behringer B-1 Single Diaphragm Studio Condenser Microphone

Designed with home-studio owners and musicians in mind, the B-1 features a 1 in. capsule that captures your sounds with incredible realism, sensitivity, and accuracy. Its wide frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz is enhanced by a pronounced presence boost, making equalization unnecessary in many cases. Its cardioid polar pattern, switchable high-pass filter, and -10 dB pad, SPL of 138 dB and unusually low inherent noise make it perfect for close miking and extremely flexible. The B-1 also comes with a carrying case, shock mount, and windscreen.

- Exceptionally wide frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with pronounced presence boost

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (300 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Makes me sound better without practicing!"
Sound: Have only used SM57's previously and am not an experienced recordist, but this bugger sounds great to me. Sound is clear and airy and "right there" instead of lurking off in the far corners somewhere -- no hint of the muddy dark tone that always plagued me before. Feature: Has bass rolloff and an attentuation pad, which do their job. Included shockmount is really high quality -- all metal and convenient to use. Case is surprisingly good. Foam spitguard is odd-looking but effective. Those complaining of the thread adapter: LOOK AGAIN! There is a brass 3/8 adapter screwed in. Remove it to find 5/8-27 threads! Quality: Nice construction, every part smooth, strong and well-fitted. Value: I am finding it hard to believe something so nice is priced so reasonably. Very much worth the price. Manufacturer Support: Haven't broken it yet, no experience with factory support. The Wow Factor: Professional-looking. Studio now looks like I may know what I'm doing. Overall: I suspect in 3 years I will know more about mics and be able to see the usefulness of an expensive one. But this should always find some sort of use, even so. I dig its sound on vocals and tenor saxophone; I might even sing some, now that the B1 makes me sound so much better. If it's ever lost, I'd go for another one immediately.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "This microphone will not disappoint you!!!"
Sound: The sound quality of this microphone is pretty good. I bought it around 2003 and I still use it till this day. I use it to record hip hop and r&b music and I have had no one complain about the sound yet. Most are actually surprised that such a cheap mic can sound this good. I know it may not beat out your top brand microphones and I will admit I have not tuned my ear to know the difference between all the famous mics, but this microphone is a must have. Feature: It comes with everything you need to put the microphone on a stand and start recording. It has a roll of which is useful if you live in urban areas like I do. It help by keeping the lower frequency sounds from entering your mix. Ease of Use: You plug it in and go, it does what a condeser mic should do. Quality: The quality is par none, especially for the price. I will always keep one of these around just because its so good yet if someone drops it I know it will last and if not its easy to replace. I have traveled to many cities with it outside of its case and it has not changed the sound one bit. Very sturdy. Value: I feel as if I have gotten my moneys worth and so much more. I love this microphone and I am only recently updating to different mics in my home studio. This is perfect for people with a budget that want to just get some work done. Manufacturer Support: Never needed to call. I heard they are slow to respond but hey, your not paying for support with these products you are paying for the product only. If you are worried about getting support I suggest going with a company that builds that into there product price. The Wow Factor: IT looks like a nice microphone and could sit on the same shelf as your high end mics and unless someone saw the Behringer label, they would not think twice about it.
