Countryman B3 Protective Cap (Cocoa, Bright)

Protective Cap for B3 Lavalier Microphone - Cocoa, Bright

The B3 lavalier 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 B3 ships with the +0 dB (flat) protective cap fitted to the mic. Switch to the +4 dB or +8 dB cap to 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.

B3 Protective Caps shield the B3 Lavalier from dirt and dust, making it extremely water-resistant. Flat caps do not change the frequency response; Bright and Very Bright caps provide additional sibilance for voice intelligibility.
