    For recording or live settings.

    Behringer B-2Published on 07/29/12 at 23:14
    The Behringer B-2 is a dual diaphragm condenser microphone that can be utilized in either a live or in a studio setting. This is a very versatile microphone and puts out an excellent audio quality in almost any recording environment. I was very surprised with the B-2 because I didn’t think that it would be this good for the price that it cost. It has a gold plated xlr output that will give you great signal quality for recording. The microphone is also very rugged and heavy duty for those musicians that are on the move a lot and get a lot of their gear dropped and banged up.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The best thing that I like about this microphone is the price, for this price and for the quality that it provides and can be used in multiple situations it was a no brainer for me. Downside of the Behringer B-2 is that if you have an issue with one you already have, Behringer will offer no support at all and try to get you to purchase a newer version of it. I still own this microphone till this day and use it a lot. I am glad that I have it because it is no longer being made, you will have to purchase it used from eBay or from a used store. I have tried many other Behringer models, and through trial and error I ended up settling for this one at the time. Just because it was the most affordable and versatile microphone that they offered at the time. It well surpasses the first version of this microphone the B1, with major upgrades with the roll off switch and rugged structure of the microphone. The Behringer B-2 is a great multipurpose microphone for live and recording uses.

    Very Inconsistent

    Behringer B-2Published on 10/24/11 at 23:52

    The Behringer B2 is a budget (low budget) dual diaphragm condenser mic it comes equipped with a carrying case,universal shock mount and a cheap windscreen. I think they should have packaged it with a pop filter as well but that's just my opinion.

    Here are some of the key features

    Satin nickle plated body finish
    3 pin XLR connection (gold plate)
    Low freq roll off
    -10dB input attenuation (switchable)
    flat frequency response
    multi pickup patterns: cardioid,omni and figure 8
    INEXPENSIVE


    I've owned this mic for a little over 10 years and it's one of kind. No seriously the one I have really is one of kind. I purchased mic for 200.00 took It to a studio and recorded with it and it…

    multi pickup patterns: cardioid,omni and figure 8
    INEXPENSIVE


    I've owned this mic for a little over 10 years and it's one of kind. No seriously the one I have really is one of kind. I purchased mic for 200.00 took It to a studio and recorded with it and it was very very similar to the engineers Nueman U87. The b2 wasn't as smooth on the highs but for 200.00 it was close enough. We spent the entire night (free of charge thank god) running test on the Behringer B2 and his Nueman.

    After that the engineer and I went online and purchased 10 of them each. We figured if they sound this good we could record video footage and toss them up on eBay and make at least $500.00. The reason we could make that is because Nuemans were expensive (up in the thousands) and behringer is known as a company that produces so so music gear (depending on the price range) So what you'd have to do is buy a piece of gear and keep returning it until you got one that quality. It' was a lot of work but once you got one it was worth it.

    Long story short the condenser mics arrived and out of all 20 mics only 5 were really quality (all different ) but nowhere near as quality as the one I brought in. I think I must have gotten lucky or something.


    OVERALL OPINION

    So is the mic worth the time and effort?

    I say it's worth having as an extra mic in your arsenal but if you are just starting out and you're on a budget stay away from it because for an extra $40.00 (including tax) you can get something like a Rode NT1. The Behringer is just too inconsistent with this model for me to recommend without feeling guilty. Not to mention most stores now a days won't do returns on mics for health reasons so it's best to go with a company or model that is more consistent.


    Just a little update it seems as if the Behringer B2 was discontinued and replaced by with the Behringer B2-PRO which are consistent and a lot of people are noticing the similarity in clarity it shares with more expensive mics that sit in the $1000-$4,000 Price range.

    Micro electrostatic mixed bandwidth from 20Hz to 20kHz, phantom power supply
    switchable cardioid / omni, potion or low-cut attenuator - 10dB integrated.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I needed two microphones quite versatile, allowing me to catch close enough variety (wood, strings, brass, percussion) and taken together as a couple of stereo. All these features are present on the B2. For now, I have used in the first configuration, with no complaints to report, if not a preamp before the table is not the luxury (but this is due to the console, not speaking) .
    The value for money is excellent, no regrets.

    A dual-diaphragm condenser microphone.
    A switch Cardio / GP
    Another switch -10dB/flat/Low cut

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have a pair that I use for 6 months.
    This mic is really a very very good value quality / price!
    I have used on vocals, acoustic guitar etc ... I also use two microphones in stereo jack: I recorded a brass ensemble, the great organ in a church for a cd that will soon from the pressing plant has!
    It works very well. Certainly it is not a Neumann, but compare what is comparable!

    Micro singing,
    double diaphragm
    And-10dB low pass,
    CHARACTERISTICS excellent General

    OVERALL OPINION

    I just buy it, test all day,
    I find excellent, with a preamp Behringer MIC 2200 behind
    This will add a warmth and presence of very high quality,
    the microphone itself has a slight curve in the bass which could
    accentuate the "pops" but with the anti-pop provided very good quality
    it allows only the best sound :-) (It depends on the singer)
    I continue to use say more soon
    but in the meantime my first impressions are very good about it.

    B2 electro-acoustic. Capacitor, double membrane.

    Two directivity possible Cardoïde and omnidirectional

    Requires phantom power.

    I use this mic for vocals only.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use the microwave for 2 years

    On a good price / quality ratio, this microphone has a record in the media.

    I couple with an LA Audio MPX10 and the sound is very clean.

    I made no use for musical instruments. To see ....

    Its default is, I think, a sound a bit cold ... but I use it with pramplis a mixer of the same brand. A prampli lamps would be welcome, but a real good prampli, it's not in my budget ... In fact it has a bump at around 10 kHz, required by the manufacturers, who can make some instruments a little too aggressive, but you can easily correct this hump, it's always easier to remove than frquences 'to add more.
    C'tait my first micro electrostatic, and really does believe.
    Since I bought a pair of B-5 and I like them as much.
    I'd pay 266 euros the era, keeping prices fell further (160, l. A report by qualitprix incredible Behringer does not just work wonders, but the hat!
