Versatility for Every Recording Scenario
The Behringer B-1 DARK EDITION is built for a wide range of applications—from vocal and acoustic instrument recording to overhead and ambient capture. Its sensitivity and dynamic range allow it to capture fine sonic details without distortion, even at very high SPLs. It's a perfect fit for both professional studios and home creators.
The cardioid polar pattern focuses on the sound source while effectively rejecting background noise, which is especially useful in less-than-ideal acoustic environments. The low-cut filter removes rumble and low-end noise, and the switchable pad lets the mic handle loud drums or guitar amps with ease.
