Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
Look, the B-1 isn't going to replace a Neumann, but for the price, it's astonishing. It's a solid starting point for vocal recording, podcasting, or even miking acoustic instruments on a tight budget. The sound is a bit colored, leaning towards a slightly warm and smooth character, which can be a good thing depending on the source.
