Behringer B-1 Studio Condenser Mic – Affordable Pro Recording

The Behringer B-1 Studio Condenser Mic is designed to bring professional-grade audio quality to home and project studios, broadcast applications, and podcast setups in Kenya—all without breaking the bank. Engineered with a gold-sputtered large-diaphragm capsule, this microphone’s cardioid pickup pattern captures your vocals and instruments with natural clarity while minimizing unwanted ambient noise.

Featuring a switchable low-cut filter set at 75Hz (-6 dB/octave), the B-1 lets you dial down low-end rumble, ensuring that every recording remains clean and focused. The inclusion of a –10 dB pad further expands its versatility by allowing you to record louder sound sources like guitar amps or drums without distortion. Requiring 48V phantom power and connecting through a standard XLR interface, this condenser mic integrates seamlessly with a wide range of audio interfaces and mixing consoles.

Built to last, the B-1 comes bundled with essential accessories including a shock mount, a foam windscreen, and an aluminum storage case. Its robust, die-cast design not only maintains a sleek silver finish but also ensures durability, making it ideal for both studio and live setups. Weighing approximately 1 lb (about 454 g), it is compact and portable enough for on-the-go recording sessions without compromising on performance.

Whether you’re a budding musician, an audio engineer in a home studio, or a content creator capturing podcasts and interviews, the Behringer B-1 delivers studio-quality sound and versatility at an entry-level price point.
