Behringer B-1 Large-diaphragm Condenser Microphone
The B-1 is an inexpensive large-diaphragm condenser with a fixed Cardioid polar pattern. A 3-way switch on the front of the microphone enables a 10dB pad or high-pass filter (one or the other, not both). The mic was made by 797 Audio, and appears to be nearly identical to the first-generation Studio Projects C1.
The capsule is 797 Audio’s version of the Neumann K67: a 34mm O.D., center-terminated capsule. Because the mic is Cardioid only, this capsule was made with single-sided capsule; only the front diaphragm is metallized, and only the front backplate is brass. Behringer B-1 circuit The B1 circuit, like the Studio Project C1, is a derivative of the Schleps design, with bipolar transistors used to create balanced output (without a transformer)
