Professional Headworn Condenser Microphone
The Behringer BD440 is a lightweight headworn condenser microphone built for vocal performances, presentations and broadcasts. Its unidirectional cardioid polar pattern focuses on the speaker while rejecting side and rear noise. Weighing only 20 g, the adjustable frame fits a wide range of head sizes for comfortable hands-free use.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
As a passive condenser capsule the BD440 generates no heat and adds no audible self-noise to the signal chain. It requires phantom power supplied by a compatible belt-pack transmitter or mixer through the mini 3-pin XLR connector. Power consumption is negligible and there are no active cooling components to create background hum.
Bundled Accessories and Software
The detachable boom allows left- or right-handed positioning without tools, and the slim frame stays virtually invisible to audiences. No software, drivers or additional accessories are included in the package; integration depends entirely on the phantom-powered transmitter or preamp you already own.

Questions about this item
How do I attach the BD440 headworn microphone and what step is often missed?
Adjust the slim frame to your head size, position the boom on the preferred side, then connect the mini 3-pin XLR to a belt-pack transmitter that supplies phantom power; the phantom-power requirement is the step most often overlooked.
What part of the BD440 will need replacement after extended use?
The detachable boom and the mini 3-pin XLR cable are the only serviceable parts; the condenser capsule itself has no user-replaceable elements.
What limits the BD440 during long sessions?
The 80 Hz to 16 kHz frequency response defines the tonal ceiling, and the cardioid pattern's off-axis rejection determines how much ambient sound enters before the capsule saturates.
