question
Sound-wise would this be as good as a 77B? That is, if I don't need the smaller profile of the 77B would this 44B sound as good?
The main difference between the ECM 77B and 44B other than physical size, would be the frequency response. The 77B extends lower than the 44B, however generally for speech and broadcast applications those would be rolled off. If size is of no importance, the ECM 44B is a fine choice and very popular in broadcast applications.

How to connect Sony eco-44b to audio recorder
Hi Nicole, What audio recorder? The ECM-44B has a Male XLR connector. If the audio recorder has a female XLR port it will plug right in. If your recorder has a 3.5mm or inch input you will need an adapter:Hosa Technology Pro REAN XLR Female to 1/4 TS Hi-Z Microphone Cable - 10'<a href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/828155-REG/Hosa_Technology_HMIC_010HZ_HMIC_010HZ_Pro_Mic_Cable.html target= _blank >https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/828155-REG/Hosa_Technology_HMIC_010HZ_HMIC_010HZ_Pro_Mic_Cable.html</a>OrKopul XRSM 3-Pin XLR Female to 3.5mm RA Stereo Mini-Plug Cable (1.5')<a href= https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1221867-REG/kopul_xrsm_015b_xrsm_3_pin_xlr_female.html target= _blank >https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1221867-REG/kopul_xrsm_015b_xrsm_3_pin_xlr_female.html</a>Regards, -Erin

Will this mic work with Scarlett Focusrite 2i2?
Will this mic work with Scarlett Focusrite 2i2?
Should be able to work. Make sure AA battery is installed in the XLR barrel. Remove battery when not in use do prevent the Lav from damages from acid leaks.
It's a great lav to have and audio is great. Have 2 for talking heads.

question
To link this to a DSLR with a 3.5mm jack in a way that adds to the length of the cord, I could use a 20' Kopul Premium Performance 3000 Series XLR M to XLR F Microphone Cable, plus a Kopul LMT100 - Low to High Impedance Matching Transformer, correct? The length will not degrade the sound, and I can go right into the camera?
Correct. A standard XLR mic cable in addition to the Kopul LMT-100 cable will allow you to connect the ECM-44B directly to a DSLR. At this length would not affect the audio quality.

question
I am having trouble opening up the mic to replace the battery. What am I doing wrong?
The barrel of the Sony ECM-44B is threaded in the center and should unscrew with little resistance.
