MIC 48V (Phantom Power)
Many professional condenser microphones need an external
powering voltage, normally 48 volts dc, also known as
Phantom Power. This method sends a powering voltage down
the same wires as the microphone signal. When needed, press
the MIC 48V switch to supply the 48-volt dc power to all of
the microphone inputs. The adjacent LED illuminates when
power is active.
IMPORTANT: Do not use unbalanced microphones with
MIC 48V switched on as they may be damaged by the
phantom power voltage. Balanced dynamic microphones
and cables can normally be used with
MIC 48V switched
on. Contact your microphone manufacturer for guidance.
To avoid damaging external equipment, always set all
output faders set to minimum and then plug in all the
balanced microphones before pressing
MIC 48V.
2TK TO MIX
Press 2TK TO MIX to route the stereo signal connected to 2T
RETURN
directly into MIX outputs. This is an ideal way of
feeding pre-show music to the main outputs in live applications
without using up valuable input channels.
