4.2.18.3 – SWITCHING PHANTOM POWER VOLTAGE LEVEL
To switch the phantom power voltage level between +48V and +15V, do the following:
1. Press and hold the [+48V] button.
2. Press the master channel select button to toggle between +48V and +15V. The LED will turn green
for +48V or red for +15V.
3. Release the [+48V] button to return to the mode you were previously in.
4.2.18.4 – PHANTOM POWER IS GLOBAL, NOT PER PRESET
The phantom power parameters (on/off state and voltage level) are global parameters. This means they
are not stored on a per preset basis; they will instead remain the same when changing K-Mix presets.
Phantom power parameters are global to prevent situations where changing presets alters phantom
power states, which could lead to problems with microphone performance (or even potentially damage
some microphones). If using a condenser microphone that requires phantom power, you likely wouldn’t
want phantom to suddenly turn off if you changed a preset, leading to a signicant drop in signal level
(or even completely cutting out).
4.2.18.5 – PHANTOM POWER DEFAULT STATE
When K-Mix is powered on, phantom power will always be off. You must manually turn phantom power
on each time K-Mix is turned on.
4.2.19 – PHONES
The [ ] button is used to enter “Phones Mode” — here you can adjust the headphone output
level and the headphone monitoring point.
4.2.19.1 – WHAT DO THE CONTROLS DO?
FADER BEHAVIOR
In Phones Mode, the master fader is used to adjust the nal output level of the stereo headphone
output on K-Mix.
• Move the fader up to increase the output level.
• Move the fader down to decrease the output level.
Faders 1–8 are not used in Phones Mode; they will not respond to touch and their LEDs will be off.
ROTARY BEHAVIOR
The rotaries are not used in Phones Mode; they will not respond to touch and their LEDs will be off.
CHANNEL SELECT BUTTON BEHAVIOR
Channel select buttons 1–8 are used to select one of the eight input channels as the monitor point
for the headphone output.
