Turning +48V phantom power on/off
1.
Press [+48V] to turn +48V phantom power on/off.

You must turn the phantom power off if you’ve connected

Mistakenly supplying phantom power to a dynamic
microphone, audio playback device, or any other device that
does not require phantom power will cause malfunctions.
Carefully read the owner’s manual for your microphone or
other device, and make sure of its specifications.
Since noise will be produced when you switch the phantom
power setting, the output of the channel whose setting you
change will be briefly muted.
