Power Switch

Phantom Power Switch

+48V DC phantom power (for balanced condenser microphones) will be
supplied via every XLR input connector when this button is enabled.
Note that this affects only those input channels that are set to receive
microphone signals (check no. 2).

·

Before you turn on the phantom power switch, you must make sure to connect your microphones
to the XLR inputs (with balanced cables).

After you have turned on the phantom power switch, you should not connect or disconnect a
microphone to any of the input connectors.

is a spare fuse (5X20mm Glass Fuse) below the connector.
