Will the phantom power from my mixer damage this unit

I just got three of these. My Peavey amp puts out 48v DC phantom power. I crossed my fingers and plugged up one of my condenser mics and turned on the phantom power. I had no problems. It worked fine. The 16v limit is for the remote power/monitor input. The mic out is clearly labled 'mic thru' for pass-through. And in the manual it says, "for condenser or dynamic microphones."

No it won't, I use and Shure Beta 87 (condenser mic) in this unit and the phantom power has never been a problem.

No. I use a condenser microphone with the rolls personal monitor. The mixer makes phantom power available to microphones that use it, if you are not using condenser microphones turn the phantom power off. Incorrectly wired microphones can be damaged by phantom power.

Depends on how he will be using it, or should I say with what equipment he will be using it with. The biggest concern is Phantom power. Many mixing consoles have this built in, but it will not work without it.

No. The signal from the mixer would be too hot and you'd get nothing but distortion.

No idea. All I use it for is a digital interface, and I've not used the other product you've mentioned. I use a small Beringer 4-channel mixer, because the Alpha doesn't provide phantom power for a microphone.

Well it shouldn't hummmmm. Check to make sure all the volumes are correct. Not to much input. The trim should not be turned up to loud. Also check the effects aren't up to high. Also make sure its not a ground loop problem. Plug the amp and the mixer in the same outlet.

if your mixer has +48 volt power(phantom)This mic needs +48 power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if so, you should be sweet??????????????????????

the phantom power should be sufficient for your condenser mic. I wouldn't count on using this interface for anything more than a demo though.

Phantom power is produced by audio mixer or mic preamp, or phantom power unit. There is no XLR cable MtF that can produce phantom power by itself. Please check your mixer, it should have a 48v button.

No, this is a XLR 3 pin condenser microphone that needs phantom power from a professional mixer.

I have mine working with a USB powered mixer without phantom power and seems to work just fine.

I'm not sure. I used a 500 watt powered mixer and it sounded fine, but I will be purchasing a 1000 watt Crown to push them. The specs say 1000 watts per channel, but other reviews said they couldn't handle all of that power, so I'm going to use 1000 watts for 2 of them.

It is purely a mixer with Phantom power.... You'll need an amp or self-powered speakers if using it as a live sound mixer.

No - most dynamic mics will "ignore" phantom power, so it doesn't hurt them.

I don't think so. I don't think it sends phantom power from the output XLR over to the input XLR. Phantom is DC and won't cross the transformer boundary.

It will not work without a 48v phantom power. You'll need either a mixer that have 48 volt phantom powered XLR input/s, or a 48v phantom power adapter.

You should contact Behringer Tech Support, maybe they can resolve your issues. It is clearly written on the manufactures box that houses the Xenyx 502, that it has Phantom Power. As I stated earlier, it does not directly impact my use of the mixer. I do understand your frustration with this problem.

Mine has noise which I think its due to the fact that the mixer requires 120v power outlet and where am from one can only have 110v or 220v. I believe thats what causing the noise, again its my conclusion...no promises
