Can the phantom-power in xlr mic-in connection be turned off for microphones that don't require it?

The phantom power will not affect dynamics BUT it will damage ribbon microphones. So if you only use dynamic and condenser microphones it will be fine. DO NOT USE FOR RIBBON MIKES!

I don't think it has an on/off switch for phantom power but you can plug in a dynamic mic with no problem. This little device is well worth the money.

no, they don't require phantom power. P.S. DON'T purchase these mics if you want to use them more than once. you definitely get what you pay for. I bought 8 and EVERY ONE broke by the end of a 12 performance show. the wiring is so flimsy, that any little thing will tear them apart. VERY CHEAP!

Yes, it's got a button that turns on Phantom power to all of the XLR inputs. I've used the phantom power with my MXL 910 mic, and it works well. Hope this helps.

You can't use this mics with an ordinary computer input because the binaural mics needs phantom power to work.

Not really. This microphone needs phantom power, so you need an interface on the other end that can provide power to the microphone.

Hi Jayden, As far as I know it does not require phantom power. I have used it without it, but I have also used it with on an audio interface. I just did my show with the yeti pro this evening. You can listen to it if you go to Blog Talk Radio Alpha Centauri & Beyond.

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.

No such cable that I know of does that, John. A regular XLR line (of fair to good quality, i.e, not from Radio Shack or someplace similar) will do, your 48v phantom power should be applied from your mic pre or interface to computer.

Hi, this is a dynamic mic, so it doesn't need phantom power, just needs a balanced XLR cable and a place to plug it in!

It's not intended for mics to be connected directly to it (at least that is what the documentation says - no phantom power)... if you need that then consider the Shark DSP 110. My band uses this for live sound. At the moment we are running the left and right house channels from our mixing board through the FBQ1000. We've only used it for a couple of gigs so far, but it has worked great.The FBQ1000 only protects two channels.

I have not tried used phantom power on every channel, only 2 , and did not hunt down where they were. the way the manual is written all 24 xlr channels have phantom power. http://www.behringer.com/assets/SX3242FX_SX2442FX_M_EN.pdf page 5 under mic pre amp

Runs off power from the XLR cable. So the camera, or whatever its plugged into, will be powering the microphone.

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.

Typically Phantom power is used to power hand held/corded microphones. You willnot needor wantto usePhantom power since you will be using a microphone that has its own power.

Yes, it shuts off the camera's onboard mic. If you want it separate, you can record the audio on a separate device, which makes the audio much easier to sync in pro production.

I use mine to direct insert my guitar and keyboards to my computer. I have not noticed any "hum" in any of my recordings. I haven't use channel 1 (microphone vocal), so I can't help with the phantom powered channel.

No. This mic is a professional condenser mic and requires 48v phantom power on an XLR connector. If you want to use this mic with a comptuer, the best way is with an interface like this: PreSonus AudioBox USB 2x2 Audio Interface - Includes Studio One or instead, you can just us a good USB mic like this: Audio-Technica AT2020USB PLUS Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone
