Your going to need some more gear. This is a "Pro" style mic, with an XLR connector on it, and it want 48 volts (or there about) to power it.Look for a small mixer with Phantom power. There are lots out there in the $100 or less category. You'll like having the mixer for a lot of uses.

This doesn't provide any additional gain to the mic signal - it just supplies +12 or +48 volt phantom power. Whether or not you will need a preamp depends entirely on the gain needs of the interface into which you will plugging the mic.

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."

Well, I looked here for Phantom power for microphone and got this: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_18?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=phantom%20power%20supply%20for%20microphone&sprefix;=phantom+power+supp%2Caps%2C560 The Nady one looks good, but since it has to be plugged in.... lose that play anywhere feature. But $20 or so seems doable

I don't think phantom power will hurt this mic. I believe you do need a phantom power for this mic when you use the XLR connector. When you use the USB connector, you don't need phantom power. However, based on my experience, the USB connector on this mic performs terribly.

No. You need a preamp that provides phantom power like a juicedLink or similar. Another option would be a mic that has it's own preamp like a Rode VideoMic.

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.

No, the phantom power should come from your sound board through your microphone cable. It does not need a special cable. There is a phantom power button on analog sound boards and on digital boards it will usually have phantom power for each individual channel.

yes all condenser microphones do use phantom power :) but these to are a great deal I've cut EP's with Just these to mics, i wasn't easy if your have a little extra $$$ then I'd say go with the blue "bluebird" mic cause it's a little more crispy and has a better high end where these 2 have a better low end frequency response but for the money this is a pretty darn good deal!

You need something that provides phantom power for this mic. It may be included in the recorder you are plugging into (or amp/speaker), but otherwise you will need a preamp for it.

Dynamic mics don't need 48v phantom power, I never tried that way. Good luck

This mic requires phantom power from a mixer board. Will not work without phantom power. There are some external phantom power boxes you can purchase that are not expensive.

The Focusrite Scarlett provides Phantom power. So yes, it should be all you need. You could also use a less expensive alternative, the Icicle. It is a great microphone to USB preamp which also provides Phantom power for the mic.

Even though it is a condenser microphone in which all condenser mics usually need phantom power (+48v) no, not this one because I'm assuming that you're going to be running the microphone on a strong enough power source such as a modern windows computer (2006 and up) or on MAC which is without a doubt powerful enough. I've used this microphone back in 2011 on a eMachines T5226 desktop computer which was built in late 2007 and it worked great for my small-room (Home Recording Studio). GO! for it. But if you want a bit of better quality/frequency response...GO! for the MXL 770 or MXL 990.
