does this mic need phantom power?

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.

No it doesn't. I've used this in my home studio for a while and I am very pleased with it.

This is an XLR dynamic mic with no phantom power. Unless you are right no top of it, it needs a mic preAmp. The quality is good for an inexpensive mic, but not on par with a professional vocal performance mic like a Shure SM58. If you want to use it to record into a USB hub, your connection would probably look like this: Mic > preAmp > mixer > DA/Converter-USB > PC. The preAmp is optional but probably a good idea.

Phantom power is the 48V power required for condenser mics like these to work. It's usually supplied by a mixer, preamp, or audio interface and carried through standard XLR cables. You'll need to check that whatever you connect these mics to provides phantom power.

Yes, it is a condenser mic and requires power. Usually the power would be supplied by the wireless body pack transmitter.

Since the amp has an xlr input for a microphone... yes the power supply will come in handy for a microphone that NEEDS PHANTOM power. If your mic is a condenser that doesn't have battery capability... it most likely needs phantom power. It would be rare that an amp in the category you are asking about would have phantom power available. A dynamic mic won't need phantom power and could be connected directly to the amp. A condenser mic that uses a battery won't need the power supply either. My question would be... why choose such an inexpensive "beginner" amp to use with a mic that would require phantom power (which is usually in a higher price/quality category)? Just a thought here... if you are capable of asking your question here... you are most likely capable of doing a bit of research yourself on the requirements of equipment. The manufacturers are usually very willing to help with information! Good hunting!!

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.

Phantom power is a power supply used to power condenser mics. The standanrd voltage on phantom power is 48v, but some mics may vary.

No. This device only powers the Mic. (certain mics require phantom power). Use an M_Audio Fastract to convert your analogue signal to digital and connect to your computer.

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

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

it gets the phantom power from usb. No power supply. Im not sure if its a full 48v not manny mics actually require 48v

No, No phantom. It is a nice little portable but you will need a inline phantom for your mics.

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.

Not quite sure what phantom power means but it only requires a USB plugin. I've used mine every day for Skype and quite often for voice acting. Perfect for the cost.

No phantom power needed. If there is a mic jack, the mic will produce sound.

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.

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