A Note on Powering the ProCast SST
The ProCast SST is a condenser microphone, and like all condenser microphones, it has internal electronics that require
an active power supply Traditional studio condensers are almost always powered by a Phantom Power supply which
is usually derived from the mixing console The ProCast SST receives its power from the USB bus Simply connect the
microphone to the computer’s USB port and the microphone is ready to operate The ProCast SST features a power on
LED, which will illuminate when USB power is present
