1 POWER INDICATOR

This LED lights to show when power is connected to the console.

2 PHANTOM POWER

Many professional condenser mics need PHANTOM POWER, which is a method of  sending a powering voltage 
down the same wires as the mic signal.  Press the switch to enable the +48V power to all of the MIC inputs.  
The adjacent LED illuminates when the power is active.

WARNING: TAKE CARE when using unbalanced mics which may be damaged by the phantom power 
voltage.  Balanced dynamic mics can normally be used with phantom power switched on (contact 
your microphone manufacturer for guidance). Mics should always be plugged in, and all output faders 
set to minimum before switching the Phantom Power ON to avoid damage to external equipment.

2-TRACK
