[AwesomePossumFilmzz]

can someone show me a mixer that supports phantom power that doesn't break the bank?

[JFidelta]

@AwesomePossumFilmzz ikr !

[AwesomePossumFilmzz]

@JFidelta I meant that literally, I found one though. I cant seem to get it to work with my mic. Im kind of scared I broke my mic by turning on the phantom power. Because the instructions werent very clear. And im not exactly sure what im doing

[JFidelta]

@AwesomePossumFilmzz ohh, i thought that meant that if it doesnt cost so expensive. lol my bad

[svsuperstar9]

thanks!

Wow I've been looking everywhere for an article that explained phantom power but kept on getting extra info that made me not want to read it.

Then I come on youtube and I get the info I want.

Youtube is my new google.

@521182 that's kind of funny, because youtube is owned by google. I came here because I wanted to take a close look at the wires/details of phantom power, after reading an article about it.

im trying to use a phantom powered condenser microphone on my consumer grade camcorder.....this how to is pretty easy considering you got those plug inputs right on the camera itself...it almost seems pointless to have a how to for this.

I have an issue dunno if you can help... I am trying to direct connect a guitar to a M AUDIO delta 1010lt using a 1/4" stereo to dual RCA connection... the m-audio has RCA but when I connect the guitar to the RCA, i Only get one channel of sound... so that means only one signal is being outputted to the dual RCA... do you know of guitar is mono or if I just need to try ya different kind of cable or maybe the cables I have are shotty to begin with? I DUNNO :( :( :( :( :(

[JamieCunningham]
