PHANTOM Switch and Indicator
This switch toggles phantom power on and off. The
indicator lights up when the setting is on. If you set the
switch on, the mixer supplies power to the XLR mic
input jacks on all channels (the INPUT A jacks on
channels 1 to 8, and the MIC jacks on channel pairs
9/10 to 15/16). Set this switch on when using one or
more condenser microphones.

the power to the EMX itself and to any other
power amplifiers and power speakers before

minimum settings before operating the switch, to
avoid risk of loud noises that could cause hearing
loss or device damage.
