will probably need to enable Phantom Power. While it
is not necessary to use Phantom Power with dynamic
microphones, it should not be harmful to dynamic mi-

Phantom Power on channels using external microphone
processors as this may cause damage to those units.
Consult the technical manuals for your microphones and
any outboard processors to ensure you have correctly
configured the PowerStation's Phantom Power option.
