MASTER SECTION (Notepad 124FX shown)
1 POWER INDICATOR
This LED lights to show when power is connected to the console, and
the power switch is ON.
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.
