Connecting a microphone
Make sure that the power is turned off to the
EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12.
Connect mics to channels 1–16 (EMX5000-20)
or 1–8 (EMX5000-12), using the INPUT A jacks
if the mic has an XLR plug, or the INPUT B jacks
if the mic has a phone plug.

Using a condenser microphone
Turn on the PHANTOM switch (located in the upper
center corner on the panel).
• The PHANTOM switch supplies phantom power to
all channel inputs at once (EMX5000-20: 1–8 and 9–
16, EMX5000-12: 1–8), so mics other than con-
denser mics must be connected to the INPUT B
jacks.

phone while the power to the unit is on and the
PHANTOM switch has been turned on.
