Phantom Power Question

Post by George Kimery »

If I can find it or haven't sold it, I have a black box made by Peavey that is a stand alone gizmo for supplying phantom power to a mic. I think it is either made for two mics or four, I don't remember. There is a low Z out on it to go to a normal mic input on your board. If you are interested in it, I will look aroud. I would want $20.00 for it including shipping.

If you are using phantom power, do not use a Ribbon mic or you will fry the mic. Been there and done that....:(
