•Switch ON the phantom power after connecting the condenser microphone.

•Always mute the VF160EX output when switching ON-OFF the phantom power and when connecting or disconnecting the microphone cable from the VF160EX.

•Always switch OFF the phantom power when connecting a dynamic microphone to INPUT 7 and 8 (XLR-3-31 type). Otherwise, a malfunction could occur.
