PHANTOM +48 V Switch

Toggles phantom power on or off to a set of eight adjacent
channels. The MG32/14FX has three of these switches: for
CHs 1 to 8, for CHs 9 to 16, and for CHs 17 to 24. The
MG24/14FX has two: for CHs 1 to 8 and for CHs 9 to16. If
using condenser microphones, set the switch on ( ) for all
channels to which these microphones are connected.
If this switch is on ( ), the mixer supplies DC
+48 V power to pins 2 and 3 of all XLR-type jacks in
the corresponding channels.
•Be sure to leave these switches off ( ) if you do
not need phantom power. Humming or damage
may result if you connect to an unbalanced device
or to an ungrounded transformer while this switch
is on ( ). But note that the switch may be left on
without problem when connecting to balanced
dynamic microphones.
•To avoid damage to speakers, be sure to turn off
amplifiers (or powered speakers) before turning
these switches on or off.
