Does this system provide phantom power for the mics? And if so what is the raiting?

No, No phantom. It is a nice little portable but you will need a inline phantom for your mics.

This microphone does require phantom power. My board provides +48 V and it works flawlessly.

No. You need a preamp that provides phantom power like a juicedLink or similar. Another option would be a mic that has it's own preamp like a Rode VideoMic.

You could use a little USB adapter. Like a Pre Sonus, or other brand. It will provide the phantom power.

Yes the mixer does have phantom power on the XLR mic inputs. 18 volts will work with pretty much any condenser mic.

No, it's a condenser mic that needs separate wired phantom power. It is a great mic though.

No it does not supply any phantom power.. there is no battery or power supply in this unit. It is passive.It gives you the ability to control you audio levels with very easy to get to controls. Gives you the ability to switch your inputs to line or mic, which will give you better sounding audio if you match your inputs! I use it because my outputs are professional(XLR), but the inputs in DSLR's are pro-sumer(1/8 stereo mini). It is very hard to control you audio level from a DSLR camera. The device also fits under the camera securely and looks very professional,versus having all these adapters and cables hanging out all over the cam just waiting to get pulled out!

Phantom power is produced by audio mixer or mic preamp, or phantom power unit. There is no XLR cable MtF that can produce phantom power by itself. Please check your mixer, it should have a 48v button.

yes all condenser microphones do use phantom power :) but these to are a great deal I've cut EP's with Just these to mics, i wasn't easy if your have a little extra $$$ then I'd say go with the blue "bluebird" mic cause it's a little more crispy and has a better high end where these 2 have a better low end frequency response but for the money this is a pretty darn good deal!

no, you need phantom power for a condenser mic. the computer does not provide that. The cable is made for dynamic mics.

Well, it does have a mic input, but I don't think it's got phantom power (not sure about this but I've only seen phantom power with XLR connectors, not with the standard headphones connector), and you need it for your mic unless it's the usb version. If it's the XLR version then this won't be of any use for you since your mic won't work without the phantom power. I recommend you get a Mbox or anything similar.

No, but The interface dose not need to recognize. Dynamic mics don't care if there is phantom power or not, so, to answer your question, just don't waste the two inputs by plunging dynamic mics into them. The only type of mic that MUST NOT have phantom power is a ribbon mic.

Not quite sure what phantom power means but it only requires a USB plugin. I've used mine every day for Skype and quite often for voice acting. Perfect for the cost.

You need something that provides phantom power for this mic. It may be included in the recorder you are plugging into (or amp/speaker), but otherwise you will need a preamp for it.

Phantom power is the 48V power required for condenser mics like these to work. It's usually supplied by a mixer, preamp, or audio interface and carried through standard XLR cables. You'll need to check that whatever you connect these mics to provides phantom power.

It does need phantom power. Your board should be able to provide that. If it is not able to supply phantom power you will need something like the Behringer ps400. That will supply the necessary power for the mic to operate.

It does need phantom power but it pulls it from the usb port..u dont need any additional equipment to use this mic..its really simple plug & play.
