1 POWER switch
When this is on, power is applied to the unit.
When turning off the power, the rule for audio equipment is to turn off devices in the order of
their closeness to the speakers (normally beginning with the power amp).
2 PHANTOM switch
This switch turns the phantom power on/off for all channels 1~8.
Use this when you are using condenser microphones.
When this switch is on, +48V DC will be supplied to pins 2 and 3 of all XLR type MIC INPUT
connectors.
If you do not require phantom power, be sure to set this in the OFF position.
