Hi Josh

Correct. All condenser mics have to have phantom power. So going through the 
mixer should solve your problem.

            Hi all,



I just bought a condenser mic (CAD GXL2200), for that little boost in

quality over the cheap dynamics I've been using up until now. It works

fine with my mixer + phantom power, but the signal is far too weak if

I plug it directly into the S1000's (left) XLR jack. The manual is

very vague in regard to these mic jacks. Are they strictly for dynamic

XLR mics that don't require phantom power? I'm guessing I'll need to

run the mic through my mixer's pre-amp first and into the line-in on

the Akai, correct?



Cheers,

-Josh
