Some microphones will require phantom power in order to function. This is
+48 volts of power sent via the XLR cable and used to correctly power up
the microphone and allow it to work.
Microphones that require phantom power are typically condenser
microphones. In rare cases, microphones that don’t require phantom power
can be damaged by providing phantom power to them so we’d recommend
checking the microphone’s documentation to see if you need to provide
phantom power or not.
To enable phantom power on EVO 8, simply press the channel button you
wish to use phantom power on and then press the 48V button. This will then
remain illuminated red to remind you that phantom power is active on the
selected channel.
If EVO 8 is connected to a USB-A port then you’ll only be able to use 2
channels of phantom power at one time. If the EVO 8 is connected to a
USB-C port that can provide 1.5A of current then you can use all 4
channels at the same time.
Phantom Power
Channels 1+2 and 3+4 can be stereo linked, which allows you to match the
gain for both channels to make sure your left and right channels are at the
same level.
This would be used when recording an instrument using two microphones,
such as a piano or guitar, or if inputting a stereo line signal like a synth or DJ
decks.
To do this, press down the 1 and 2 buttons or the 3 and 4 buttons at the same
time. The Channels in the software mixer will then automatically change to
a Stereo Channel to reect this.
Whilst two channels are linked, selecting one of the channels will
automatically select the linked channel as well.
