Here’s how to connect your microphone: Connecting the Microphone Use a standard XLR cable to connect your condenser microphone to one of the two combined XLR input jacks on the amp. The amp provides 16V phantom power , necessary to power condenser microphones. Make sure your microphone accepts this voltage. Adjust the microphone input level using the gain potentiometers (GAIN) located on the front panel of the amp to achieve a good level without distortion. Tip Ensure that the XLR cable is fully inserted into the jack and locked (the XLR connector turns to lock).
