Does the SC-550X require phantom power?
Yes, the SC-550X is a condenser microphone and requires 48V phantom power from an audio interface, mixer, or dedicated phantom power supply to operate correctly.
What is the recommended distance for recording vocals?
For vocals, place the microphone roughly 10-20 cm (4-8 inches) from your mouth. Use a pop filter to reduce plosives and adjust distance to control proximity effect.
