Hi Paul.

Whow!
Thanks a lot!
Now I got the point.
But one more question:

^^^^^^
So any mixer that provides these "mic" inputs (usually they are, say track
7 and 8 of the 8-track-mixer??) provides the 48V DC current?
And still I could use these plugs for, say recording another two guitars
(on top of the other 6 guitars on the remaining :) savely? Meaning the
"phantom power" doesn't do any harm to any other audio source....?
Hj]rtligt och tusen tack. (trying to improve my swedish, you know)
Tobias.
