i just got me mp2 in the mail from (deadband) and about to go out to a reggae festival today. i check my sonic mics, and they do phantom power up.
my ? is. i know phantom power uses the battery faster. i used my PA-6 batt box, and switched the mp-2 to phantom and it sounded the same with the batt box as it did without the batt box on 48v phantom mode.
will my mp-2 battery last longer if i use the batt box and switch it onto 48v phantom, or will it still drain the battery at the same rate as if i didnt have the batt box in between the mics and amp?
basically does phantom power drain at the same rate regardless of using your own mic power supply?
i think the sound sounds a lot fuller without the the unit running on phantom, it tends to sound scrathcy when db is gained in phantom. maybe it's just I.
sorry if post seem to coincide with each other, having fun with these tech toys the most high minds give.
