Phantom power and a Y cable
« on: December 26, 2004, 08:28:19 PM »
I had Leeguy make me a Y cable so that I can A/B some pre’s and AD’s.  I will have one set of mics going in to the Y cable then into two separate pre’s and ad’s.  What do I do with the phantom power?  Do I run phantom power on both pre’s?  Do I run phantom power on only one pre?  Any help would be great. 
Thanks,
Ed

ed;

turn on only one phantom power and you should be fine.
