Sorry if this is in the wrong section...

I just bought a used E Mu 1616 interface,
and it warns of phantom power(48V) damaging some mic's.
Is mine one of them?

...

i have Sonar 4 producer addition installed and worked fine until today.
i have my work saved in a file it does not contain any audio tracks i.e only midi tracks on which i recorded with one vst plugin , file was saved by me, due to an improper shutdown (power failure) when i try to open the file an error message is shown.

i had the ball off of my 58 for a while, people may have poked on it.

I notice some sibilance on vocals, kind of ugly... could the poking have caused this? or is this how this mic sounds? I sang about 6 inches away. it still sounds fine on certain guitar amps

I was doing a session at a high $$$ studio this weekend and when I went to press what I'm positive was the talk-back button but it sent what I would consider to be mild feedback into the studio and control room and cans and I guess their mains blew out as well as some other damage (they claI'm but I dont know for sure if thats true)

It's not a subject that I really want to spend heaps of time on because I think most good engineers agree that making something loud and ruining dynamics is a bad thing, but...
