I own an Audiobox Studio, I mainly record vocals on it. Yesterday I was recording some vocals and everything worked great, but today when I was going to add a couple more takes, when I turned the phantom power on (48V button) it started making all types of weird noises, kind of as if wind was "hitting" the mic.

Phantom Power DI Problem

Recording bass guitar at a concert the other day, the bass player’s amplifier gave off a suspicious whine when the bass was plugged into my Whirlwind IMP-2 passive direct box. The ground lift switch on the DI did not get rid of the noise. I suspect that my DI is not blocking the phantom power that my PreSonus Firepod is sending down the line.

I reccently rented a splitter snake from a local music store to do some live recording of a band. For some reason, I wasn't getting any phantom power at either end of the snake (split or main trunk). Is there something special required in a splitter snake to get phantom power to the business end ?

I happened to noitce in the middle of a session that my (phantom powered) B.L.U.E. mouse mic was not working (barely passing signal) when plugged into my VINTECH 1272 preamp. Oddly enough, it seems to work fine on other preamps, (TubeTech, Daking, etc). And also, oddly, other phantom mics like a TLM 103 continue to work fine on the Vintech.
