Focusrite 2i4 not receiving signal from RODE NT1

Forums

I'm currently trying to use my new RODE NT1 microphone to record into ableton. I am using a Scarlett Focusrite 2i4 as my audio interface. I am aware of the need for phantom power and have the '48v' button switched on on my interface. Although I have the phantom power on the interface seems to be receiving no signal from the microphone.

RODE NT1 problem

Forums

Hello, I've been using a Behringer B-1 for recording vocals for the past few years but some time ago, I invested in a RODE NT-1 which had been recommended by many. I'm sure it's an excellent microphone but I am having two regular problems with it.

First, there are 'pops' everywhere - beginning words especially but also in silent parts between lines.

Phantom Power mixing board for RODE nt1a?

Forums

I recently purchased a RODE nt1a studio condensor mic. The interface I planned on using doesn't have phantom power and this was a mistake on my part. I do have a mixing board with phantom power, but it is typically used for live sound. If this would power the mic, I just need a usb adapter but if it doesn't I need a new interface.
