Hi people
This may seem a dumb question, but it's been a while and I don't want to risk anything. I am planning to take outputs from my 1604 mackie desk (all balanced stereo jacks) into the XLR-1/4''Phone Combo Jack inputs on the R24, (also balanced as far as I know) line in's via a fully balanced 18" loom.
What I wanted to know was is there any danger to the Mackie if I left the R24 phantom power switch on accidentally. As far as I remember I don't think phantom power affects balanced jack lines and shouldn't affect the mackie at all, but I wanted to be sure so I don't have to get the soldering iron out and fix the desk, which I love.
My gratitude in advance
