I have an MX-80 rack mixer and would like to get phantom power connected. I'm curious about the experiences/thoughts/comments/etc. of other MX-80 users with this issue...
Did TASCAM ever release a phantom power unit intended for the MX-80? Does anyone have such a unit or pics of one?
I guess I'll start looking around for some DIY phantom power projects; it shouldn't take too much to construct a well regulated and filtered 48 Volt supply to run off a 12 Volt wall wart type transformer, right?
Also, the phantom power is connected via an odd 2 pin XLR socket. Unfortunately, a standard 3-pin XLR won't work here as the 3-pin's holes don't line up with the pins on the 2-pin socket. Anyone know of any connectors (such as the 4 or 5 pin XLRs) which will work here?
Any input much appreciated, thanks!
