Topic: Fireface UCX: can PhantomPower on outputs cause damage?
Hey me again, i have another important question that never really got properly answered:
the outputs on the Fireface UCX (and on the FF400) are balanced outputs. OK
But if i would use an balanced Jack to an XLR to send my signal to the FOH, could PhantomPower ( switched on on a Mixing Desk) damage the interface/s?
cause at the moment i use 3 palmer 4ch di-boxes to send all my tracks to the mixer but in fact this would not be needed at all?
this would save me lots of rackspace and weight! and i could fit all 12 outputs on 1he!
Half a year ago i had a phonecall with RME CustomerSupport about this topic but unfortunately he couldn´t guarantee me to not damage the interface. infact he didn´t know it, so thats why i wanted to proof it here once again.
Thank you very much in advance!
