XVIVE P1 – Portable phantom power supply for microphones

The XVIVE P1 is an ultra-compact, low-noise phantom power supply designed for condensers, DI boxes, and preamps requiring 12V or 48V. Powered by an internal 3.7V/2200mA Li-Ion battery, it delivers 14–40 hours of runtime depending on microphone load, and recharges in 2.5–3 hours via USB 5V. The 105 × 44 × 33 mm metal housing and 145 g weight make it easy to integrate into portable recorders, DSLR cameras, or mobile studios, eliminating ground loops and the need for non-phantom mixers. A four-level LED indication indicates charging status, and the P1 can even operate while connected to mains power for uninterrupted, continuous recording.

Main features

• Phantom Power: 12V/48V switch for compatibility with all types of condenser microphones and devices requiring phantom power.
