Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need this device if my audio interface already has phantom power?
Generally not. This device is designed for interfaces or mixers that don't have one. However, it could be useful if your equipment's power supply is unstable or noisy, as the VDX10 provides a clean, external power source.
Can I use a dynamic microphone with the VDX10?
Yes, you can pass the signal from a dynamic microphone through the VDX10. Dynamic microphones don't require phantom power to operate, so it would simply act as a pass-through device. It's good practice to keep the phantom power off in this case, although a dynamic microphone with a balanced XLR connection shouldn't be damaged if it's turned on.
What cables are included with the Vonyx VDX10?
The VDX10 comes ready to use, including an XLR male-to-female cable to connect the microphone to the device and a USB-A to USB-C power cable.
