Thank you for your answers and suggestions.
BTW, Jeremy, I've been taking a look at the Saffire 40 user manual,
and I have a doubt. When phantom power is turned on (for example, at
5-8 inputs), does this affect to input lines in the same segment
(5-8)? I mean, it has a connector XLR/TRS combo, so, I wonder if the
+48V only affects the XLR plug, or it will also power the TRS
connection (that could damage some line-level stuff connected at
TRS). Well, I think this question is more or less applicable to those
interfaces with this kind of input combos.
Applying phantom-power to the line-inputs would be against the specs.
So, no, no sane vendor does that.
And while the TRS and XLR share the socket, the contacts are different
as the amplification-stages are different...
