For anything else, that is BAD... On my

So what's up with all the devices out there that have just a single phantom
power button for the whole device and not per channel buttons? You can't /
shouldn't plug in a mix of dynamic and condenser mics into them?
No problem with dynamic mics. The mic capsule doesn't 'feel'
the phantom power as it doesn't connect to ground. You can
have problems with AC-coupled line outs as the phantom
voltage could reverse-bias electrolytic capacitors.
