1/4"? And how long can it record with it's batteries when using Phantom
power?
I know my little Marantz box can do over 3 hours driving a stereo mic. If I had a bigger compact flash cartridge, like a 4 gig one, I might be able to
go 6 hours. I should try it.


Yup, 1/4", just like some of the cheaper mixers out there. XLR to 1/4" TRS adapters are cheap and don't take up room on the chassis, which is what they were trying to avoid, I imagine.

I hadn't noticed a drain on the battery when the phantom is on, which agrees with what I know about phantom power; there is hardly any current drain, just the bias that drives the mic. This is why those mics with batteries in them last so long between battery changes.
