[QUOTE="Brad Weber, post: 48062, member: 114"] Re: Whirlwind Contractor Splitter Used Backwards? That was my thought as well, was it originally intended to be two alternate 'input' locations or perhaps instead intended to be an input location and a monitor split? It almost sounds like someone rewired what may have originally been intended for a monitor/recording split to try to make it function differently. There may have been a reason to disable the splitter's phantom power for some specific inputs but if the FOH console is fed from the transformer isolated outputs then that console's phantom power should have no effect as the transformers shouldn't pass the DC power. The fact that the phantom power of a console that you believe is transformer isolated makes a difference suggests that not everything may actually be wired as you think it is. [/QUOTE]
