Myself and a buddy of mine decided we'd mic-swap for the weekend... My Cobalt Co9 and SM48 for his MXL 770 (it's my first time messing with a condensor). By now, I get the feel for the size, weight, and build quality of this mic. Sadly, I neglected to take note of the fact that my BOSS BR-532 PDS doesn't not come equipped with phantom power.
