I opened the battery box today and found out the dip switch of ground lift/attached. but I do not know what it is. I want to know how to set it?
Can the Strobo Stomp be power by the fantom 48V?

Hi shage,

the ground lift switch disconnects the ground in the DI to eliminate ground loop hum that may occur in a live situation. This is a normal feature on DI's.


No, you can not power your StroboStomp by the Phantom Power (48v) from your desk.

Phantom power's current is way too low to power something like the StroboStomp. Standard Phantom Power circuit is usually between 7mA and 14mA. The StroboStomp needs 85mA. It does not harm the StroboStomp if there is Phantom switched on that channel, the Phantom Power is simply rejected.
