Hi, I recently bought an Art Levellar Tube compessor pedal. I use it when I record acoustic guitar and vocals. The only problem is that when I put it between my mic (Samson C01) and Mixer (Behringer eurorackUB802) my mic refuses to work. It's a condensor mic so it uses phantom power, delivered by the mixer. It is possible that the Art compressor pedal won't transfer the phantom power or something? It has both jack input and output as XLR. I use the XLR's. When I put the Art Compressor between my mixer and the line in of my soudcard, everything works out fine. But isn't it better to put the compressor bewteen mic and mixer and why this won't work?

thx
