Sounds like your Phantom power supply may be defective. To be safe, 1st try moving AC plug for Phantom supply to another outlet as sometimes "sharing grounds" can be a problem. If this doesn't help, try using another phantom power source ...many PA mixers have built-in phantom power. If the buzz disappears with a new one, it will be a filtering issue (capacitors) with the old phantom supply.
Sorry, but the DI-100 can OPERATE on phantom power, not supply it. If you have a mixer that has phantom power then you have no need for the DI box. DI boxes are to convert unbalanced signals to balanced to send via XLR or TRS cables.
If you don't have a mixer that has built in Phantom power or a source of Phantom power, then you need a mic preamp that can supply the phantom power.
Here is an example device, but DO shop[ around as you should find some even less expensive. Make sure they have phantom power.
Hi,the switch for the phantom power on the microphone is to activation of the mic.Without the phantom being activated, the mic will not work.
It can only be activated with a mixer console that has a phantom activation on it. After connecting the mic to the mixer,activate the phantompoweronthe mixer and switch on the phantom power on the mic,and problem solved.
Note: Mic will not work if no phantom activated on the mixer.
For a mic like sennheiser ME66\K6 prof.mic.you have two options.
What might cause the blinking of the light,might be the battery,cause it functions in two ways,either by battery or by phantom power that needs to be activated by +48v power phantom on your mixer before it can work properly .
So you will do is either you get a replacement of the battery on get a mixer that has +48v power phantom power.
This is a well known problem with the EW100 series that is easily solved.
You will need to run this reciever into a line input via a mono(TS) jack to jack lead. this will bypass the phantom power.
Make sure that you set the AV OUT to +18 in the reciever menu to get optimum level.
Phantom power is only present in the microphone inputs XLR3.
Hope this helps.

Try using a mixing console with phantom power ( + 48 ). A condenser mic needs 48 volts to operate. The led should light when the XLR microphone cable is connected to a console with phantom power.
