I have an at2020 usb condenser microphone that I would like to connect to a soundboard. The soundboard only has XLR ports that my usb microphone cant connect to. What cable(s) and or hardware do i need to use my microphone with the soundboard.

This is the microphone: http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-AT2020-USB-Condens...

I don't know that you could. Condenser mics require phantom power which I gather is being provided by the USB +5V rail.

You would need an adapter that changes that USB connector to one of the inputs on the mixer that can provide phantom power.

I'm not saying it doesn't exist. I am curious if someone can answer this thread, also.
