Do the microphones need phantom power? Is it turned on?
If in doubt, turn it on.


Watch out! Some phantom power mics blow up Behringer
mixers.


Exceedingly unlikely.

In particular the Rode NTG-2. If you turn on phantom
power the phantom power permanently is destroyed in the mixer.

I do believe that it is possible that someone, one time, plugged a NTG-2
into a Behringer mixer and coincidentally, the phantom power supply in that
mixer went out.
