Default Mbox and Condenser Mic - No Sound

Hi All

When I try plugging a RODE NT1-A into my Mbox I just can't seem to get sound out of it no matter what I do. I try the 48V Phantom Power (which is what it requires) and nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Have you tried another mic cable? With phantom powered mics, you need a straight xlr to xlr cable with all 3 pins(a dynamic mic will work with a broken pin 1, and sound weak with a broken pin 2 or 3).
