You might have better luck reading reviews from actual users on Sweetwater, Amazon, B&H, etc.
Yeah, you might be right. What a mess. Turns out, they use 15v phantom power instead of 48v . . . probably to save money.
For now this won't matter. It may never matter, but, if you're really concerned you can look up the specs for your microphone. If you have a dynamic mic, you won't even need phantom power. Many, if not most low end mixers use 15v phantom power.

You should tell us exactly the model of mic that you are using. Also, what kind of guitar (acoustic/electric), and what are you playing it through? Do you have any pedals, do you have a multi-efx pedal of some sort? In short, how do you plan to capture guitar; direct, or with a microphone?

Also, I assume that you are just going to record without direct monitoring through headphones? That's really the easiest way to get started, although, you will have to fiddle about a bit to get levels right.

Finally, I assume that you are planning to pan vocals/guitar left right so that you can mix down later? Or, are you hoping to just capture the mix right in the room without applying any mixing effects.
