I have a scenario where I would like to have 2 very user friendly presets for a mic for regular use in our services.  One preset would be "normal" use, the second would be panned mainly to a fill speaker on the far side of a wide auditorium from where we have an instrument playing.  Mainly to balance the sound somewhat.

I am using an A&H QU-32 and the mic is condenser so it obviously needs phantom power.  Can I simply "y"into 2 separate inputs?  I assume only one input needs phantom on?  Is there a more elegant way to accomplish this?  I am not really wanting to use presets/scene recall for this for a couple of reasons.

Yes, you can simply Y into 2 inputs. As long as phantom power is applied on at least one channel the mic should work fine.

If you are using a dSnake you can assign a single input 'socket' to more than one channel, essentially accomplishing the same thing.
