"Plug-in Power" means that the recorder provides a voltage across the
mic input connections. It's intended to provide power to condensor
mics.
If you use a dynamic mic (like the ubiquitous Shure SM-57 or SM-58), it
essentially shorts the two terminals and can damage the recorder.
All of our Core Sound mics, including the ones that provide their own
power, work fine with MD recorder's having "Plug-In Power."
Hope this helps!
