I want to put a phantom power indicator LED on my 9k. What size resistor should I use to limit the current from 44-48v to an acceptable amount for a standard LED?
 
standard LED

Doesn't sound like a blue one (which seem to give piercing amounts of light so should be tamed imho), but generally just try what gives the desired amount of light. Depending on colour/brightness/type/mounting you might need to adust the resistor value.
 
Ive used 10K on every box Ive built, so far has always seemed to be the right value. Depends on the LEDs you use though.
