Akg C1000s For A Beginner

Are phantom power and pre-amps seperate? I asked about why my AKGC1000S doesn't work on a previous topic and i was told that it needs a pre-amp and phantom power. The AKG C1000S claims that with a 9v battery, you don't need phantom power. Do i still need a pre-amp then? And.... why?

Help is much appreciated.

Help Me, Please!

Hello.

I am an absolute beginner to audio recording on my iMac.

I have an iMac G4 and Logic (of the Logic BIG BOX set) I am quite accompished at MIDI, but i have absolutely no idea what to do now i want to use my recently bought microphone.

I have just bought an AKG C1000S and tried plugging it in to my Mac direct. Is this not possible? Does the line-in not accept microphones?

Please, could someone tell me what other things i need, what connectors i will need with them and where they will connect to? I know it's all probably very basic stuff, but i really need to know in simple plain english, just for the first time....

Thankyou!
