Is this good for my xbox?

You will need phantom power, xboxes do not provide phantom power, to answer your question, no this would not be good for your xbox, at all. Please let us know if we can assist you further, thank you!

Is this xlr 48 volt phantom power ??

It requires phantom power of a range between 9 volts and 52 volts. It will work with 48 volts as this is within the range it's designed to operate with.

Is this the current model or a discontinued model?

Their latest C414s, as far as I know, have nine electronically switchable polar patterns. There are two variations, the C414XLS and the C414XLII. The XLII has a slight presence peak for vocals. I have a matched pair of C414XLS. All I'll ever need.

Anyone out there using the c214 to record wooden flutes? (native american, shakuhachi, quena, irish, etc). how's it sound?

I haven’t used it to record wooden flutes, but I have used it to record saxophone. I think it would record these kinds of instruments just fine. I would recommend not close miking - give the sound room to breathe. 24” is a good estimate.
