Re: 828 MK2 Mic PreAmp Question -- Mic inputs have no Gain!

Thanks Jef. I haven't tried it with the PC on in a while, but finally got through to MOTU support today. Tried it as a standalone mixer. Nothing from the mic inputs, but when I plug a guitar into either of the 1/4" front inputs there is good sound. They had me power it off, disconnect all cable...

Re: 828 MK2 Mic PreAmp Question -- Mic inputs have no Gain!

UPDATE: Put in a tech link at MOTU on 3 January 2011, and no response as of Jan 10th. Tried calling them, and their line is always busy. I really don't understand how a company can survive with such poor support. Their products are good, but not that good. Emailed their customer service. Depending o...

The only time I get sound is when I turn the trim knob to max. Turning the trim to max results in a bunch of static and the mic output being audible at very lo...

Re: 828 MK2 Mic PreAmp Question -- Mic inputs have no Gain!

Thanks, I have...but will try again, can't hurt. The strange part is with the levels all the way up the only thing that registers at all on the meters is a loud scream. Even that shows a millimeter or less of output bar.

828 MK2 Mic PreAmp Question -- Mic inputs have no Gain!

I've had the 828MK2 for awhile, but have never been able to get any gain out of the mic preamps. I hook up an SM57 and turn the trim way up, and there is sound coming through but its barely audible. I have resorted to getting a cheap 2 input mic preamp for now. Does this mean the preamps on my 828 a...
