Hello,
reviving this old thread since I’m experiencing a similar issue with an H8000FW I just received.The meter doesn’t seem to be responding at all, just the bottom line of LED’s are lit.
The facts:
– Balanced connection from a Metric Halo LIO8 interface to analog ins 1+2 of the unit
– Playing a loud signal, around -10dbfs
– Meters in the LIO8 show that what is returning to the interface is the same level as what is leaving
– Meter lights up on start up
– Meter responds fine when I crank the Pre-AD input level, but
– I can crank up the output level from the interface so much that it clips the D/A and H8000 meter remains at the -40 mark
– Tried different cables, same result
Any ideas? Taylor 12k did you ever get the problem solved? I wouldn’t want to keep this unit without being able to internally gain stage properly.
Thank you in advance! I am aware that the 8000 is no longer in production. Any help is greatly appreciated!
