I just purchased the firepod yesterday and I'm having problems with getting any real level. I tried to record separately a vibraphone (with a MXL V67 with phantom power on) and vocals with an Audix OM5 and in both cases, I barely get any level on the channels I decide to record on. And I mean, barely any. I'll be lucky if the meter on the channel even lights up. What am I missing? Is the unit defective? Is there a pad somewhere?

are your mics using an XRL connection into the firepod or 1/4 inch? I figured out that my problem was related to using a male 1/4 inch into the firepod. make sure your male 1/4 inch is stereo and has three connection points which means you will be using a balenced connection.
