Sounds wrong to me. I can't see how it can be right this is not any level at all. So if you can find a mate with a dat recorder or minidisc with line level out and this clips "audibly" on a -10 input
We have a problem. Is the clip light in the program or on the front of the box. Is whats on the box a clip light or a signal present light.
Is there a level setup page in the program if so can you access it. Is there a Manufacturer based Forum for this product and what are they saying. If not try harmony central record forum there is bound to be sombody knows about this.

Mark,The clip light on the unit is on...and it IS clip light, not a level light. And on this unit these inputs are NOT adjustable, via hardware or software. Any consumer line-level device I've hooked it up to--two phono stages and a CD player--causes it to clip on medium to loud passages. The guy at the dealer I bought it from (a music store called Buckdancer's Choice) has been really great about everything, and he'll take it back I bet, but I haven't managed to convince him that it's broken; he just thinks I'm doing something wrong. But when there's no adjustment (the manual says so) and line-level devices are clipping on a line-level input, there must be something wrong, it seems to me.
There's an Edirol unit for a bit more money--the FA-66--that has everything I want (Mic and instrument inputs and a stereo line-level input), and all the inputs are adjustable. I may see if the dealer will order one for me and take the M-Audio unit back.
Thanks,
Jim
Well I just went to the M Audio site and it has what appears to be
a line/ instrument switch and a pad switch and an iput level control on each input channel. Is the hole in the middle of the xlr socket a 1/4" jack socket is this controled by the pad Line/instrument volume and not the back pannel sockets.
or are they both not controlled. If so take it back.

The pad and input-level control affect only the front (1/4 inch or XLR mic) inputs. They have no effect on the inputs on the back panel. For those inputs, the manual makes it clear that you have to adjust the input level at the source.Thanks Mark,
Jim
...that there's no reason to think this thing is malfunctioning. Looks to me like it was designed this way.Jim
I recon you will find the inputs on the back are an ideal level and impedance for a patent bolivian nose flute pickup designed by none other than Mr Box.
