i know a fair amount of you have vc1qs, so i though i might run this by ya'll. i find that when the compressor is engaged and a decent level is push through the box, it starts to make this "flickering" noise. it doesn't sound like pumping. it can happen at most any setting, but i can get it to happen with lower mic input levels if i increase the release time to its maximum 2.5 seconds. what the hell is going on? it seems like it's just not working right and the compressor isn't "catching" and keeps fluctuating the volume on the input. any ideas? who can i send this to?

you can push the meter but it does crap out if pushed to hard :cool:
 
it's not distorting. it flickers. the volume goes up and town extremely fast. like it's doing a compressor thing but it can't keep the volume down, keeps popping up. it's like the attack works, but the release doesn't. it has no release or something. i don't know. i'll try to record it within the next couple days. maybe i'm wrong and it's crapping out...
