Hi. I've got a joemeek vc6q. Every time I turn it on, all the LED meters light up all the way across, like every channel is maxing out - both the compressor gain reduction meter and the input gain meter. It doesn't matter if I turn all the knobs way down low.

Okay, so - tell me what stupid thing it is that I'm doing. Alternately, anybody recognize this one?
 
that's perfectly normal, happens to mine everytime.

It's just the unit turning on, like when a car turns on its "check engine soon" light when you first start it.
 
Im pretty sure that means you fried it, in which case i could take it off your hands for $20...i think they are perty.....
 
as an addendum, I think it's safe to mention that you should always have your monitors be the last thing you turn on..... turning on gear is loud.

I heard they make a great centerpiece. The green really evens out your room's feng shui.
 
Thanks for the idea C7, but that doesn't work.

Oh, I forgot to mention - not only do all the LED meters all light up, but they stay that way. All lit up. Very disconcerting.

I opened it up and had a look inside, but everything seems normal.

Poo.

well, if they all stay lit up, that's certainly a problem.
perhaps a pin-wiring problem?

I'm not really all that good with electronics.
:(
 
i would unplug everything from the box besides the power cable, and see if it still does that. If not, insert cable by cable and find out which input is causing the problem. If that doesn't help, send the unit back, they hate when customers try to fix their products and mess up even more.
