I recently bought a neve 511 preamp, and can't resolve one issue even though I feel like I've tried everything. For some reason, it seems like it is outputting nothing into pro tools. What I do end up getting is much lower in volume than what it should be, and is only the high end of the signal. The 511 displays a healthy level.

I have tested this with mics requiring phantom power and ones that don't, I have tested the entire line with other modules in my lunchbox and everything works fine. I have tried plugging it into different slots. I exchanged the module for a new one, and have the same issue. I even sold my original lunchbox (API 500-8b) and bought the Neve R6, and still the problem is there.

My best guess is that it's a power issue, but I can't figure out where. The R6 displays that it is drawing 200mA of current, which is above what the 511 should need. I have the R6 plugged into a Furman m-8 power conditioner, and have tried running the line to different power sources.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!
