Default OMNI Preamp gain

With or without 48v, my mic signal doesn't change when i turn the preamp gain knob. Anybody seen that?

Are you coming in the front? Are you sure you're adjusting the right one. You can push the knob in to select 1 or 2.

It's busted, get Avid to replace it. I've already had one fixed, then replaced and now it needs replacing again. Seems to be a common fault with the OMNI unfortunately.

Thanks!

Jeff - I know, and I've tried them both, one at a time as well as linked.
I've also tried reinstalling firmware, rebooting Mac and OMNI, resetting OMNI and leaving off for 5 minutes before next restart.

JR - I'll try once more, and if it still doesn't work, I guess AVID has to replace it.
