Anyone own a Audient ASP880?

I just picked one up used. I’m using a SM57 into the preamps then ADAT into an ID14. On vocals and acoustic it hard to get above -20db on the mix indicator in protools without having the preamp all the way up.

Is this normal or should I look at returning this device?

BTW my ID14MKII is only at 3 o’clock on the preamp knob but matches the cranked ASP.

I feel like I’m missing something. Some kind of ADAT setting in protools? Or maybe this this normal for ASP units?

I’ve tired all preamps and switched all cables XLR and optical. Even switch between two SM57s. Same result.

Any suggestions would be great, thanks!
