Pro Tools SE + M-Audio FastTrack (Low Instrument Gain)

[wcsd106]

Hi All.

I recently purchased a M-Audio Fast Track guitar / Mic recording interface. I have been using Pro Tools SE with a Developer USB Microphone for a few months and have really been impressed with what I've been able to do so far.

After purchasing the FastTrack and getting the drivers installed, I can load Pro Tools SE but whenever I try to record my guitar from the input, the audio is extremely low. It records the guitar, but even with the volume on my guitar turned up all the way it still barely gets into the yellow on the signal meter.

I have tried just about everything that I know to do, and was hoping that someone here had resolved the same problem before.

Do I need to purchase a preamp for my guitar in order to get the audio levels high enough for the FastTrack to amplify them?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank You
