I have a couple of Studio Projects VTB1 mic pre's. They don't have anon/off switch, you plug them in and they're on.However, when turning them off i.e. turning off the power strip they'replugged into, I notice that the level meter slams into the full/max redzone. It doesn't matter where the input/output gain controls are set,does this every time.Is there any reason to be concerned about this? They seem to work fineso far, but I cringe every time this happens. Obviously I have to beable to turn them off and the manufacturer hasn't provided any otherway to do it.Is this normal and nothing to be concerned about?Thanks for all shared wisdom.
