I'm having an issue with my Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 audio interface. All 8 input meters will flash randomly at the same time. The first time it happened I was using 2 channels to record into Pro Tools. It didn't affect the microphone signal getting to the DAW and I could alter the gain, it just made it difficult to monitor the input signal on the meters because they were flashing. I tried switching it off and swapping the power cable, but afterwards there were no microphone signals appearing at all. All of a sudden it stopped doing it and I've been using it problem-free for about 1 week and the input meters have started flashing again.

Has anyone experienced any similar issues with this or similar devices? If not, could anyone suggest any possible solutions?

Thank you!
