Why are those LEDs so bright? I love my Shuttle 3.0 but those LEDs are scorching my retina. I've tested the Shuttle 6.0 and it also has retina-burning LEDs. What about the 9.0?

Nothing is perfect; everyone knows this. Out of the thousands of people that own Shuttle 3.0/6.0/9.0, the handful that can't find anything else to complain about, bitch about the LED. FYI: "The handful" are all right here on TB. Me included.  That damn power LED is like Obi Wan's lightsaver thru my skull. Heaven forbid I try to look at my amp on a darkened stage. Oh man...."pppweeeeeeeewww!" right thru my skull!

I like mine as it's kind of a mini light show for me on stage - flashing Signal input light, etc. |

| I'm not venting. There is really nothing to dislike about the Shuttle. So, I decided to criticize the LED's
I put pieces of masking tape over the LED's and can comfortably look at them now. I don't hate blue LED's. I LOVE the blue ring of my GK MB200.
