predator / vivere volumes & remotes

i'm just wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

i find that, to my ears, i get better sound if i turn down the volume on my vivere feeding into my predator.

however, the moment the vivere volume moves off full, the remote from the predator plays havoc with it. volume up or volume down on the predator remote, means instant, unpredictable response on the vivere.

put the vivere back to full volume. no interference..
