Mon (Monitor) Mute Switch
This switch mutes the Monitor Outputs, without mut-
ing the Headphone Output. This switch does not affect
recording.
Mix (Ratio) Control
Mbox 2 Mini gives you the ability to monitor your ana-
log input signals while recording, without the delay in-
curred by A/D/A converters and host-based processing.
This zero-latency analog monitoring is controlled with
the Mix knob, which you can use to blend and adjust
the monitor ratio between Mbox 2 Mini analog inputs
and Pro Tools playback.
To listen to just the source input signal, turn the Mix
knob fully left to Input. To listen to Pro Tools output
only, turn the knob fully right to Playback.
The output from the Mix control is routed directly to
the Mon Out (Monitor Outputs), and is mirrored in the
Headphone output.
This ability to blend and control the relative levels of
Pro Tools playback and latency-free live analog inputs
can be particularly effective when overdubbing.
USB LED
The USB LED indicates that the Mbox 2 Mini has re-
ceived power from its USB connection. Once the USB
light is on, audio can pass in or out of the system.
Input 1 Gain Control
This knob adjusts the input gain level of the Input 1 Mic
or Line/DI input, depending on which input is enabled
by the back panel Mic/DI switch.
Input 2 Gain Control
This knob adjusts the input gain level of the Input 2
Line/DI input.
