Connecting Keyboards and Mixers
To use a keyboard or mixer with Mbox 2:
1 Plug your keyboard, mixer, or other audio
source into either the Input 1 or Input 2 Line
(TRS) inputs on your Mbox 2. If your source is
stereo (such as a stereo keyboard or the stereo
output from a mixer), connect the left channel
(often the white plug) to Input 1, and right
channel (often the red plug) to Input 2.
2 On the front of the Mbox 2, set the Source to
Mic by pressing the Mic/DI switch until the Mic
LED is lit.

trol fully left to Input.
Source selector and Gain control for Input 1
When you record a guitar (or any mono in-
strument that uses only one source input),
you will hear the sound in only one side of
the stereo field. Pushing the “mono” button
on the front of the Mbox 2 brings the sound
from one side of the stereo field to both
sides. The Mono switch does not affect the
audio being recorded. It only affects how
you hear your input to the Mbox 2.
