Quick Start
Windows users: Before connecting M-Track 2X2 to your computer, install the drivers:
1.! Go to m-audio.com/drivers and download the latest M-Track 2X2 driver for your
operating system.
2.! Open the file you downloaded and double-click the driver installer file.
3.! Follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers.
Note:
•! Remember to select M-Track 2X2 as your interface in the Preferences, Options, Device
Setup, etc. in your digital audio workstation (DAW).
•! Use the +48V (Phantom Power) Switch only if a microphone requires phantom power.
Most dynamic microphones and ribbon microphones do not require phantom power, but
most condenser microphones do. Consult your microphone's documentation to find out
whether it needs phantom power.

1.! Input Gain: Adjusts the input's gain
level. Set this knob so the
corresponding LED Meter (located
below the knob) displays a "healthy"
level during performance—but not so
high that the meter "clips" or peaks,
causing distortion in the audio.
2.! LED Meters: Indicates the input
signal level from the Combo Input or
Instrument Input.
3.! USB / Direct Blend: Adjusts the mix
of the audio signal from your inputs
(Direct) and the audio output of your
computer (USB) that will be sent to
the Main Outputs and Headphone Output.
This knob is useful for dealing with “latency” when you are recording in your DAW.
Latency is a delay in sound that may occur between the incoming sound (playing your
instrument, singing, etc.) and outgoing sound (when you hear it in the DAW).
Latency is often the result of the “buffer size” setting, which is usually located in your
DAW’s Preferences, Options, or Device Setup menu. Higher buffer sizes generally result
in higher latency. In some cases, lower buffer size settings can consume a lot of your
computer’s CPU and cause audio glitches. To prevent these audio glitches, you will need
to use a higher buffer setting, and this may result in latency.
If you are experiencing latency when recording, adjust the knob towards the Direct
position to increase the blend of unprocessed audio from your inputs directly to your
Main Outputs and Headphone Output. This will let you hear the incoming audio from
your inputs without latency while still being able to hear the audio from your DAW. When
listening to the playback, adjust the knob all the way to the USB position.
If your computer is powerful enough, you may be able to set the buffer size setting in
your DAW low enough such that you may never need to listen to the direct audio signal
from your inputs. In this case, set the USB / Direct Blend knob all the way to the USB
position to monitor only the audio output of your DAW.
4.! Headphone Level: Adjusts the output volume of the Headphone Output.
5.! Monitor Level: Adjusts the output volume of Main Outputs, which should be connected
to your powered monitors or amplifier system.
6.! Power LED: Lights up when a valid USB connection has been established between your
computer and M-Track 2X2. Use this light to verify that M-Track 2X2 is receiving power
and is ready to use.
7.! +48V (Phantom Power) LED: Lights up when phantom power is engaged.

1.! USB Port (Type C): This
connection will allow you to send
audio and MIDI data to and from
a computer. Use the included
USB-C-to-USB-C or USB-C-toUSB-A cables to connect the MTrack 2X2 to a computer. The MTrack 2X2 requires a USB 2.0
connection (or higher).
2.! Combo Input: Connect a microphone, a guitar or bass with an active pickup, or a linelevel device to this input. For microphones, use an XLR or 1/4” (6.35 mm) TRS cable. For
a guitar or bass with an active pickup, use a standard 1/4” (6.35 mm) TS cable. For linelevel signals, use a 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cable. View the input signal level with the LED
Meters.
3.! Main Outputs: Use standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cables to connect these outputs to
your powered monitors, amplifier system, etc. The mix you hear from these outputs will
be determined by the USB / Direct Blend knob. The level of these outputs is controlled
by the Monitor Level knob.
4.! Kensington Lock Slot: You can use this Kensington lock slot to secure M-Track 2X2 to a
table or other surface.

1.! Headphone Output: Connect 1/4"
(6.35 mm) TRS headphones to this
output. The mix you hear from this
output will be determined by the
USB / Direct Blend knob. The level
of this output is controlled by the
Headphone Level knob.
2.! Instrument Input: Connect a guitar with a passive pickup or other high-impedance signal
to this input with a 1/4" (6.35 mm) TS cable. View the input signal level with the LED Meters.
3.! +48V (Phantom Power) Switch: This switch activates and deactivates phantom power.
When activated (lit), phantom power supplies +48 volts to the Combo Input. Please note
that most dynamic microphones and ribbon microphones do not require phantom power,
while most condenser microphones do. Consult your microphone's documentation to
find out whether it needs phantom power.
