MIX 2:1™  User Guide

1

OVERVIEW

the mIX 2:1 is a simple summing mixer that makes merging two audio signals easy. Whether you need to sum mic or 

line level signals, or the outputs of two separate devices, the mIX 2:1 allows you to do so without noise or coloration of 

the sound. XLR and ¼” tRS inputs are provided for easy connectivity, with a single XLR output to feed your destination 

device. Level controls are available for each input that can be bypassed entirely to sum the left and right outputs of a 

mixing console or recording interface. A 180° polarity reverse switch opens up other options such as summing a snare 

top and bottom mic together to a single preamp, and ground lift switches help eliminate buzz and hum from ground loops.
