Pre-Fader Meters
When this option is selected, the meters display
the level of a signal before it passes the fader.
This allows signal levels to be displayed regard-
less of the fader positions within the stereo mix
(in other words, a fader can be all the way down
and no sound will be heard from the mixer’s
output, but you can still see if there is any activ-
ity on that input).
FX Sends Mode
Pre-Fader FX Sends
When Pre-Fader FX Sends is selected, the full au-
dio signal will be sent to the FX Sends, regardless
of the position of the Channel Faders of stereo
mix 1–2.
Post-Fader (Mix 1/2) FX Sends
When Post-Fader (Mix 1/2) is selected, the audio
signal level being sent to the FX Sends will be af-
fected by the position of the Channel Faders of
Stereo Mix 1.

nection to the computer when the Mbox Pro is
first powered on, then it boots into standalone
mode.

ing functions can be adjusted:
