The M-Patch 2 is a versatile, high quality unit designed for a broad range
of professional audio applications. With a compliment of professional
connections and controls, the M-Patch 2 serves as the master volume control
and audio switch in rack-mount, desk-top and portable recording, broadcast,
video post production, and sound reinforcement systems. Installed in desk-
top computer audio production systems, the M-Patch 2 provides essential
capabilities often missing from those systems.
The M-Patch 2 is essentially a multi-channel stereo attenuator using passive
circuitry that maintains the integrity of the signal path sending pure-clean
audio to your speakers and connected receiving devices. Housed in a rugged
metal enclosure, the M-Patch 2 is designed to provide years of reliable
performance in professional audio facilities where ever its versatile features

professional multi-channel installations, distributed sound systems, or any
other audio and video post production environments, the M-Patch 2 adds high
quality zone and/or channel control wherever it‘s needed.
NOTE: The sound pressure level (SPL) produced by the audio system is
dependent on the specic speakers or headphones and the power amplier
in the system. Listening at high volumes can cause damage to your ears and
sound reproduction equipment. Therefore, exercise caution when adjusting
M-Patch 2 volume controls.
