When recording on Mbox, you are actually monitoring the audio signal going to Mbox. If the record enabled audio track is not muted, you will also be monitoring the signal going out of Pro Tools back to Mbox. This will be heard as a doubling effect because you are hearing both the input and the latent output at the same time. <br \/>2) Adjust the &#8220;Mix&#8221; knob on Mbox to prevent any echo or latency sound. <br \/>3) Press the &#8220;Mono&#8221; button on Mbox. This will prevent the input signal from sounding hard panned left or right when adjusting the Mix knob on Mbox.
