Hi there. I've just bought an ADI-2 and have spent a couple of hours trying to connect it to my MBox 2, but still haven't got it right. I've used the instructions, but am finding them hard to understand.  What I've done so far is:

- used spdif cables to connect the 'in' to the 'out' and the 'out' to the 'in' of the two units
- attached my monitors to the output of the ADI-2
- attached the power to the ADI-2

- set the INPUT LEVEL  to Lo Gain
- and the OUTPUT LEVEL TO -10 dBV
- set the INPUT to COAX
- set the CLOCK to INP (i.e. the only dot that doesn't have a number of letters beside it)

What I get is a huge amount of volume which isn't affected by the VOL pot on the ADI-2 itself. The only way to turn it down is by using the volume control on the player I'm using (e.g. iTunes). Which becomes a problem when I'm playing a Pro Tools session because the only overall volume control is the Master Bus, which is a bad one to turn down because it kind of wrecks the mix.

I've looked around the iMac's System Setting for an option to switch the sound controls over to the ADI-2, but I can't seem to find anything.

I'm sure this is the dumbest question ever, but anyone able to see what I'm missing?

Thanks!!
