2 Channel Mic-Level Microphone Mixer
Description
MLM-2 2 Channel Mic-Level Microphone Mixer for Surveillance and Audio Monitoring Systems
The MLM-2 2 Channel Microphone Mixer is a compact, professional-grade audio mixer designed to power and combine the output of two ETS ML1 series surveillance microphones into a single selectable line-level or mic-level output. Ideal for expanding audio coverage or combining multiple monitoring zones, the MLM-2 provides flexible integration with DVRs, IP cameras, and ETS audio monitoring systems.
Expand Surveillance Audio Coverage
The MLM-2 allows installers to connect and mix audio from two separate microphones into one recording or monitoring input. This makes it perfect for:
- Expanding audio coverage within a single room or zone
- Monitoring two independent areas simultaneously
- Enhancing IP camera audio systems with broader pickup coverage
- Integrating multiple microphones into DVR-based surveillance systems
When paired with the ETS SMEA-1, the MLM-2 can significantly improve sound coverage for IP camera applications.
Flexible Audio Output Options
The MLM-2 includes a switch-selectable line level or mic level output, making it compatible with a wide variety of recording and surveillance equipment.
Features include:
- 3.5mm audio output jack for DVRs, IP cameras, and recorders
- 3.5mm microphone input jacks for ML1 series microphones
- Optional –3.5MM or –FL (Flying Leads) output cable configurations
Independent Audio Controls
For precise audio tuning, the MLM-2 provides dedicated controls for each microphone channel:
- Separate volume controls for each microphone
- Selectable low-cut filters for reducing unwanted low-frequency noise
- LED power indicator for easy status monitoring
These controls allow installers to optimize audio quality for different environments and applications.

Application
- Expanded Audio Coverage: A security integrator may use the MLM-2 to expand the audio coverage of a single surveillance zone by integrating two Sound Surveillance microphones into one output, ensuring comprehensive audio monitoring.
- Multi-Zone Monitoring: The MLM-2 enables security integrators to monitor up to two separate zones simultaneously by mixing the audio outputs of multiple microphones together, allowing for comprehensive surveillance coverage.
- Integration with DVRs and IP Cameras: Designed to be located next to a DVR or IP camera, the MLM-2 facilitates seamless integration of audio surveillance with existing security systems, enhancing overall monitoring capabilities.
- Balanced Sound Levels: Security integrators can adjust the volume levels of each microphone independently to ensure balanced sound levels across all microphones, preventing one microphone from dominating the overall sound.
- Flexible Power Source: With a requirement for a 120VAC power source within 3 feet of its location, the MLM-2 offers flexibility in power connectivity. In scenarios where this is not feasible, integrators can extend the power source using 18 AWG, 2-conductor cable, providing adaptability to diverse installation environments.
- Optimized Audio Quality: By experimenting with the level controls of each microphone, integrators can fine-tune the audio output to achieve the desired overall volume and optimize audio quality for surveillance purposes.
- Enhanced Surveillance Capabilities: Integrating the MLM-2 into security setups allows for enhanced surveillance capabilities, enabling security personnel to monitor critical areas with improved audio coverage and clarity.
- Cost-Effective Solution: The MLM-2 offers a cost-effective solution for expanding audio surveillance capabilities without the need for additional complex equipment, making it suitable for various security integration projects.
- Streamlined Installation: With its compact design and simple installation requirements, the MLM-2 streamlines the integration process, saving time and effort for security integrators during setup and deployment.
- Versatile Application: Whether used in commercial, residential, or industrial settings, the MLM-2 offers versatility in surveillance applications, providing reliable audio monitoring solutions tailored to specific security needs.
