which are what most adapters output.
2USB Input. Connect your USB source to the
Modi Multibit’s USB-C input with a quality USB
cable, not more than 2 meters long.
3 Optical Input. Connect your optical source to
the optical input jack, using a quality Toslink

Press and hold to go into NOS mode.
2 USB Input. This light turns on when you’ve
selected a USB source.

Note: Modi Multibit 2 ashes all three lights
(2, 3, and 4) in sequence for about 20 seconds
after you rst turn it on to prevent any thumps,
bumps, or other weird noises. Once the lights
stop ashing, you’re ready to use Modi Multibit 2.
Another Note: When in NOS mode, the selected
input light will slowly pulse.
And that’s it. This is a really simple device. Why
don’t you have a listen now?
