Welcome to Matrox MXO2

Matrox MXO2 connects to your Mac system to provide broadcast-quality

workflow with supported video editing applications. MXO2 provides built-in
surround sound monitoring, as well as the flexibility to map any audio track from
a video editing application to any audio output. MXO2 also features the Matrox
HDMI Calibration Utility, which is a unique tool designed to calibrate your RGB
HDMI monitor or television so that it performs like a traditional broadcast video
