The TonePort transmits the same signal on the left and right channels, but 
with largely different amplification. So if you hear a noisy signal in the 
right channel, try to move the balance entirely to the left side, where you 
might have the clear signal, which simply could not have been heard while the 
right channel was active. You can also use the monitor control in a mixer 
application to adjust the volume of the guitar signal.

I just added support for source select on the UX2 under the assumption that 
it's identical as on the UX1 in the following subversion branch:

https://line6linux.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/line6linux/driver/branches/ux2

Please also have a look at

http://sourceforge.net/projects/line6linux/forums/forum/713265/topic/3695415

which is the discussion with an UX1 user finally leading to some of UX1's 
features being supported. Can you please provide the list of source select 
options of the UX2 (as requested in posting #12 in the above mentioned forum 
thread)?

	Kind regards,
