Input mic volume louder than output?!

I'll try and keep this as short as possible.

I'm using the looper within ableton,when I record through the mic the loop played back is quieter. I have all the metres turned up but nothing changes.

My equipment is a kaoss pad 3,m-audio 2x2M and a subzero SZ-MIX04.

I have the mic plugged into the kp3 as I want to alter my voice for beatboxing. Am I missing something obvious,maybe the way my cables are setup?

Regards
 
I just looked at pictures of it and I don't see a mic input. Microphones put out a very low level signal, which requires a preamp. You need a mic preamp. there is one in the mixer, but you would have to figure out a way to route the mic signal out of it and into the KP3. A bigger mixer would have aux sends for this purpose, but that mixer seems to be very minimalist.
