How would I connect a scarlett 2i2 to this?

Question: what is a scarlet 2i2???

im new at this and i have question about the button on the back that says operating level, what level do you use +4db or -10db and why

Consumer grade audio equipment and computer sound cards typically have line inputs which run at -10 db. Professional grade equipment like the dbx 286s can output line levels in the range -10 to +4 db. The 286s can output any signal level in that range. The switch on the back is provided so that the 286s can be connected to consumer grade equipment without damaging the driven device. Please note: Applying a +4 db audio output into a -10 db audio input could cause damage to the input device. Care should be exercised whenever connecting professional grade equipment to consumer grade equipment. This information is also covered in the dbx 286s user manual.

can it be used with the 286s mic preamp from dbx

The compressor has inserts and XLR connectors in/out and you could probably chain any other rack gear to the 266xs.I am not really familiar with the 286s mic preamp but I am sure there is a way to use it.I have to say this dbx 266xs is a really nice compressor and very easy to use.

Can i run unbalanced in and xlr out, or do i need to run balanced in if i want balanced out? thanks

You can run unbalanced in, though there is a higher chance of noise in the system, I do not recall if there are XLR output connections, if there are jacks for XLR then yes you can run unblance in and XLR out.
