To pair a new device to your StudioLive AR-series mixer:
1. Press and hold the Bluetooth pairing button for three seconds.
2.
The Bluetooth button will flash once every second.
3.
Search for new Bluetooth devices from the device to
which you’d like to pair (smartphone, tablet, etc).

Bluetooth devices list on the pairing device.

Monitor Buses
The monitor bus provides outputs to route auxiliary mixes that are separate
from the main mix. StudioLive AR-series mixers are equipped with 2/2/1 monitor
buses, which have physical output jacks, and one internal effects bus.
Monitor buses can be used for many applications, the two most common of which
are creating monitor mixes and inserting external effects processors into the mix.

each signal and get to a great monitor mix more quickly.
