1. Make sure the Power switch is in the OFF position.
2. Plug your microphone into either the XLR or ¼˝
jack input of the combo jack.
3. Switch on the BPA unit.
4. Refer to the "Setting Level Controls" section of this manual for instructions on how to
properly adjust the Mic Level controls.
If using a second microphone, connect the microphone to the Mic 2 Input and follow the
procedure detailed above.
Always stand behind the BPA when making your microphone adjustments to avoid feed-
back distortion.
Your BPA225 features ultra-low noise Mic/Line inputs via combo XLR & ¼˝ TRS stereo jacks.
After you set the levels on all input devices, you can readjust the BPA225 levels as
necessary.
APPLICATION USES
Microphone Presentations
You can use the Line In combo XLR & ¼˝ input to connect a mixer or the RCA inputs to
connect an additional stereo signal source such as a smart phone, tablet, MP3 player, CD
player, etc.
1. Make sure the Power switch is in the OFF position.
2. Connect the mixer to the XLR input or line level signal source to the RCA inputs
(never use both at once) .
3. Switch on the BPA unit.
4. Refer to the "Setting Level Controls" section of this manual for instructions on how to
properly adjust the input level controls (gains).
Line Input
Because mixers feature two volume controls (channel and master), when con-
necting one via the XLR line in port, the procedure is slightly different. The
BPA225 master volume should be set to 50% and the Line/MP3 Level control
should be set to 50%. Set the mixer master volume to 50% and make the
adjustments in step 4 on the mixer channel level control. If after making these
adjustments the signal still isn’t strong enough, you can additionally boost the
signal by turning up the Line/MP3 Level control.
When adjusting the Mic 1/Mic 2 Level controls, you must speak into the
microphone and adjust the level control as needed. This is because adjustments
to the mic input are a matter of mic volume in relation to the music volume and
not necessarily a clipping issue.
