PA-300BT PORTABLE LINE ARRAY
SPEAKER SYSTEM
BALANCED LINE LEVEL SOURCE
Mixer channels 1 and 2 on the rear panel
of the unit are used to connect balanced
line sources as well as
microphones. Switch the
channel to LINE level and
connect your device. This
type of connection would
typically be used to connect
professional gear like mixers
or electronic instruments.
AUX INPUT
Locate mixer channel 3/4 and find
at the bottom a 3.5mm TRS Jack. This
type of connection is commonly used
to connect the unit to the headphones
output of a mobile device.
RCA INPUT
Just above the AUX Jack on mixer
channel 3/4 are the RCA jacks. This
type of connection is typically used to
connect devices like CD or DVD players.
Note:
Left and right channels are color
coded white and red.
BLUETOOTH PAIRING
• The PA-300BT can accept streaming audio
from any Bluetooth-equipped portable
device. First, make sure Bluetooth
is enabled on your portable
device. Locate channels 3/4 on
the back of the PA-300BT and
press the BLUETOOTH button.
You will hear a tone and a blue
LED will begin to flash to indicate
the unit is in PAIRING mode.
• On your mobile device, search for a
Bluetooth device called “PA-300BT” and
select it to pair. Once pairing is
complete, you will hear another
series of tones, and the blue
LED will light solid. Your mobile
device is now connected and
ready to stream music.
ADDITIONAL SPEAKER
If you would like to connect
another speaker to the PA-300BT
(for instance, another PA-300BT
to form a stereo pair), first
locate the MIC OUT XLR Jack
on the rear of the unit. Connect
a standard XLR cable from the
MIX OUT Jack to the input of the
additional speaker.
USING THE INTERNAL MIXER
MASTER VOLUME
The master volume is the main volume
control on the PA-300BT. Use it to control
the overall level of the PA-300BT.
POWER/LIMIT LED
This LED is located directly underneath the
MASTER VOLUME knob. When the PA-
300BT is powered on, this LED will light
green. While the unit is operational, if this
LED lights red that indicates the unit is being
overdriven and the volume should be turned
down immediately.
CHANNEL VOLUMES
At the top of each mixer
channel is the LEVEL or
VOLUME CONTROL for
that channel. These knobs
control the relative volume
of that channel only. So,
if you wanted to (for instance) lower the
level of the AUX IN in relation to one of the
microphones, you would turn down the
LEVEL of channel 3.
MIC/LINE SWITCH
These switches, located under the
volume controls for channels 1 and
2, are used to set the input to the
appropriate level for the connected
device. If plugging in a mic, set the
switch to MIC (and vice versa).
REVERB SWITCH
On mixer channels 1 and 2 there is a
REVERB ON/OFF switch. When in the
ON position, a reverb effect is added
to that channel. This is commonly
used on microphones and acoustic
instruments to add more depth.
REVERB AMOUNT KNOB
This knob, located under the MASTER
VOLUME knob, controls the strength
of the reverb effect. Turning this
knob clockwise increases the
strength of the reverb.
DSP PRESETS
The PA-300BT DSP is like
a computerized EQ with
presets. The PRESET DSP
button allows you to change
between music, live, Hi Fi or
speech presets.
