USEFUL TIPS
*It is always re ommended to have only one devi e onne ted at a time. If your station
will be onsistently hanging onne ted devi es, then it is re ommended to unpair the
devi e when you are done using it. That way it will be easier for the next user to pair
and onne t their different devi e.
**As a note, not all devi es will have full Bluetooth fun tionality. Some phones may
onne t for alls, but not be able to stream musi , and vi e versa.
***If your studio is only using one devi e, then it isn't ne essary to pair and re-pair the
devi e every time you are using it. Rather, it is more effe tive to onne t (if not already
onne ted) dire tly from the devi e's menu.
