Powering up

Your new Busker portable PA unit may arrive with you with the internal battery charged.

Before connecting to the mains, turn down all volume controls and switch the unit on (30) and

see if the power LED lights (29). If not, you will need to charge the battery before use away

from mains power.

Connect the Busker unit to the mains using the appropriate IEC power lead supplied (24).

When not in use but connected to the mains, if the POWER switch is in the OFF position, the

internal battery will be re-charged from the mains supply, indicated by a CHARGING LED (31)

which lights when charging.

You may otherwise opt to connect the DC input at the rear (32) to an external 12-15Vdc

supply (e.g car battery) or use the internal battery if charged.

When powered up, BASS and TREBLE controls (17, 18) should remain pointing vertically

(i.e. 12-o-clock position). Turn up the MASTER VOLUME control (19) part way and switch

TALKOVER (25) off.

Your Busker unit should now be ready to operate.

VHF Wireless Microphones

Extend the 2 VHF antennas (23) at the rear of the unit. Insert batteries into the handheld

microphones by carefully unscrewing the base of each and connecting the “+” and “-”

terminals of the batteries to the corresponding contacts inside the mic body, taking care to

observe the correct polarity. Turn the VHF MIC controls (2, 3) up part way for checking.

Switch on each wireless mic in turn –the signal indicator LEDs (1) on the front of the unit

should light as a result. If the LED on the transmitter lights dimly, change the battery.

Gradually increase the VHF VOL controls, testing each microphone in turn for output through

the speaker.

Take care not to incur “feedback” (howling or screeching sound through the speaker) by

keeping the microphone a sensible distance from the speaker and pointing away from the

speaker so that it doesn’t

hear

the speaker output.

Turning the ECHO control (15) clockwise adds an echo function for singing or special effects.

The BASS or TREBLE content can be cut by turning the relevant control anti-clockwise or

boosted by turning clockwise.

When not in use, switch the wireless microphones off and remove batteries if not being used

for long periods.

Busker User Manual

External Inputs

In addition to the Busker’s own VHF microphones, two 6.3mm jack inputs (20, 21) are

provided to connect external wired or wireless microphones, which are both governed by the

WIRED MIC VOL control (16). If required, the music level can be automatically muted when

speaking into a microphone by switching in the TALKOVER feature on (25)

A further 6.3mm jack input is provided for an electric or electro-acoustic guitar (22)

Also, twin RCA and 3.5mm stereo jack input are provided for line input sources such as a CD

player or smart phone. These are both independent of the media player.

Adjacent to the twin RCA input is a twin RCA line output carrying the overall main mix. This

can be fed on to further active speakers or portable PA units via a twin RCA lead.

Internal media player

Each Busker portable PA unit has an internal media player for digital audio playback from USB

or SD/MMC media, FM tuner or via Bluetooth.

Press ‘Mode’ (9) to select the function you require - USB, SD, FM radio (89-107) or Bluetooth.

 –Use this mode for both USB and SD/MMC cards

FM Radio –(the last chosen frequency will appear)

 –Use this mode for Bluetooth™ selection

Playback from USB Device or SD/MMC Card

Inserting a USB memory device into the USB connector or SD/MMC card into the SD/MMC card

slot will automatically load up and begin playback of mp3 or wma audio tracks stored on the

media.

If playback does not start, press the Play/Pause button (12) or remove the memory device and

check that the stored files are the correct compressed audio format before re-connecting.

PLAY/PAUSE (12) will alternately play or pause the selected track

PREVIOUS TRACK (11) will step backwards through tracks

Holding the PREVIOUS TRACK button will reverse seek through the current track

NEXT TRACK (13) will step forwards through tracks

Holding the NEXT TRACK button will forward seek through the current track

USB/SD will toggle between USB or SD/MMC card media playback

REPEAT will select between repeating  track or  tracks

FM Tuner

In FM tuner mode, the station frequency (in MHz) will be displayed.

For initial setup, press PLAY/PAUSE to begin the auto-tuning process.

The tuner will seek through all frequencies for strong signal reception (i.e. radio stations)

These will be stored into memory as , , , … etc.

Stored stations can then be selected using the PREVIOUS or NEXT buttons

Note: Pressing PLAY/PAUSE during auto-tune will allow manual tuning via PREVIOUS/NEXT

Bluetooth™ Connection

Select ‘’ using the mode button (9). The Bluetooth™ symbol will be flashing if it is NOT

paired with an audio device.

Scan for Bluetooth™ devices on your phone or other Bluetooth enabled audio player and check

for a device called ‘bt-speaker’. Select this device and opt to connect your Bluetooth device,

which should then state that it is connected to “bt-speaker” for audio output.

The Bluetooth™ symbol on the Busker unit should stop flashing to confirm the connection.

Play audio from your Bluetooth™ device and check for output through the Busker unit.

If there is no output, check if there is more than one device within range called “bt-speaker”

In the eventuality that more than one device is called “bt-speaker”, try each device in turn

until the Busker is found. Check also that the volume level is turned up on the sending device.

Once audio is playing through the Busker from Bluetooth, adjust the MEDIA volume control (7)

to the required volume.

Bluetooth on the Busker can only pair to a single device at any one time and should be

operable over a range of 5 to 8 metres.
