Charging the battery
The MPA30BT/MPA100BT ships with a rechargeable, internal battery that can power continuous audio playback for up to 20 hours. We recommend that you fully charge the battery before your first use. To charge the battery for the first time, follow this procedure:

  1. Set the POWER switch to the “OFF” position.
  2. Connect the unit to an AC power outlet. The CHARGE LED will light to indicate the battery is charging.
  3. Keep the unit plugged into AC power until the red, yellow and green LEDs light to indicate the battery has been fully charged.

NOTE: The MPA30BT/MPA100BT uses a sealed lead-acid gel battery, and the battery will slowly self-discharge when the MPA30BT/MPA100BT is not in use. Before storing the MPA30BT/MPA100BT for an extended period, fully charge the battery before storage, and then charge again every 3 months.
NOTE: The lead-acid battery needs to be recharged every 3 months for continued operation. Please replace the battery if the MPA30BT/ MPA100BT operating time noticeably decreases, even after a full charge cycle.

Getting started

  1. Connect the MPA30BT/MPA100BT to a power outlet by using the included IEC power cable.
  2. Turn all LEVEL knobs and the MAIN LEVEL knob down to the full counter-clockwise setting.
  3. Connect all analog microphone, instrument, and/or RCA cables to their respective input jacks.
  4. Power up the MPA30BT/MPA100BT by pressing the POWER switch to the “on” position.
  5. If you are using BEHRINGER wireless microphones, plug the wireless dongle into the WIRELESS SYSTEM USB input. The WIRELESS SYSTEM LEDs will light up when the wireless microphones become active.
  6. To pair a Bluetooth device with the MPA40BT/MPA40BT-PRO, follow these steps:
    • Open Bluetooth in your mobile phone, MP3 player or other Bluetooth equipment to pair and connect.
    • In your Bluetooth device, enter the PIN code: 0000 (Bluetooth version 2.0 and above will not require a PIN code).
    • If your Bluetooth device does not receive a connection request, press and hold the Bluetooth button until it flashes quickly, and then re-scan for devices on your mobile phone or mp3 player.
  7. While playing music from your Bluetooth device, turn the BLUETOOTH/MP3 LEVEL knob to about the 50% position.
  8. Slowly rotate the MAIN LEVEL knob clockwise until you achieve a comfortable listening level.
  9. While speaking into each microphone, slowly rotate the INPUT LEVEL knob clockwise until you find a clean, clear sound. If a microphone signal sounds distorted, rotate the LEVEL knob slowly counter-clockwise until the sound cleans up.
  10. If you have an instrument plugged into an INPUT channel, play the instrument and slowly rotate that channel’s LEVEL knob clockwise until you find an acceptable level.
  11. Balance all of the audio channels against each other by adjusting each channel’s respective LEVEL knob until you find an acceptable mix.
  12. Make final adjustments to the MAIN LEVEL knob.
