Applies to Vocaster Two

Using Bluetooth

Vocaster Two’s Bluetooth connection lets you wirelessly stream audio to and from Bluetooth devices*, such as your phone, to the Vocaster to include in your recording. To transfer audio between a phone and Vocaster Two, you must pair the two devices.

To pair and ensure a stable connection, Bluetooth needs your device and your Vocaster to be within range of each other. The range is approximately 7 meters in open space: outside this range, the devices may not pair. At the limit of this range, or with obstructions, you might experience problems such as dropouts or glitches.

Vocaster Two can only connect to one bluetooth device at a time.

How to pair Vocaster Two to a Bluetooth device

1. Press and hold the Bluetooth button on the rear panel for four seconds. The Bluetooth icon located on the top panel pulses white to show it’s in pairing mode.
2. Go to the Bluetooth pairing menu on your Bluetooth device and scan for new devices – how this works can vary between devices, so if you’re unsure, please see the user guide for your device. 
3. Choose Vocaster BT from the list of available devices.
4. Allow your Bluetooth device to pair with the Vocaster if prompted.

Once paired

Vocaster Two’s Bluetooth icon lights blue after a few seconds to show your device has connected. When you play audio on your device, it appears in Vocaster Hub’s Bluetooth mixer channel, for you to include in your Show Mix and recording.

You can also stream audio from your Bluetooth device to speakers connected to Vocaster Twos line outputs, and both Host and Guest headphones outputs. 

Your Vocaster sends its audio, e.g. sounds from your computer and the Host/Guest inputs, back to your phone via Bluetooth for your caller to hear. Bluetooth audio can only be sent from Vocaster to phones during phone calls to communicate with your guest. The guest hears a mix-minus, the whole mix, but without their own voice.

You can control Bluetooth audio level in Vocaster Hub, and on your connected device. Level control in Vocaster Hub only controls the Show Mix level and won’t affect the Bluetooth L/R recording tracks.
