FreePlay Connect

Introduction

Do you want to control FreePlay™ via your Android

or iOS device? Of course you do! Well, you’ve come to the right

place! After all, the FreePlay Connect™ App is designed to be

used in conjunction with FreePlay.

At this point, you must be well-versed in – or at least

somewhat familiar with – the ins and outs of FreePlay.

More information about FreePlay may be found by visiting

the FreePlay Owner’s Manual.

FreePlay Connect is great for mobile freedom to control

everything from levels and EQ to room-enhancing sound like

reverb and speaker modes for amazing sound in any situation.

FreePlay Connect allows control of FreePlay via Bluetooth

with the following devices:

You should be able to stream audio from any

Bluetooth-paired device. However, the FreePlay

Connect app is needed to mix audio, including

wireless adjustments of level, EQ, reverb and more.

The FreePlay Connect app does not mix audio

on its own. It requires a FreePlay to fully function.

Reference Guide

FreePlay Connect V1.0

This version of the Reference Guide is written and

designed for FreePlay Connect V1.0. With each software

update, some screenshots may look slightly different than

what you see within these pages and there could be some

functional differences, as well.

So there you have it. We hope you like it. If you have

any questions or comments about this Reference Guide

(or our other documentation), please don’t hesitate

to contact us: www.mackie.com/support

About This Guide

The entire guide does not need to be read to figure out how

to use the FreePlay Connect app. However, a certain amount of

familiarity with the FreePlay and its features is assumed.

As the saying goes, “a picture tells a 1000 words”. With that

thought in mind, we added quite a few illustrations, screenshots

and other images throughout to accompany the text.

This icon marks information that is critically

important or unique! For your own good, read

and remember them.

There’s an illustration of a microscope, so,

of course, you’re going to get more detailed

information when you see this little guy.

There are explanations of features and

practical tips listed here.

It’s a good idea to pay attention to text displayed

next to a note icon, as this icon draws attention

to certain features and functions relating to the

usage of the FreePlay Connect app.

Things to Remember:

• Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods.

• Life is short. Be cool.

Getting Started

There are a few steps to accomplish before messin’ around

with the FreePlay Connect app. For starters, we’ll take a look at

how to download, install and update the app. Next, we’ll pair the

device with the hardware via Bluetooth. The last step is setting

levels.

With FreePlay Connect, FreePlay users benefit from the full

power of their FreePlay with an easy-to-use application that fits

right in their hand.

* This is a list of our test devices, but a variety of other devices are anticipated

to work with Android v6.0 and higher and Apple iOS 10.0 and higher.

FreePlay Connect

Part I: Downloading and Installing

the FreePlay Connect App for Android

The easiest and fastest way to download and install the

FreePlay Connect app is directly from the device. You’ve

downloaded apps before and it’s the same method to download

this one, as well. Here’s how:

1. Start by turning the device on (if it’s not already).

6. Now tap the green ACCEPT button to begin installing

the FreePlay Connect app to a device.

2. With a good data connection open up the Play Store.

The FreePlay Connect app is now ready for use. From here,

there are two ways to open the FreePlay Connect app.

First, simply tap the green OPEN button to open

the app...

the top of the screen followed by tapping the ‘Search’ button.

...or second, exit out of the Play Store back to the home

screen. Tap the FreePlay Connect app!

5. Now tap the INSTALL button.

Part II: Pairing and Connecting

the Android Device via Bluetooth

You should have to follow these instructions

only once for each device paired via Bluetooth.

After that they should remain paired, although

you will need to connect manually to the FreePlay

(unless auto connect is turned on) [Default]. FreePlay will auto

connect to previously paired devices, if available.

These are the steps necessary to pair the device

with the FreePlay.

1. Start by turning both the device and FreePlay on

(if they’re not already).

2. Tap Settings to open the device’s settings.

5. To enter pairing mode, press and hold the BT / Aux button

on the top panel of the FreePlay.

The button LED will illuminate and flash white

rapidly while in pairing mode. If it does not,

start the pairing process again; confirm that the

FreePlay is in pairing mode and that Bluetooth is enabled on the

device. Please review the FreePlay Owner’s Manual if you need

additional details.

6. As seen below, the FreePlay is listed as a device,

but is not connected.

Reference Guide

7. Here we’re trying to pair and connect the FreePlay

via Bluetooth.

3. Enable Bluetooth simply by swiping right. [Tapping also

enables / disables Bluetooth].

8. From there, your device should indicate that

it is successfully paired and connected.

9. Now simply return to the home screen on the device,

tap the FreePlay Connect icon to open the app and let the

good times roll OR go straight to the app once connected!

4. Bluetooth is on!
