1. While BlueDriver is off, set the Role Select
Switch to <Phone>.
2. Simply plug BlueDriver-M3 into any
mic level input of your mixer or console
and pair to a cell phone.
3. Place or take a call. This setup allows voice
band, bi-directional audio to and from
your cell phone.
4. The mini cable provided with your
BlueDriver allows you to connect a
line output or headphone output of
your mixer to the <Send> jack on the
BlueDriver-M3. This signal goes back
to the caller, so make sure you don’t
send the Caller’s voice back to the caller.

1. While BlueDriver is off, set the Role Select
Switch to <Headset>.
2. Simply connect the supplied cord
between the <Send> mini jack on your
BlueDriver-M3 and the line level or
headphone output jack of your audio
source.
3. Pair to your Bluetooth headphones
or speakers.
Keep in mind that Bluetooth A2DP
processing adds a 150 millisecond delay,
so this application is more appropriate for
pre-recorded or broadcast applications that do
not have a live mic or interactive conversation.
A2DP is a one-way transmission, with nothing
coming back on the return channel.

BlueDriver-M3™Connect Applications
Mix-Minus Setup
1. On whichever input channel you have
the BlueDriver-M3™connected, turn the
corresponding Aux or FX control to minimum.
All other input channel Aux controls should be
at their desired settings for the “Mix-Minus”
feed returning to the BlueDriver-M3™.
2. Connect the FX Send output to the Send input
on the BlueDriver-M3™. The FX Send output will
send all audio except the caller audio.
The Aux or FX Send bus is completely separate
from all other outputs, so these Aux controls
will not affect what is heard on the Main
outputs or on any other Aux or FX buses.
