BLUETOOTH SETUP
1. Set the "Wireless Pairing" switch to the ON position.
2. Enter your laptop, cell phone or tablet's Bluetooth setup options
to find the "Phonic.BT" Bluetooth device.
3. If requested, the password for the CELEUS 400's Bluetooth
function is 0000. A lot of modern smartphones will enter this as
the default password.
4. Audio signals received through the Bluetooth interface will be
routed to channel 7 on the mixer.
5. To reset the connection, turn your laptop, cell phone or tablet's
Bluetooth connection off and then on again.
6. When using cell phones and tablets, it may be an idea to turn
"Airplane Mode" or "Flight Mode" on to stop phone calls or push
notifications from interrupting your audio.
Note: Not all modern Bluetooth-enabled devices allow for use of external
audio playback. In the case of laptops in particular, Bluetooth may be used
for data transmission only - depending on the model. This is a limitation of
these devices and you will not be able to use the CELEUS 400's Bluetooth
function with these devices.

USB MODULE STORAGE
The CELEUS USB player module features approximately 70MB
of onboard storage to use for playback. That may sound small but
that could mean up to 60 minutes of music at 128 Kbps, or a few
hours of speech at 40 Kbps.
To upload files to the onboard storage, you will need a USB-A
to USB-A cable. Connect the USB connector on the face of the
CELEUS to your computer and it will be recognized as a USB
storage device. Simply copy your files to the CELEUS.
Files on onboard storage will only be available when a USB flash
drive is not connected.
AUDIO INTERFACE
By simply connecting the USB cable provided along with your
CELEUS to the device and your personal computer or laptop,
you are able to send CD quality (16-bit stereo, with a 44.1 kHz
sampling rate) signal to and from your mixer. By doing this, you are
actually turning your CELEUS 400 into a highly useful plug'n'play
soundcard for your computer.
The USB sends an audio stream of the Main Left and Right (record
out) signal of your mixer to the computer. You can use almost any
dedicated Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software to record the
signal from the CELEUS mixer. You can also set the mixer as your
default audio device.
The USB interface also returns the audio signal from your computer
back to the Tape In / USB mix, the signal of which is controlled by
the Tape In / USB Play control. If there are input signals from both
the USB interface and the Tape In, the two signals are combined
and controlled simultaneously by the Tape In / USB Play control.

device, you can simply enter your DAW or other audio program
and select it as your default device in the program only.
