Bluetooth Wireless Technology - RemoteMix 4 will first attempt to connect in hands free mode to a cell phone. If this type of connection is not available, it will connect to any other product, such as a notebook or portable that allows a Bluetooth wireless connection. This wireless headphone mode offers a full audio bandwidth stereo connection.  Convenient 3.5 mm send and receive jacks for recording the show, or mixing in your MP3 player. Separate headphone level and source selection controls. Monitor just the clean mixer output, or the communication return plus the mix.< /p> < p>Power Smart Design - Phantom power is not always needed, yet it can be a real drain on batteries. The phantom power generator only runs if any of the rear panel 48 V switches are set to "ON" position.  Low noise, low power ICs are used throughout to preserve battery life.  The 100-240 VAC desktop style power supply (included) overrides the battery power only when the supply is actually providing power. If the power goes out, the batteries automatically cut in. Use one battery or two. Separate compartments for hot swapping batteries.
