The battery-powered Alto Busker is an excellent choice for playing music, speaking, and singing anytime, anywhere. The active all-in-one PA speaker is equipped with a three-channel mixer, various DSP modes, Bluetooth streaming from mobile devices, and True Wireless Stereo for connection to a second Busker. Users have the ability to connect a microphone and instrument or two line-level sources simultaneously, while optimising the sound using the built-in Alesis effects processor. Additionally, the free Alto app for iOS and Android allows the system to be set up quickly by loading previously created DSP configurations.
The Alto Busker is a versatile companion for small to medium-sized events and a great solution for anyone who wants to perform on the go, make themselves heard at a conference, or organise an outdoor party. The compact Bluetooth PA is quickly ready for use anywhere and delivers a top-notch sound. If there is no power socket available at the location, the rechargeable lithium-ion battery will keep the Busker in operation for up to 24 hours in eco mode and up to 20 hours in standard mode. The battery takes 12 hours to fully charge.
The Alto Busker is equipped with different DSP modes for use as a monitor speaker, practice amplifier or stage system. With its versatile design, it can be set up horizontally, vertically as well as on a standard speaker stand. The integrated 3-channel mixer with built-in Alesis FX processing offers users comprehensive options to tweak the sound to their preferences. The third channel is equipped with Bluetooth and an AUX input for streaming backing tracks from a smartphone or connecting other non-bluetooth sound sources. And thanks to the compact housing with an integrated carrying handle, the 5.4kg Busker is easy to transport.
