Bowers & Wilkins FORMATION BASS Manual De Instrucciones página 5

3. Using Your Formation Bass
The Basics
Once installed and configured, your Formation
bass will operate entirely automatically. The only
adjustment you may need to make is of subwoofer
volume relative to the partnered Formation speaker.
This will depend on personal preferences and the
acoustic character of you listening room. To adjust
Formation Bass volume, open the Bowers & Wilkins
Formation app and tap on the settings icon to open
the Settings menu. Now tap on the 'Formation Bass'
to open its settings page and use the volume slider
to make adjustments.
Note: Please remember that your Formation Bass
subwoofer is capable of low frequency volume
levels that have the potential to cause nuisance. If
in any doubt, reduce the volume.
Spaces
Spaces are a core concept of the Formation product
family. A Formation "space" is a room or a specific
area in your home in which you listen to music.
Each space can include different combinations of
Formation products. The possible configurations are
displayed in Diagram 3

The illuminations are displayed in Diagram 4.
4. The Bowers & Wilkins Home App
With your Formation Bass configured and connected
to your network, the Bowers & Wilkins Home app will
open to its Home screen where the Formation Bass
space and any other available Formation spaces will
be listed.
Tap on a Formation space to select from any
available streams or inputs. If there are no streams
available, open a streaming app, Spotify for example,
and select an item to play, then select the Formation
Space from the list of available playback devices.
Now, when you return to the Bowers & Wilkins
Home app, the Spotify stream will be listed on the
Formation Bass space page.
The Bowers & Wilkins Home app Home page has
a Settings icon in the top right corner. Tap the
icon to open the app Settings menu. The Settings
menu provides options to configure and reset your
Formation devices and re-name your Formation
spaces. App and Formation device firmware updates
are also initiated from the Settings menu.
Finding Your Way Around the
Bowers & Wilkins Home App
The Bowers & Wilkins Home app will search for
available Formation spaces when opened then
display its Home page with the spaces listed.
Beneath each space the app will display its current
activity. Tapping on an active space will open a "now
playing" screen that enables volume and play/pause
control.
The 'now playing' screen also provides an 'Available
Spaces' option that enables the stream playing in
the selected space to be transferred to another
space or played in multiple spaces. The 'Available
Spaces' screen also provides the opportunity to
control volume, both globally across all spaces, or in
individual spaces.
