Connection types
With three channels and a variety of input types, you can connect a wide
range of instruments, microphones and other devices.
Above the CH1 and CH2 inputs is an input type selector. This adjusts the
balance of the connection. Here are some examples.

Ducking mode
The Ducking feature will reduce (duck) CH3's output when input from
CH1 or CH2 is detected.
To turn on, press the Ducking Control button once. The LED will be solid
blue. Press again to turn off.
Example: You may have a backing track playing on CH3 whilst using a
microphone on CH1. The ducking feature means audio playing on CH3
will reduce in volume slightly when you speak into the microphone -
giving your voice more space in the mix.
Indoor / Outdoor mode
There are two sound modes; Indoor and Outdoor. To switch between
modes, double tap the Ducking Control button (2x within 1 sec).
You can identify which mode SumoBox is in by observing the LED
indicator when the mode is changed:
Sound Mode
Ducking LED indicator
Indoor (default)
Blue - fast flash x4
Outdoor
Blue - slow flash x2
Indoor mode is suitable for when SumoBox is used indoors and is
optimised for sound quality.
Outdoor mode is suitable for when SumoBox is used outdoors.
When in Outdoor mode, the high and mid range frequencies are
boosted. This allows those frequencies to be better heard when in an
outdoor environment.
Bluetooth and Duo Mode
You can connect a Bluetooth enabled device to your SumoBox.
SumoBox can also connect to another SumoBox via Duo Mode - True
Wireless Stereo (TWS).
Duo Mode is a powerful feature which allows the Bluetooth audio source
to be sent to 2 SumoBoxes, one operating as the left stereo channel,
the other operating as the right stereo channel. The effect offers a more
powerful and immersive stereo sound stage.

the search mode. "SUMOBOX PRO CP-LS200" will appear on your
Bluetooth device list.

SumoBox when it has successfully connected.
3. To disconnect, press the Bluetooth / Duo Mode button once.
Alternatively, disconnect from the SumoBox on your Bluetooth
enabled device.
4. To reconnect the same device, press the Bluetooth / Duo Mode
button once on the SumoBox or connect via your Bluetooth enabled
