The battery powered unit features Bluetooth music streaming, a full-featured 4-channel digital mixer and a control app for iOS and Android devices. An all-in-one, full-range stereo PA, FreePlay features a high-output 8-inch woofer, allows users to connect microphones, line or instrument level sources and features a four-channel digital mixer to control levels, EQ and more. It can also stream music from any smartphone, tablet or other Bluetooth capable device.

“FreePlay is perfect for everyone from musicians and singer/songwriters on the go, to educators, public speakers and even everyday music lovers,” remarked Matt Redmon, Mackie Senior Product Manager. “FreePlay delivers an amazing solution to all in an innovative, easy-to-use package.”

“The ability to incorporate a Bluetooth stream with live instruments sets FreePlay apart. Musicians are going to love being able to easily mix in backing tracks right from their mobile device,” commented Redmon. “And with hands-free music streaming, FreePlay is also an amazingly high-output music playback device perfect for parties, weddings and backyard BBQs.”

The wireless FreePlay Connect app puts the user in control of the unit – from simple level adjustments to control over professional performance features like a built-in feedback eliminator, application-specific speaker voicing modes and 16 vocal/instrument effects.

“FreePlay is the most versatile PA we’ve ever created. You get a powerful, portable PA with wireless music streaming, amazing professional sound tools and the ability to control it all from your phone,” added Redmon. “Plus, with battery power, you can literaly take FreePlay anywhere. We are excited to offer this level of sonic freedom.”

There is a choice of AC or battery power, including an optional rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack or standard D Cell batteries. There are also several optional accessories including a kickstand /pole mount accessory allowing it to be mounted on a standard speaker pole for increased coverage and can also be tilted back to a 45-degree angle for better monitoring when FreePlay is on the ground. An optional lithium-ion battery pack delivers up to 10 hours of playback and is rechargeable so users always have the power they need. There’s also a durable carry bag available to protect during transport and storage that includes handy pockets for mics, cables, etc.

FreePlay has a US. MSRP of $499.99. Available accessories include the FreePlay kickstand/pole mount accessory ($24.99 US MSRP), FreePlay rechargeable lithium-ion battery ($69.99 US MSRP) and FreePlay carry bag ($69.99 US MSRP).
