I like the speakers, but I hate the app. It does not work for a blind person with voiceover on an iPhone very poorly developed. You guys need to fix this with VoiceOver and fix the Accessibility features please
Alto TS112C fail
This app fails to remotely control the sound settings (as described in the manual for Alto TS112C).
Room for Improvement
When connected to the box, it doesn't sync: The app doesn't show the current state of the box. You have to operate ALL the controls once (on the app or the box) to be sure that the app shows the state of the box! (I don't know about the EQ settings, they can only be changed via the app)
The image on the volume screen is annoying, without it you would have the controls and the three controls on one screen, so you have to scroll unnecessarily The sliders are very difficult to use: you have to hit the points exactly. Especially when they're into Max, it's even harder. In the stress of performances, this is an unnecessary nerve factor. And why are there partly sliders, partly rotary controls (which, however, also have to be operated as sliders...)?
If you change the app, for example to Spotify, and back again, you have to click through the menu again to get to the screen you left.
I think point 4.6 in the manual "Busker_-_User_Guide_-_v1.4" has an error: You should connect the mobile phone as described in "Pairing a Bluetooth Device". However, this is combined for streaming, e.g. from Spotify. To connect to the app, you have to do it from within the app, the streaming connection is not necessary! But if you look at the connected devices on your phone, you can see TWO, "Alto Busker" – for streaming, and "Alto Busker_BLE" – that's the app. And if you press the Bluetooth button on the box for 10 seconds, the streaming connection is disconnected, which calms the nerves during a performance, not that calls or anything land on the box.
On the other hand, it would be good if the EQ functionality was better described, especially the master EQ. At least I can't get the EQ curve shown in the manual. Not even saving and loading presets...

Rubbish
This is a total waste of time I’m just going to delete app
It should be set up as if you had a mixer in front of you knobs don’t turn as you touch them then goes to far

Ts 415 speakers
The speakers sound great but, with the app the Bluetooth cuts in and out very annoying, also while in Bluetooth mode, they will not play through the out XLR cable pier, subs, or any other speaker for that matter, which is very disappointing. I would not have purchased these speakers if I’ve known they were gonna have this problem. The app is very troublesome to keep working with each speaker. That’s when I restart. The Bluetooth does not hook up without re-pushing the Bluetooth button on the speaker the app does not have a button which is very frustrating if I have to walk over to the speaker to push the button every time the app needs updated a lot to make it worthy to use on stage. I would barely recommend it even to use in your own home As it’s not stable.

🙁
Please updated the app it’s stuck on scanning and searching my speaker device.
Perfect
Funzionirt perfect super App tolle Bedienung man muss sie nur richtig beninen.
Toujours aussi pourri
Dsp et EQ toujours inutilisable sur des 415 et 412
Please fix the app!! 🙏
I just got a new Alto Busker Mini and I love the speaker!! Just one problem… the app kinda sucks. The EQ setting interface is so clunky and I can’t seem to save/reload presets the way I want them. Also, it would be great if I could select different FX through the app.
Weak EQ
Alto Busker’ this would be a perfect speaker to take to the beach and crank up some music but the EQ wont let me
Adjust anything!!!! App needs. Work until then i will be returning the speaker to Amazon

I want to love these…but…
I have had a pair of these for about 6 mos now and at first, they were great. The app was lackluster and definitely needed updating. Once the update came out, I was suddenly thrust into a new app without notice, that happened during a gig. NOT COOL. So once that went through, I started having problems with my speakers (not being fully on? ) I’ve had to start pushing the speaker to overload to get it to “work” fully. It starts out like I’m in a can, then I push the load with full volume and loud noise, then it comes on with full range and sounds great.
Not sure why this is happening. It started after the new app update. When they work, they’re great.
When they don’t - 😡😡
The EQ NEEDS HIGH/low shelf for 1 and 6 bands. But at this point, the problem is moot, as I’ve stopped using the app anyway. Maybe someone from the company will read this and contact me with some trouble shooting to help me fall back in love with these speakers AND the idea of these speakers. (I’m a professional musician and use these speakers daily. I bought them for a battery powered option to use for beach weddings and the like but they failed to live up to my expectations on the beach for my needs yesterday). DISAPPOINTED.

App completely changed
Updated App looks completely different to what you see here, this is the older version, particularly the EQ. When you set the EQ curve on the older version you could see the curve and load it to the speaker, now when you set a preset you have to go back a step before you can load it and even then I’m not convinced it loads successfully. It’s made using the Alto Busker more difficult and is a major glitch which needs fixing!!

Impossible to use!
Doesn’t work on iPhone w/ iOS 16, 17, or 18.
Will have to return speakers (TX412).

Custom EQ interface needs improvement
When dialling in a custom EQ settings, in particular, the center frequency slider, it would be great to be able to type in a value rather than use the slider to allow for pin point accuracy. That shouldn’t take too much development I wouldn’t have thought.
Manque juste une fonctionnalité essentielle
Application utilisée avec une enceinte Uber FX 2. Pratique pour effectuer des réglages (volume par canal, equaliseur, reverb, etc.) à distance. Il manque cependant une fonctionnalité essentielle qui serait d’envoyer « en bloc » à l’enceinte tous les réglages mémorisés dans l’appli, soit automatiquement au lancement, soit par un bouton dédié. Dans la version actuelle, l’enceinte s’allume avec ses réglages par défaut, et lorsqu’on utilise l’application, la dernière position de tous les curseurs y est mémorisée, mais il faut aller les modifier un par un pour qu’ils soient transmis à l’enceinte, ce qui est très fastidieux. D’autre part, les curseurs de volume n’affichent pas leur valeur (de 0 à 10) dans l’application, il faut les deviner au jugé d’après la position du curseur (la valeur s’affiche aussi sur l’enceinte, mais seulement après la modification), ce qui n’est pas non plus très pratique…

une belle enceinte, inaccessible
"En tant qu'utilisateur non-voyant de l'enceinte Alto Busker, je suis extrêmement déçu et frustré par le manque total d'accessibilité de l'application "Alto Pro" sur iOS. Les boutons ne sont absolument pas labellisés, rendant l'application complètement inutilisable pour les personnes ayant une déficience visuelle.
De plus, l'absence de marquage distinctif sur les boutons physiques de l'enceinte elle-même aggrave considérablement le problème. Il est impossible pour moi de régler mon enceinte de manière autonome, que ce soit via l'application ou directement sur l'appareil.
Je trouve cela profondément regrettable et discriminatoire qu'une marque comme Alto Professional ne prenne pas en compte les besoins d'une partie de sa clientèle. L'accessibilité numérique est une nécessité, pas un luxe, et il est inacceptable qu'une application de contrôle d'appareil audio soit conçue sans aucune considération pour les utilisateurs non-voyants.
J'espère vivement que mon avis suscitera une prise de conscience et incitera Alto Professional à rendre son application et ses produits véritablement accessibles à tous. En l'état actuel, cette enceinte, malgré ses qualités sonores potentielles, est inutilisable pour moi. J'espère une mise à jour rapide et significative pour corriger ce grave manquement."

Average app, more to desire
Connection seems to be ok reliable, but many things/feature to desire. Some things I absolutely DON’T like-
Custom EQ - you cannot tell what last custom EQ was used/uploaded on the speaker. Only can guess or keep upload cause I can’t tell.
Color speaker label - why use color, simply text label is much more efficient, now I have to remember the color as another layer of memory unless I color my speakers.
EQ frequency settings - like other reviewer said, frequency setting is hard to make change, no number input, slide bar is hard to use.
Overall app - simple as basic features only, app navigation is just ok, some basic things are missing, could be better.

Ne fonctionne pas avec mon alto busker
Je peux diffuser de la musique mais pas régler l’enceinte avec l’app. Dommage.
TS48 lacking mix fixture
Not able to mix channel one and two on the app, what a stupid oversight!!!
App löscht alle Geräte und setups die man erstellt hat.
Die Boxen sind nicht gerade günstig und wir haben ein System von Alto von über 3000€ hier stehen und dann funktioniert nichtmal die App richtig, echt traurig.
Die Boxen werden permanent aus der App gelöscht und die verdienen setups die man eingestellt und gespeichert hat verschwinden einfach…
