Would you mind sharing your working setup?
Mine is similar to yours, BS9000 Mk2 + BLC ML/NL + BL28 + BS2

I have tried the suggestions in this thread, but the B&O app keeps saying “play something on BeoSound9000 to add speakers to this group” (Beosound9000 is the name of th ML/NL)

Thanks

• Open the BLC setup
• Set ML role as ASlave
• Set Connect primary/secondary to the BLC
• In "Experience mapped to NL" check the source(s) CD, RADIO, AUX. Note: you can give the source another NL name over here, also.

with every step: confirm settings

option 1 (I'm presuming the BS2 has this feature):

• Open Settings in the B&o app
• goto Products; goto Configuration
• goto Setup; goto Beolink
• goto Link to other Products
• select the BLC to connect with in the primary connection
• confirm settings

(if the BS2 has this feature) Now the BLC sources are visible as sources of the BS2. Start the BS9000 CD on the BS2 and JOIN them on the BL28.

option 2 (will/should work always)

• In the B&o app choose the BLC
• click on the black taskbar the BLC name.
• Click the three dots and select the source you want to play.
• JOIN the BS2 and/or the BL28

Thanks a lot Carolpa. It works!!

I think I missed the radio and aux before, thinking that CD and N.Music was the only needed ones

Thanks Carolpa, I can confirm that option #1 works with the A9Mk2 too , but not with the Stage. So I think option #2 is actually a safer bet across the current product portfolio (as much as option #1 is WAAAAY cooler!)

Btw, I had my BLC in VMaster mode, didn't know it can be in ASlave too... so I am testing it now and apparently all works well. 👍

I don't think you'll have a purpose for the N.Music command in your setup.

option 1 should work with the first generation NL devices (Core, Essence mkii, BS35, A6, BV11, .....and A9mk2). I expected also the BS2 but I wasn't sure.

An added complication is that you bs9000 will be in A.Opt 0 with no speakers connected so you may need an it eye for your blc? I believe there is a dummy plug available to fool the bs9000 into thinking speakers are connected

As a matter of fact this is not a problem if you plan to start BS9000 playback through B&O app as Carolpa described couple of posts ago. Alternatively, Halo can do it too without a workaround needed.

Now, if you planned to use Beo 4 remote, then I can't help much (but I see others have some schematics provided already). 😁

ASlave is/was intended for connecting one audio ML device without speakers connected to the ML audio device.

On a side note!

That is the ‘kind of device’ that people nowadays could use, when they want to integrate e.g. a BS9000 with their NL/Mozart devices.

A new box with just that option would be great…….and would make sense to ‘relaunch’.

If they would make it wireless, it would be even greater.

All other functions of the NL/ML Converter are (for the majority) obsolete.
