Blackbox User Manual 1.7
QUICK START
Blackbox comes with a number of presets on the included microSD card. Let’s explore
one to see how blackbox works. We will dive into more detail later. We will start by loading
a preset:
1.
Push the white
PSET
button to see the preset loader screen.
2.
Turn any knob to scroll through the list of presets until you have
SL BASS MUSIC
KIT
highlighted in blue.
3.
Touch the
Load
button at the top of the screen to load the preset and go to the
PADS
screen. If this preset is already loaded, the
Load
button will be disabled.
Explore PADS
Touch the
PADS
button to go to the Pads screen with a grid of 16 WAV files. Touch a pad
to trigger it. Depending on how the pad is configured, the sample might play all the way
through each time you press it, it might play only while you are touching the pad, or it
might play until you touch it again. A blue progress bar appears at the bottom of the pad
while it is playing. You can trigger multiple sample pads at once.
The pink box indicates which pad is currently selected. Use the touch screen or a knob to
select a pad. Push
INFO
to cycle between the WAV screen and the parameters screens for
the selected pad. Touch the page names at the bottom of the parameters screen to
access additional parameter pages. Touch the name of the WAV file at the top of the
waveform screen to select a different WAV file for this pad. Touch the grid icon in the top
left corner to select a different pad to edit. The colored square in the grid indicates the
selected pad.
While on the Pads screen, turn the lower right knob to access the Clipboard menu, where
you can cut, copy, paste and clear pads. Turn the knob the other way to bring back the
Velocity slider.
