Blackbox User Manual 1.7
SET UP BLACKBOX
You have probably already plugged in your blackbox and started to play with it. Let’s
make sure you have everything set up properly so you can follow along with the manual.
Blackbox stores all of the samples and presets on the microSD card. Before you can use
the blackbox, you will need to insert the microSD card, connect to power and connect to
one or more outputs. You can then also connect an audio input for recording.
MicroSD Card for Storage
Take the microSD card out of it’s plastic case,
A
in the
figure to the right. Insert the microSD card, with the text
facing up and the notched edge to the right, into the
MICRO SD slot,
S,
on the front panel. The card reader is
spring loaded. Push the card in to remove it when
needed later. Leave it in for now.
Power
Blackbox needs to be connected to a 2 amp power
source. You can plug it into a standard power outlet or a
USB power supply. Either way, you will insert the square
end of the USB Power cord,
B
, into the POWER
connection on the back panel. The connection is snug to
ensure that the device stays plugged in during use.
Standard Power Outlet:
If you are plugging directly into a standard power outlet,
slide the appropriate two or three prong connector,
E
,
onto the USB power supply,
D
. Then connect the flatter
end of the USB power cord,
B
, into the USB connection
on the power supply. Bluebox will turn on as soon as the
power is connected.
USB Power Outlet:
If you are using your own USB power supply, plug the
flatter end of the USB power cord into a 2 amp USB
power supply, such as a USB outlet or a USB battery
