If you are on the WAV Load and Record screen, touch
Load
in the top menu bar. If you are on the
Waveform screen, touch the name of the WAV file at the top of the screen (

in the example).
You will now be on the WAV File Selection screen.

From the WAV file selection screen, use the control knobs to scroll through the list of files. Blackbox displays
the directories at the top of the list followed by the individual files in alphabetical order. The selected file or
directory name has a blue highlight. Touch
Play
to preview the highlighted file. The
Play
button will turn blue
to show that auto-preview is enabled. Blackbox will play each WAV file once when you pause on it while
scrolling. If you have a sequence or a MIDI input trigger playing for this pad, blackbox will play the
selected WAV file whenever a trigger is received for this pad. Touch the
Play
button again to disable auto-
preview mode. Touch
Load
to assign the selected WAV file to this pad. When looking at the list of files, list
items that start with a slash
\
are directories. Load a directory to see its contents. The file path is displayed
above the list of files (e.g.
SoundtrackLoops\SL Bass Mu
in the example above.) Touch the caret
^
to navigate
back up the directory tree. Touch the back arrow to go back to the previous screen.
Note:
•
There may be considerable differences in volume levels of WAV files depending on how they were
originally recorded. Be careful when previewing the WAVs on the load screen or you could get a rude
surprise if you switch between soft and loud WAV files.
Once you have loaded a WAV file, you will be on the Waveform screen. There are a number of important features
on the Waveform screen. The grid icon in the top left of the screen, immediately below the clock counter, provides
a graphical representation of which pad in the grid you are configuring. You can touch it to bring up a pad
selection grid. Touch a square in the grid to change which pad you are working with. The icon just to the right of
that is a button that allows you to select the Pad Mode. The text in the top bar displays the first characters of the
name of the loaded WAV file, and can be touched to choose a different file. Trigger playback by touching the
arrow button on the right.
There are two views of the waveform displayed on the screen. The top view always displays the full waveform with
a blue square indicating the subsection of the waveform that is displayed in the bottom, bigger waveform. You
can use pinch and stretch touchscreen gestures to zoom in and out of the waveform, then swipe to scroll along the
length of the waveform. You can quickly jump to a different section of a long waveform by touching that section of
the wave in the top view.
If the pad is in Sample or Granular mode, the bottom waveform shows a pink bracket that indicates the portion of
the WAV file that will be played by this pad. Turn the top left knob to adjust the start position, and the top right
knob to adjust the length. If this pad uses looping, a white bracket is displayed to show the loop points. Turn the
bottom two knobs to adjust the loop start and loop end points.
If the pad is a Slicer you will see pink bars that indicate the position of the slices. If a wav has slices embedded in it,
you may also see slices when the pad is in Clip mode.
