Bonus tip, if you set the note length of the HH to 0, you get your basic closed hat and use a 2 length for your open HH :). Also great video, wish I watched something like this when I started :)
I appreciate the beginner style videos, as I'm still very much a newbie. I learn something new every video, and often find myself re-watching these videos to remember all the tips.
@@FreeBeat It's a great little device! I've had it since late last year and still feel like I've just scratched the surface, and he keeps adding new functionality! haha I've mostly used to create beats and bass lines to play my keyboard along with. I will say, the one thing I would change is the screen. I find I don't remember what certain abbreviations mean and have to look it up on the manual somewhat regularly. It would be nice to have something more easily readable. Nothing fancy, but maybe like a small OLED would make navigating easier.
I just got my woovebox and I love it but my settings keep not saving, I read on the website there is auto save but the only time I can get settings to save is hitting play to stop the music and hitting play to start it again. Is something I'm doing wrong?
The Woovebox and Smpltrek are probably the two i am most seriously considering picking up to mate with my Roland s1. I've pondered the model cycles and the aira drum machine, but its a lot to ponder without having hands on all of them. Anyone have advice for properly pondering these options?
It really depends on what you want your workflow to be? Are you looking to just jam, or do you want to write songs and release music? I'd personally recommend the SmplTrek, since the S1 seems like a fantastic sample source, but the Woovebox or Model:Cycles could also act as sequencers for your S1 as well! It's all about what you want :)
Enter song mode by holding down the knob and pressing button 16. Once you're in song mode, you can change songs by holding down the play button and pressing buttons 1 through 16. To delete a song, in song mode, simply hold down the right button and click the knob until you see "init song," then long press the knob.

Glad to help! The Woovebox is deeeeeeep, but pretty simple to get started with. How are you liking it so far?

Thanks so much!
Very useful video. Mine is on its way 😜
I hope you love it! There's a lot to it and it can seem overwhelming at first, but if you start off with the basics everything will follow :)
Thank you for replying. I’m really looking forward to using it. It’s a device that really caught my attention.
Thanks for putting this together - now to get experimenting with random patches :D
Yeah the random patches are the best!
Thanks ‼️
Thanks for watching!
Be interesting to see the Woovebox compares to Roland's P-6 :)
Hmmm, those are pretty different pieces of gear! How would you like to see them compared?
@@FreeBeat that's a sensible question to ask and strangely one I should have thought about asking more haha.

Hmmm, I'm not sure, I haven't had any issues like that. It might be worth posting on the Woovebox subreddit!

I got a good deal on a polyend tracker instead, and i'm enamored.

@@Gooch1911 Nice! That's a terrific partner for your S1, glad to hear you're loving it :)
Hello, i would like to know if you sell Freebeat tee-shirt or sweat shirt with your logo ?
Maybe! I've considered doing merch before but I'm not sure how many people would be interested haha.
@@FreeBeat ok thanks for your answer
How do you delete a song or go to a new song
Enter song mode by holding down the knob and pressing button 16. Once you're in song mode, you can change songs by holding down the play button and pressing buttons 1 through 16. To delete a song, in song mode, simply hold down the right button and click the knob until you see "init song," then long press the knob.
Great video, too late for me, bought an MPC one and sold my woovebox 😬
I hope you're loving your MPC!
