Just ordered mine! Amazing Eurorack module, this can be a hardcore sampler, maybe uses as center piece for a drum synth , anything is possible now! Love the ability to change what firmware is installed and what the module can do, Please 1010Music never lose that ability to change the module as needed. Looking forward to the sampler firmware upgrades and new FXBox features, Thanks for making this! Have a Great year!
Coming from Ableton Realm always missed a multiverse like this in combination with the bluebox , it shapes the way one can create and perform in all realms integrated into 1010Music Point Of view 😎 , plus its touch and with every update new realities unfold ...
is it possible to live record audio on the fly from an external source, then slice and loop this audio pretty quickly inside one clip? Ideal situation would to be able to sample audio into a Slicer on the fly and then CV control the play back and gate sequence. I want to use this module as a live looper to sample, mangle and gate incoming audio on the fly.
I find it hard to understand why you've made this unit, with less output options then on the mini? You can choose what you want the sockets to do on the mini. I assumed this is bound to have more output options and was sold on the unit until I realised it only has L/R? Why? For me it's a deal breaker, I like everything else about this sampler and am a fan of 1010's products and was hoping for a more flexible alt to the squid salmple and the mini.
Th Bitbox Mk2 is an update to the Bitbox Mk1. Bitbox Micro was released at the same time as the Mk2 as a response to many asking for a smaller footprint. The Mk2 (and Mk1) features 2 stereo / 4 mono outputs.
@@1010music It's been a while since I've checked out the fxbox so I don't remember everything but recording movements on a XY touchpad and looping them is awesome for fx! Just sayin. ;) The Electribe 2, KP3+, and LZX Escher Sketch work this way!
Can I record CV and then use the device as a CV sequencer with time stretch to follow clock (tempo) changes ? If so, how many output CV channels could be used at the same time ?
The module is DC coupled. So yes, you can record CV and do some time stretching. You have four assignable outputs. You could dedicate them all to CV if you wanted.
I love this overview, but it's a little on the selling side, I wish you'd make the videos "Loopop" does yourselves, kind of a video manual. Anyways, Loopop and you probably convinced me to not send the module back and use it for sampling and playing / mangling my modular and Ableton loops for live performances. Thank you for the good engineering! As for the example play, I often find engineers to give examples that are not very musical, this could be a task for an artist, that uses your gear to actually perform one of his tracks on your gear. This is supposed to be feedback, not criticism.
Thanks for the feedback. Loopop does do a tremendous job and already covered this module. Our goal is to try and offer something different. Thanks for watching.
@@1010music no problem, thanks just want to know before I buy it :-) by the way, can the blackbox replace the multipart looper functionality of the akai force in this fun little package? I need to build loops on the fly from external gear and also use some sample pads as a chromatic sampler controlled by an external controller - didn't see any examples in your videos
@@SynthAddict I haven't used the Akai Force. blackbox can capture loops on the fly and play them back in sync. You may want to check out Loopop's video or read the manual at 1010music.com
@@1010music thanks, couldn't wait and already ordered it - I already found loopop's video and also RIcky TInez - you need to buy them a drink at least for all the sales they will generate :-) please watch those videos for their suggestions for future firmware updates please
I would just like to take a moment to appreciate the sick beats Steve dropped in this video! Mine is on the way! You sold me man!
I appreciate that!
One day i will stop drooling over this thing, close my eyes, and hit "buy now" 😄 This thing and the mixer you guys made are just so incredible!
Absolutely love mine. It’s so intuitive to use. I was making solid sounding music minutes after putting it in the rack.
I've been looking into it, seems like the way.
Just ordered mine!

This will sooooo go into my second case (next year)
Have one on order, can't wait.
Did I understand you correctly when you say that this can do the same multi sampling that the mk 2 can? With different layers for velocity?
No limit. Blackbox can respond to MIDI PGM Change.
a wonderful module, but what kind of module is that to the left? a sequencer?
It is our (now discontinued) Toolbox

is it playable with a midi keyboard or korg padkontrol?
Absolutely!
Is mk1 can as the MK2 saves a .als file with every presets ?
is the time stretching fixed yet?
saves .als files too?? what better way to experience both universes simultaneously ! future of Music already here ..
Does it have clock reset input ?
We do not use a 'reset' command. Our devices will automatically reset after 2 sec without incoming clock.
Fxbox mk2 on the way? I like the idea of a Korg kp3+ in modular form.
We do have plans to release fxbox and synthbox to the mk2 platform.

A little playlist management is in order on this channel ☺️

So, what do i do with my bitbox Mk1 now?
Upgrade to 3.0 firmware, which contains lots of new features
