Expressive Wavetable Synthesis that Fits in Your Pocket

The 1010music Nanobox Fireball synthesizer module combines polyphonic wavetable synthesis with touchscreen X/Y control in a fun and functional portable format. You have all the connectivity you need to interface with your MIDI controllers, sequencers, and DAW software. You can use the professionally developed WAV files as your starting point, or load your own WAV files via microSD card to create your own signature synth sounds. Either way, you’ll be able to generate complex pads, growling basses, animated soundscapes, and much more. For a fresh take on wavetable synthesis that’s easily approachable, the 1010music Nanobox Fireball is red hot.

Powerful synth engine

Don't let its compact format fool you: the 1010music Nanobox Fireball boasts an impressive and flexible synth engine. You can simultaneously engage two wavetable oscillators plus an additional oscillator, with 8-voice polyphony; you can also shape your sounds with two filters, two envelopes, two LFOs, and one modulation sequencer. For final polish, tap into six built-in effects: flanger, distortion, chorus, phaser, delay, and reverb. What’s more, the Nanobox Fireball is easy to navigate and control from the front panel, and its touchscreen can be used as an X/Y pad to manipulate your sounds on the fly.

Ready to fit your workflow

While its rugged, portable nature makes it perfect for creative sound-design sessions practically anywhere, Sweetwater musicians love that the Nanobox Fireball offers comprehensive connectivity for studio applications. MIDI In and Out are supported via mini TRS connections, as well as connectivity for line-level audio in and out — a clock input is also available for synchronizing with analog clock signals, too.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Great Little Synth

Watched a few reviews online when the Nanobox modules were announced.
They both appeared to be impressive in their functionality and I knew I had to get one.
The presets are good and seem to show off how use that functionality, having them on and using a microSD card (included!) a great design.
I also like the included effects and with a good pair of headphones they sound fantastic.

I decided on the Fireball and when my unit arrived, I was not disappointed!
So many features crammed into this AMAZING little box, and I LOVE that touchscreen and the fact only a couple of encoders & buttons are needed for the user interface.

Some people might think it is too small, but for myself, I wanted a VERY portable polyphonic synth that literally fits in a pocket.
At this point I have not connected up to anything other than my Novation LK Mini Mk3 controller & headphones which make for a perfect combo.
Both run off a small USB battery stick and allow me to take anywhere with ease.

Bottom line - I love it and have a feeling I'll be picking up it's Lemon Drop partner as soon as I can afford it!
Rated 5/5

Amazing, little, powerful, intuitive.

I don't write reviews as a rule, but I love this enough to make an exception. I'm a bassist who was looking for a small midi synth unit to control with my bass pedals for live use. I'm not a sound designer or synth programmer, so I wanted something intuitive where I could do some basic filter and envelope tweaks from the console, and the Fireball delivers. I didn't know what wavetable synthesis was prior to my purchase, but it was pretty easy to learn. I'd even go so far as to say that if you watch Sweetwater's demo video on this, you probably don't even need to read the manual to get going. It's so intuitive that if you know the very basics of synthesis, you're good to go. Just know that wavetables add one more dimension to control over a basic wave shape. For example, you can morph between a pure sine and a filtered square wave, if that is what is written into the wavetable file. I love that feature. I also love the form factor. This thing is small! I'd love to see a sampler version in the same form factor that could play loops and samples for live shows.
Rated 4/5

No program change...

I love this thing, but folks have been asking for over a year for MIDI program change, which really should have been there from the start. It's necessary for live performance. I wish I didn't have to return it, but that's a dealbreaker for me.

Otherwise it's a great little synth for adding some interesting sounds to your setup. If you don't play live it would be nice, but I already have several wavetable VSTs in the studio setting.
