Portable, powerful, and surprisingly deep. The Blackbox is one of the best DAWless sampling workflows available in a compact format. Great for live performance, sequencing external gear, sample mangling, loop launching, multisampling synths, or building complete tracks away from the computer.
Features include:
* Touchscreen-based sampling and sequencing workflow
* Real-time recording, slicing, looping, and resampling
* Song mode and pattern sequencing
* Granular playback and multisample instrument support
* MIDI and USB integration with external gear - do not power via USB from the same device that you run the audio through. This creates a ground loop which has an audible hum or buzz
* Streams long WAV files directly from microSD
* Multiple stereo outputs plus headphone out
* Extremely compact and travel-friendly footprint - I've brought it on several flights
This unit works exactly as it should and has been well cared for. Ideal for electronic musicians, live performers, modular users, and anyone building a portable DAWless setup.
Includes:
* Original power supply/cable
* Original content microSD card
* MIDI adapter -
*Original Packaging and quick start guide
Firmware 3.1.2 updates added major functionality including advanced multisampling, expanded MIDI control, probability sequencing, and improved workflow features.
The Blackbox has a strong reputation for fast workflow, portability, and flexibility in modern hardware setups.
