Blackbox 3.0 User Manual
Record New WAV Files
Blackbox comes with over 800 WAV files loaded on the microSD card and allows you to
load your own WAV files on the microSD card. You can also record new WAV files to create
your own custom sound. You can record a single WAV, or you can use MIDI or CV
automation to record an entire multi-sample bank.
To record a single WAV file
1.
Start by plugging an audio signal source
into the Audio In jack. This is a stereo
input.
2.
Push the PADS button to display the
sample bank.
3.
Touch a pad in the grid to select it. With
the pad selected, press the INFO button.
If the pad is empty, blackbox will display the Load and Record screen. If the pad
is already loaded, blackbox will display the Waveform screen. If you are on the
Waveform screen, press the Pad Mode icon to the left of the WAV file name at
the top of the screen and then touch New Recording. You will now see the Load
and Record screen.
4.
In the top menu, touch the button to the left of the Load button. This will display
the recording mode menu. Touch 1x to record a single file.
5.
At the top of the WAV File Load and Record Screen, you will see the level meters
for the two channels followed by a list of recording parameters. Turn one of the
top two knobs to select a parameter, and then turn one of the bottom two knobs
to select a value for that parameter. The table below shows the list of available
parameters for single WAV file recording.
Parameter
Description
Rec Input
Sets whether you are recording from only one
input, the stereo input pair, or re-sampling the
audio currently being generated to OUT1.
Gain
The VU meters represent the level of the signal
to be recorded. You can adjust the gain to get
the desired level and avoid clipping. For best
results leave some room (a few dB) between
your loudest level and the max allowed, which is
0dB. If a red bar appears to the right of the level,
the signal is clipping and the level of the input
signal should be lowered for best quality.
