1010music Blackbox Sampling Studio gets Major Update
1010music shared this video introduction to their Blackbox v3.0, a major update to their compact sampling studio that they say is “a significant step forward for sequencing, songwriting, and arrangement.”
New in Blackbox 3.0:
- Each of the 16 sequences now have 4 layers. You can sequence and switch between all 64 layers for more advanced songwriting.
- You can now double a sequence. Double will double the length and content. Double allows you to write in smaller sections and extend as needed.
- The new Song mode can have up to 32 song scenes per preset. Song scenes can control sequences, Clips, Slicers, Granular samples, and one-shots. Scenes can be looped within a song. Songs mode now has 2 loop modes. You can loop a single scene or the entire song. You can also trigger each scene individually using MIDI notes.
- MID-only sequences are now fully independent of internal Pads.
- MIDI routing has been redesigned. You now have more complete control over MIDI input and output. You can selectively route MIDI in, out, or thru the blackbox. You can enable or disable the USB Device port, and have total control over how clock + transport is sent and received. Find out full details on the 1010music website.
