It supports up to eight stereo sample pads per preset, allowing playback of either large samples streamed from the microSD card or multiple polyphonic notes from internal memory. Integration into your modular setup is seamless with CV, gate, and MIDI inputs, and its stereo and mono audio outputs offer flexible routing. Whether you’re working in a studio environment or taking your setup on the road, the Bitbox Micro delivers a comprehensive sampling experience. Record directly into the unit, apply effects, fine tune playback parameters, and save your configurations with ease. Bitbox Micro is a full-featured sampler that fits in the palm of your hand.
Key Features:
- Compact and Capable:
A full-featured sampler in only 18 HP, with touch screen control and deep editing capabilities that rival larger systems. - Versatile Sampling Modes:
Supports five playback modes including clips, slicer and granular, offering creative possibilities for looping, sequencing, and live sound manipulation. - Flexible Control and Routing:
CV, gate and MIDI support, with assignable inputs and multiple stereo and mono outputs, ensuring seamless integration into any Eurorack system.
Performance Ready Sampling:
Bitbox Micro enables a variety of sample playback options ideal for live or studio use. You can trigger one shots, sync loops to tempo, or use granular processing for experimental textures. Up to eight stereo sample pads can be customised for each preset, and users can store configurations for quick access between sets. With the ability to stream hours of audio from the microSD card or play from internal memory, it delivers flexibility regardless of sample size. Touch screen operation makes interaction intuitive, even in the middle of a performance.
Powerful Recording Tools:
Bitbox Micro makes sampling straightforward, with stereo audio inputs for direct recording from your Eurorack system. Recording can be triggered by audio threshold, MIDI, or CV, and you can set loop lengths or sync to clock inputs. Resampling from the master output and auto-creating multi sample banks offers extended functionality. Recorded files are saved in WAV format on a microSD card, allowing for easy transfer to and from a computer. With up to four hours of continuous recording per file, Bitbox Micro is a serious tool for capturing and creating sounds.
Creative Modulation and Integration:
Bitbox Micro offers extensive control options for integrating with external gear. With support for MIDI notes, CV and gate inputs, and a clock input, you can tailor how and when samples are triggered or modulated. The module supports both TRS MIDI Type A and Type B, no adapter required. Modulate pitch, grain size, ADSR and more using MIDI CCs or CV signals. Learn mode makes MIDI mapping simple. Whether you are sequencing from a DAW, hardware controller or modular source, the Bitbox Micro provides tight timing and expressive control.
