WORKING WITH PADS
Each pad in bitbox micro can be assigned a WAV le or a folder of WAV les. You can
congure playback options, such as trigger mode and looping, individually for each pad.
Once a pad is loaded, you can touch the pad on the main Pads screen to trigger it. You
can also use the Keys screen to play the currently selected pad. When you trigger a pad
from the Keys screen, a pad with a single WAV le is pitch shifted to correspond to the
note played. Multi-sample pads play the WAV le with a root note closest to the played
note, with pitch shifting if needed. We’ll talk more about multi-samples later.
Steps Common to All Pad Modes
The tasks in this section apply to all pads, no matter which pad mode you select. The
rst task to create a new pad is to select the WAV le or les and then set the Pad
Mode.
To Select WAV Files and Assign Pad Modes:
Push HOME until you are on the Pads screen. This screen has two rows of 4 pads
each, for a total of 8 pads. A WAV le or folder of WAV les can be assigned to each of
these pads, and each pad is assigned a Pad Mode.
Bitbox micro supports the following pad modes:
