1010 Music Blackbox Compact Sampling Studio

The Blackbox puts an entire music production studio in the palm of your hand, combining sampling, sequencing, and performance capabilities in one compact groovebox. This portable powerhouse lets you record, save, load, and edit one-shot samples and beat-sliced loops with professional-grade effects processing. Create sequences by tapping pads, playing the virtual keyboard, connecting external MIDI controllers, or drawing notes directly into the Piano Roll editor via the responsive touchscreen interface.

Record hours of audio from your synths, drum machines, and other studio gear, then arrange sequences using the built-in synchronisation and slicing tools. Structure your sequences into complete songs, add stereo effects, and save everything as presets for instant recall. The intuitive workflow makes it simple to build full compositions from initial idea to finished track.

Built for both studio work and live performance, the Blackbox’s rock-solid, nearly indestructible design means you can take your music creation anywhere. Trigger samples on the fly during live sets, perform complete compositions, or simply throw it in your backpack for impromptu sessions at the club or wherever inspiration strikes.
