Tracks

Your Woovebox allows you to work with 16 tracks per song. A track plays a single instrument (for example a bass or synthesizer lead) or a "kit" (for example a drum kit, or a number of pre-defined vocal chant samples, etc.).

With one exception, all tracks are monophonic (meaning they can only sound one note at a time) or paraphonic (meaning they can sound multiple notes at a time, starting at the same time). The one exception is the chord ("Cd") track. It is the only track that is 5-voice polyphonic, allowing for complex chords. The 16 tracks of your Woovebox are designated;

  1. "Cd" / "chord"; must be used for chord progressions, and is the only track that is 5-voice polyphonic
  2. "bs" / "bass"; suggested use for basslines
  3. "Ld" / "lead"; suggested use for lead melodies
  4. "Ar" / "arpeggio"; suggested use for arpeggios
  5. "Ki" / "kick"; suggested use for synthesized kickdrums
  6. "Sn" / "snare"; suggested use for synthesized snares
  7. "hh" / "hi-hat"; suggested use for synthesized hi-hats
  8. "Pc" / "percussion"; suggested use for general percussion such as a crash cymbal or synthesized clap
  9. "A1" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 1"; anything extra you might need in your song
  10. "A2" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 2"; anything extra you might need in your song
  11. "A3" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 3"; anything extra you might need in your song
  12. "A4" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 4"; anything extra you might need in your song
  13. "A5" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 5"; anything extra you might need in your song
  14. "A6" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 6"; anything extra you might need in your song
  15. "A7" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 7"; anything extra you might need in your song
  16. "A8" / "all-purpose/auxiliary 8"; anything extra you might need in your song

With the exception of the Cd track, all tracks are interchangeable and their behavior or role in your song can be re-assigned. Or in other words, the designations for all tracks (except Cd) are merely "serving suggestions"; you do not have to put a hi-hat on the hh track if you don't want to, and you can reconfigure the track's behavior if needed. So, if you wish, you can put a bass or arpeggio on the hh track instead. You can have fifteen sample kits, or fifteen snares if you so desire.

Tracks may further be configured to play real-time synthesized sounds, play samples, modify incoming audio, modify the delay buffers, or may be silent altogether (for example when driving other external music gear through MIDI).
