Sampler
Your Woovebox includes a powerful sampler. It is able to sample sounds via its line input, import samples via Bluetooth or resample its own internal synthesizer. It even supports advanced features like multi-sampled instruments, slices (including auto-slicing), pitch shifting, time stretching and automatic tempo-to-pitch matching.
You may add samples recorded in WAV format, via Wooveconnect, by simply dragging and dropping them into your wirelessly connected device. You may also import Teenage Engineering OP-1 / OP-Z sample ("drum") kit AIFF files.
Hold the value knob and short-press 14/A6/Sampler button to access the sampler. If needed, repeat this until you are in sampler ("SMPL") mode and not, for example, in resampler mode ("rSMP").
Hold the Value knob and short-press 14/A6/Sampler button to access the sampler. If needed, repeat this until you are in resampler ("rSMP") mode and not, for example, in sampler mode ("SMPL").
Hold the Value knob and short-press 14/A6/Sampler button to access the sampler. If needed, repeat this until you are in vocoder ("VCdr") mode.
When you import a sample into a kit, it is appended to any existing sample for that kit to become one new long "master" sample.
Your Woovebox can auto-slice a bigger slice into smaller slices for you.
Slices can be pitch shifted and time stretched in real-time, with a sound that is reminiscent of early samplers by AKAI, such as the S950 and S1000.
The Amen break is a seminal six-second drum solo that originated from the song "Amen, Brother" by the 1960s funk and soul group The Winstons. This iconic drum pattern, played by Gregory Coleman, has left an indelible mark on music history, particularly within the realms of electronic music, hip-hop, and jungle.
The Woovebox sampler supports multi-sampled instruments.
Your Woovebox' sampler is surprisingly versatile in the way it allows you to incorporate samples into your songs - from seamlessly integrating as custom oscillators, to playing back multi-sampled instruments or tempo-corrected drumloops.
Kristoffer Ekstrand, aka Adventure Kid, a Swedish artist, has made available a massive library of single-cycle waveforms.
The Commodore Amiga has had an enormous influence on electronic music.
Your Woovebox is partially compatible with Teenage Engineering OP-1 / OP-Z sample kit (aka "drum kit") AIFF files. Such kits can be found from different sources such as the OP1.FUN website, the SoundPacks.com website and others.
To back up your sample kit, in the sampler, select your kit US.01-US.16 (hold play, and press 1-16). Then select and action "duMP Kit" from the context menu.
Slices also inform your Woovebox about what part of the master sample should be retained; if part of a master sample is not used in any of the slices, it is automatically deleted to free up sample memory once you exit Sampler mode or if you switch between sampler modes (e.g switching from sampler to the resampler or vocoder, etc.).
The following limitations currently apply to the Woovebox sampler;
