WELCOME
Bitbox micro by 1010music is a compact sampling module for eurorack. With bitbox
micro, you can record and play samples, then trigger them using MIDI and CV. Use
bitbox micro to record individual WAV les, or use Auto-sampling to easily create a
sample bank of your favorite MIDI or CV instrument. You can beat sync your clips to an
external clock or use slices to trigger portions of a WAV le. We will start with a quick
walk through of the basic features to get you started. Then we will go deep and cover all
of the features supported.. Find community, support, wish lists, and rmware updates on
our forum at https://forum.1010music.com.
Document Overview
In this manual, we will rst quickly make sure you have bitbox micro installed in your
eurorack and set up so you can make some sound with it. After that, we will review the
basic controls and screens. Next, we will walk through how to set up pads including a
description of each of the dierent pad modes. We will cover the Keys Input mode, how
to apply FX and how to adjust the mix. After that, we will cover presets and global
settings. That will be followed by discussion of how to use MIDI devices with bitbox
micro, along with some more advanced usage features. Lastly, we will delve into
managing bitbox micro rmware and les, touch on a couple of technical specs and
nally tell you where you can nd more information about bitbox micro and other
1010music products.
This manual was written for version 1.0.7 of the bitbox micro rmware. If you have an
older version, we strongly recommend that you upgrade. See UPDATE FIRMWARE,
AUDIO FILES AND PRESETS below to learn how to upgrade your rmware.

SET UP BITBOX MICRO IN YOUR EURORACK
Let’s get the module in your rack so you can try things out as we cover them here:
1. Insert the microSD card into the MICRO SD
slot, notched edge to the right.
2. Turn o your Eurorack and use the ribbon
cable to connect the module to power:
- The narrow connector attaches to the
module, with the red side of the cable on the
side of the header with a white bar.
- The wide connector attaches to the Eurorack
+12V power supply, with the red side of the
cable aligned with pin 1 or the -12V pins on the
power supply bus.
3. Mount the module into the rack and then power
it up.
After boot up, the bitbox micro displays the Pads screen with a grid of WAV les loaded
from one of the presets provided on the microSD card.
Connect Inputs and Outputs
Connect some basic signals to bitbox micro to get
started. This module has 8 input and 8 output jacks that
support the following connections:
■ Inputs 1 – 2: Gate, CV, Clock, Audio
■ Inputs 3 – 8: Gate, CV, Clock
■ Outputs 1 – 6: Assignable audio
■ Outputs 7 – 8: Master audio left and right
Connect Outputs 7 and 8 to speakers or headphones
through a mixer. To record audio, connect an audio signal
to Inputs 1 and 2.
A gate signal on an input can trigger the corresponding
pad. Connect a standard eurorack gate signal to input 3
to try this out.

Connect a MIDI controller to the MIDI In jack to trigger
pads and modulate parameters. Use the included Mini-
TRS to MIDI 5-PIN DIN adapter if needed. This TRS jack
supports both Mini-TRS type A and Mini-TRS Type B
connections.
Control the Volume
By default, the bitbox micro is congured to play at 80%
volume. Here’s how to adjust that if needed:
1. Touch Tools one time to display the Settings
screen.
2. Turn the top knob until the MasterVol
parameter is highlighted pink.
3. Turn the bottom knob to the desired value.
Test Your Setup
Now let’s see what the module sounds like.
1. Push the Home button until you see the Pads
screen.
2. Touch a pad to trigger playback. You should
hear the sample playing out through the
connected audio output. The pad you touched
will turn pink to show that it is selected. A blue
playback progress bar will grow across the
bottom of the pad as the WAV le play
progresses.
If you don’t hear anything, try touching a dierent pad. If you still don’t hear anything,
push Tools then Home to make sure you really are on the Pads screen. (It will say Pads
at the very top middle of the screen.) Then try touching a pad. Next, check your output
connections and your volume (See above.)

PRESETS
By now you are probably ready to start playing some music. We are going to cover that
next. First, let’s make sure you know how to save or undo your changes. Bitbox micro
stores your conguration work as Presets. A number of demonstration presets are
loaded on the micro SD card. Each preset holds a set of 8 pad congurations, along
with Mixer, FX, and Input settings. Note that Mute settings are not saved, and the global
Settings (the rst page when you push TOOLS) are saved on the SD Card apart from
the Presets.
Bitbox micro does not save changes automatically. You
have to save your preset to preserve your changes. If
you turn o the module, or change presets, any changes
you have made to the current preset will be lost.
To Save Changes to a Preset:
1. Touch the name of the preset at the top of the
Pads screen (SL Urban Rem Hip Hop in the
screen shot on the right) to display the Preset
Management screen. This screen shows a list
of the presets stored on the microSD card with
a menu across the top. The currently selected
preset is highlighted in blue.
2. Touch Save or touch File then Save As to save
changes. Save is disabled if there are no
unsaved changes. Save As will create a new
preset with the new name, and the old preset
will keep its original settings.
To Load a Preset:
1. Touch the name of the preset at the top of the
Pads screen to access the Preset
Management screen.
2. Turn a knob to select a preset, then touch Load
to make this the active preset.
Note:
► Bitbox micro does not automatically save your changes. Any unsaved changes
will be lost when you load a preset or power down the module.

PADS OVERVIEW
Pads are the onscreen cells that are used to load WAV les into Presets and to trigger
them. In this section, we will give an overview of the primary screens used when
working with Pads and how to navigate between them. In the next section, we will walk
through settings and tasks for all pads, followed by settings and tasks specic to each
pad mode. Finally, we will discuss how to record single WAV les and automate the
recording of a multi-sample bank.
The Pads Screen
When you rst turn on bitbox micro, the Pads screen is
displayed. If you move away from this screen, you can
get back here by pushing the white HOME button at the
top of the module.
The 8 squares in the bottom two rows of the screen are
the pads. Each pad displays an abbreviated name of the
WAV le or folder mapped to the pad. Each pad can be
mapped to one WAV le or a bank of WAV les. Touch a
pad to trigger it. This will also select it, as indicated by the
pink background. You can also use the knobs to select a
pad without triggering it. Depending on how the pad is
Pads Screen
congured, a triggered sample might play all the way through each time you press it, it
might play only while you are touching the pad, or it might play until you touch it again. A
blue progress bar appears at the bottom of the pad while it is playing. You can trigger
multiple pads at once. Push the Stop button in the top right corner of the screen to halt
playback of WAV les. A white bar at the bottom of a pad indicates the pad is ready to
start at the next quantization break.
The black bar along the top of the screen displays the playback clock and the current
screen name. The number pair on the left displays the overall playback time in
measures and beats.
The Keys button in the top left displays an onscreen keyboard where you can play the
notes by pitch shifting the currently selected pad. The text between the Keys and Stop
buttons is the name of the currently selected preset. Touch this to go to the Preset
Management screen where you can save, load and create new presets.

There is a series of buttons across the top of the
Waveform screen. The left button is the Pad Selector
Grid. We will talk about that soon. To the right of that, is
the Pad Mode Selector. Touch this button to display the
list of Pad Modes, then touch a pad mode to select it.
The text in the top row, A GrainSting in the screen shot of
the Wave Screen, is the name of the WAV le or directory
loaded into this pad. It may be shortened here. The

playback the WAV le. A white cursor will appear on the
screen to show the current play position, and the large
WAV display will scroll as the current play position moves
o screen.
The Waveform Screen
To congure a pad, touch the pad to select it, then push
the white right arrow button ► above the screen. This will
display the Waveform screen for this pad. There are two
versions of the WAV le displayed on the screen. The
large blue wave can zoom in or out using pinch and
stretch touch gestures. The shorter white wave shows the
entire WAV le. You can touch a spot in the white wave
Waveform Screen
display to change the current display area of the larger blue wave. This can be useful
when dealing with long WAV les.
As you turn the top knob, the text in the lower right corner shows you which parameter
you are controlling with the bottom knob. Turn the top knob to the left to select Start,
then turn the bottom knob to move the pink bracket that represents the audio playback
range for the WAV. Turn the top knob to the right to select Length, then turn the bottom
knob to adjust the width of the pink bracket and the length of the WAV le section that
will be played. If Looping is enabled, a white bracket will appear that represents the
looped range. Turning the top knob will now allow you to select Loop Start and Loop
End.

The Keys Screens
You will nd some new ways to play your samples on the
Keys screen. To start, please load the preset SO Bells &
Chimes that came loaded on the microSD card. Then, on
the Pads screen, select either of the pads named Bell
Rotos, and then push the KEYS button at the top of the
screen. Bitbox micro displays a piano style keyboard on
the screen. Touch some of the keys on the keyboard to
hear the selected pad play pitch shifted by note. You can
adjust which octave is playing by touching the arrow
buttons above the keyboard or by turning a knob. The C
keys are numbered so you can quickly identify which
octave will be playing.
Push the right arrow button above the screen to access
the Keys Grid screen. Use the two buttons in the top right
of the screen to select the Key and Scale that will be
used by the grid keyboard. Now you can play without
worrying about hitting an o-key note.
If you have a slicer pad selected when you are on the
Keys screen, the keys and grid squares will trigger
dierent slices. The rst slice plays with C2.

Keys Grid Screen

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:

1. Push the HOME button to bring up the Pads screen.
2. Select a pad by touching it or using the control knobs to cycle through the
pads. (The top control knob moves the selection horizontally. The bottom
control knob moves the selection vertically.) The selected pad is highlighted
pink. Touching a pad that is loaded with a WAV le will also trigger playback of
the pad.
3. Push the white right arrow button ► above the screen. If the pad was empty,
the WAV Load and Record screen will be displayed. If the pad already had a
WAV le assigned, the Waveform screen will be displayed.

Screen Waveform Screen WAV File Selection Screen

Note:
► There may be considerable dierences in volume levels of WAV les depending
on how they were originally recorded. Be careful when previewing the WAVs on
the load screen or you could get a rude surprise if you switch between soft and
loud WAV les.
4. If you are on the WAV Load and Record screen, touch Load in the top menu
bar. If you are on the Waveform screen, touch the name of the WAV le at the
top of the screen (A GrainSting in the example). You will now be on the WAV
File Selection screen.
5. From the WAV le selection screen, use the control knobs to scroll through
the list of les. Bitbox micro displays the directories at the top of the list
followed by the individual les in alphabetical order. The selected le or
directory name has a blue highlight. Touch Play to preview the highlighted le.
The Play button will turn blue to show that auto-preview is enabled. Bitbox
micro will play each WAV le once when you pause on it while scrolling. If you
have a CV trigger or a MIDI input trigger playing for this pad, bitbox micro will
play the selected WAV le whenever a trigger is received for this pad. Touch
the Play button again to disable auto-preview mode. Touch Load to assign the
selected WAV le to this pad. When looking at the list of les, list items that
start with a slash \ are directories. Load a directory to see its contents. The le
path is displayed above the list of les (e.g. SoundtrackLoops\SL Bass Mu in
the example above.) Touch the caret ^ to navigate back up the directory tree.
Touch the back arrow to go back to the previous screen.
To View Wave with Start, End, Loop and Slice Points:
Once you have loaded a WAV le, you will be on the
Waveform screen. There are a number of important
features on the Waveform screen. The grid icon in the top
