1010music Bitbox MK2 Eurorack Sampling and Recording Module

1010music Bitbox MK2 Eurorack Sampling and Recording Module

The 1010music Bitbox MK2 is a 26 HP Eurorack sampling and recording module built for sample playback, clip launching, slicing, granular processing, and synchronized live looping. Its 3.5-inch touchscreen, 16 configurable pads, microSD streaming, CV control, and MIDI integration provide an intuitive centerpiece for modular sampling workflows.

Musicians can configure each pad for one-shots, multisamples, clips, sliced WAV files, granular textures, or new recordings. Bitbox MK2 plays up to 24 polyphonic notes from internal memory or streams up to eight larger samples directly from microSD storage. Flexible trigger, toggle, and gate launch modes support studio sequencing, improvisation, and performance-focused Eurorack sampler setups.

The module records Eurorack-level stereo or mono audio and supports synchronized, threshold-triggered, fixed-length, and immediate-playback recording. Eight CV modulation inputs, 16 dedicated gate inputs, TRS MIDI, two stereo output pairs, and DC-coupled connections simplify integration with modular systems. Reverb, delay, preset recall, alternate firmware support, and a reversible interface expand its creative and installation flexibility.

Key Features

• Sixteen Configurable Sample Pads: Assign each pad as a sample, multisample, clip, slicer, granular instrument, or new recording.
• Polyphonic Sample Playback: Play up to 24 notes from internal memory or stream up to eight larger samples from microSD storage.
• Integrated Eurorack Recording: Capture stereo or mono sources with synchronized, threshold-triggered, and fixed-length recording options.
• Advanced Sample Manipulation: Adjust pitch, filters, envelopes, looping, slices, grains, launch quantization, and clip synchronization.
• Extensive CV and Gate Control: Modulate sample parameters through eight CV inputs and trigger all 16 pads through dedicated gate inputs.
• Touchscreen Workflow: Select, edit, launch, and organize samples through the module’s 3.5-inch touchscreen interface.
• Flexible Output Routing: Assign pads to two stereo output pairs or use the corresponding outputs as four individual mono channels.
• Alternate Firmware Support: Install compatible FXbox or Synthbox firmware to use the hardware for effects processing or wavetable synthesis.
