Synthesis: The selected sound parameters and effects settings
for the selected drum instrument can be edited here.
In the following, the sections of BeatBox 2 will be discussed
individually:
Drum kit
This section loads drum kits (collections of
different drum instruments) and the
individual drum instruments. You can also
try out an already programmed pattern with
different kits or exchange individual drum
instruments.
Select drum kit: Use the <> buttons to switch through the
different drum kits. A drum kit is a collection of percussion
instruments with matching sounds, e.g. rock kit or electronic
drums à la TR 808. By changing the drum kit, you can add an
entirely different sound to the rhythm you have already created.
Save drum kit: Use this button to save the current collection of
drum instruments as a kit.
Drum kit list: Click on the arrow right of the name to open a
complete list of available drum kits.
Select drum kit: The arrow buttons function analogously to those
of the drum kit. The sequence of drum instruments in the kit can
be resorted via drag & drop.
Mute/Solo: The "solo" button switches a drum instrument solo,
i.e. all other instruments which are not "solo" will be muted. The
"mute" button mutes a drum instrument.
New drum or effect sounds can by added to the current drum kit by
drag & drop from Windows Explorer. Drag a wave file to a drum
instrument to create a new drum sound based on this sample.
BeatBox 2 copies the sample into the sample folder to make sure
that the instrument or kit created can be used again later. You can
drag a complete folder with wave files to the drum kit to create a kit
based on those samples.
