Playbox allows creators to layer a variety of samples, from synths, instruments, bass, voices, and noise, to each note in a chord, for provocative combinations of multi-stacked sounds. Users can also import up to 450 of their own samples, that are automatically re-pitched to the notes of a chord.
Playbox:
» A unique combination of handcrafted chords and multidimensional sound design
» Over 200 chord sets give instant harmonic ideas that can be randomized and tweaked
» Start and finish tracks with over 900 stunning samples, or load in sounds from any library
From beatmakers to composers, and everyone in between, Playbox offers a huge variety of creative possibilities, with a wide spectrum of sounds straight out of the box. Just starting a track? Roll the dice and let Playbox deliver captivating sounds, inspiring chord sets, and happy accidents. Feeling more adventurous? Play in custom chords, breathe life into old samples, and shape your sounds using the onboard effects.
Playbox comes packed with bespoke harmonies that are playable with just one finger, which means you don’t need in-depth knowledge of music theory to create your own chord patterns. Explore over 200 included chord sets and then tweak individual notes as much as you like. You can also import MIDI files straight in, or play in your own chords using the piano mode. And once you’ve found the perfect progression, all chords generated by Playbox can be exported and used for any instrument in your DAW.
Get hands-on with a range of effects, in one easy-to-use interface. Experiment with the XY pad, for simple sound design, or roll the dice to discover a world of presets. Dive deeper with Arp, Strum, and Grain effects to add rhythm and texture, and dial in over 50 Ambience samples including sounds of forests, busy stations, and vinyl crackle. Choose from up to 14 high-grade effects, and experiment with the order of these in your processing chain for unique results. Dial in depth and feeling with humanized velocity and timing controls, plus a range of assignable modulation sources to make your sounds move.
