Booting up
![Under normal conditions, after a short boot sequence, your Woovebox will drop you in 'Song' mode.](https://d2kvhj8ixnchwb.cloudfront.net/woovebox-prod-kfsrescdn/support/guides--tutorials/getting-started/booting-up/57c5dc2c-690b-4b66-9ea4-3fd0b7f5734b.jpg.5e64e3cbd5929c541aaa230dd285885d)
Switch on your Woovebox without touching the write or play touch buttons (as their sensitivity is calibrated during power-on). A short wake-up sequence follows.
The length of the full boot sequence may vary depending on the amount of housekeeping your device needs to do, but should be in the range of ~2 seconds for normal operation. Boot-up after a firmware update/reset may take longer. In longer cases (up to 2 minutes), the letters "W O O V E B O X" will scroll past until the device is done.
A number of special boot modes are available by holding special 1-16 key combinations during power-on; please see "boot modes".
