Limitations
The following limitations currently apply to the Woovebox sampler;
- Two banks with 62.4 seconds (for a total of sampling time of 124.8 seconds) each are available. However only one bank may be used in a song. Samples from the other bank will not be available for use in your song.
- Recordings may be any length, however individual sample slices may not be longer than 11.8 seconds.
- Samples recorded through the line-in input are sampled at 44.1KHz with 8-bit with mu-law compression (~12-bit effective dynamic range) as found in the vintage Emu Emulator II sampler. Samples with low harmonic content (e.g. sine waves, synthesized kicks) may exhibit quantization noise due the the dynamic range compression. If this is an issue, consider importing your sample via Wooveconnect. Wooveconnect-imported samples are analysed for their harmonic content, upon which the least lossy encoding scheme is chosen (44.1KHz 8-bit mulaw or 22.05KHz 16-bit).
- Resampled internal sounds (via skip-back recording) are recorded at 22.05KHz 16-bit uncompressed resolution.
- Mixed storage type (for example 44.1KHz 8-bit mu-law mixed with 22.05KHZ 16-bit) slices are allowed, however changing their start and end positions in the master sample will yield invalid audio if these start and end points start including audio encoded in a different format that that of the rest of the slice.

- Sampler & vocoder (under Guides, tutorials and docs)
You can sample via the line input, import samples via Wooveconnect or have the Woovebox resample its own audio.
- Uploading new samples (under Wooveconnect 2)
You may add samples to sample kits, by simply dragging and dropping them into Wooveconnect.
- Restoring songs (under Wooveconnect 2)
Please also note that this restores only the song data and not any sample kits the song may use.
- Setting up a MIDI connection (under Wooveconnect 2)
If using wireless MIDI, Wooveconnect will attempt to automatically detect your Woovebox and attach to the right ports.
- Using Wooveconnect once connected (under Wooveconnect 2)
Uploads are initiated by dragging and dropping .WAV, .AIFF or .SYX files into Wooveconnect.
