Preparing samples for the Bitbox Micro
The Bitbox Micro shares its sample engine and card layout with the Bitbox mk2, so the rules are the same: WAV at 16, 24, or 32-bit, any common rate with 48 kHz preferred, mono or stereo, streamed from a microSD card with no mandatory naming. What changes is the panel, not the file handling.
Because the architecture is shared, a card built for one plays on the other. In SampleStack you use the Bitbox mk2 collection type for the Micro as well: it validates against the same specs, converts what needs converting, and lays out per-pad folders ready to drop onto the card.
