Hi Guys ! Same here quite happy with my 1010music device.

Did you try the multi sampling on the blackbox  ? 
I have the bitbox micro but I did not test it yet ..

I've just started working with it--there's some synth features I find myself desiring--but setting up loops and recording playing at the speeds that the blackbox allows me to work at makes it feel much more like when it was just me with my lonely MC-505 back in '98.  Everything is instant feedback.
