The steps you can follow.
Find a sound, then refine it
Vocal, guitar and bass presets give you a starting point. Try tone, pan, compression, reverb, delay, chorus, phaser or tremolo to make it your own.
Put a beat behind it
Build drums or a click track. Estimate a steady tempo from recorded guitar and bass, or tap in the speed yourself and adjust by ear.

BEFORE YOU PLUG IN
A few useful answers.
Do I need recording experience?
No experience is required to start. The demo, presets and illustrated manual help you explore one step at a time. Getting a good recording still means choosing the right input and sensible levels.
Can I use my Spark PEDAL?
The board includes a Spark USB audio finder and MIDI controls. Spark PEDAL recording uses Input 1. Windows needs Positive Grid’s driver; MIDI needs a separate USB-to-MIDI connection. Hardware compatibility still needs testing on your computer.
Can it really record for an hour?
The limit is one hour per take. Long takes depend on available computer memory. Keep the board open and save after each take. The cutoff and song format passed code checks; a full-length browser recording remains untested.
Can I install Positive Grid plugins inside this board?
This browser board and its online Windows launcher use built-in effects. They do not host desktop VST3 plugins. A native plugin host would be a separate desktop development step.
Where does my music go?
Mixing and recording happen in your browser. Save Song downloads an editable .bandera file. Download Mix makes a WAV. Keep your own files; local recovery can be limited by storage and is paused for large songs.
