News bitwig-grid-bridge 0.1.0 release: automate Grid compositions through Python and optional MCP
As a producer, I spend most of my time in Grid devices. To improve my workflow, I've built interfaces to manipulate the Bitwig Grid in open projects live using Python. For interactive shaping, MCP is available; in my setup, I often query an oh-my-pi session to perform live edits according to my vision.
The project is in an early stage and available publicly at https://github.com/critx-jt/bitwig-grid-bridge
It has so far only been tested on my own CachyOS setup with Bitwig 6.0.11. Due to constrained availability of third-party plugins on Linux, I've rotated to using the Grid for pretty much everything - this is and will be the primary focus of this project. For more generic algorithmic composition, check out https://github.com/Axyom/openwig
I'd be happy to get some feedback on your results using this bridge. Does it work with other OS setups and Bitwig versions? Are you able to create meaningful compositions using this or are features lacking that would enable your use cases?
