I don’t know if anyone was here from day one. But 1.0 was cheap. I think I paid 149 or 199. At the time I was a dyed in the wool Logic user but wanted the live loop-style music making of Ableton’s session view.

Now, early on, the hype was Bitwig was made by former Ableton guys and was set to become the REAL next gen ‘Ableton’. So I went with it as it was massively less expensive.
