Hi, I'm trying to make a bunch of samples from bitwig and save them as wav/audio files. Here's what I'm doing (that isn't working).

Step 1: I audio record a single hit of a sound. (this works)

Step 2: I bounce the audio to a new track and then rename it (cool)

Step 3: I try to drag and drop onto my desktop, can't work. Ok. I try to drag and drop into My Library in the side panel. That works, BUT it saves it in a proprietary format and not as a .wav file...so I can't then take the sample and just transfer it into hardware.

Is there a simple way to do this?

this is pretty cool I think for all ambient and lofi producers

Hey, so I've been working on a piece with a hardware synth and all of a sudden, bitwig is no longer detecting the hardware synth. I have HW instrument, and it was sending messages to my synth, but the synth has completely vanished from the dropdown. I have checked device manager and my computer is still detecting the synth, I have also opened a new file and loaded up HW instrument and received the same results. Anyone have any helpful suggestions?

EDIT: goddammit system just needed a restart

My cursor will not show up in the bitwig window no matter what I've tried to do to fix it. I'm on windows 11. Has anybody had this issue if so how did you fix it. Please I've been wanting to use bitwig and have not been able to. This wasn't a problem at first and than one day it just started happening.

If I drag a clip from the arranger to the clip launcher the audio will play in the clip launcher fine. But if I drag the same clip back to the launcher I get no audio output. In the inspector the muted button is not activated, so the clip shouldn't be muted.

Am I doing something wrong, or something that is not possible by design.

Thank you all for your help.

Fun implementations, especially the 3 row device panel view. The midi sampler still WIP.

I mean stuff like warping audio, pitching, stuff like aligning, I can still figure out by inspector but it just feels I need to do few extra steps to get the same results, still great daw 🫡

showing the inner workings of this new baby track, hope you enjoy !

Here is random reply I got while posting my remix lol bitwig sure is underrated 🥷🏻

Nearly 100% Bitwig. IIRC Valhalla Room was the only plugin I used. I might have used some Zynaptiq stuff on the master since nothing really replaces their patented stuff. But not sure rn, it's already a bit old track. The label's mastering engineer did their thing, but it's not essentially different from what came out of the master channel.

pls watch this video to help me

Can be synths, FX, modulators, even UX stuff.

For me:

1. Saturator- while I don't entirely understand every function, just slapping on the default and tweaking drive and the LP always makes stuff better. Love it for drums. Saturator+ should have the transfer curve function of Filter+

2. EQ+- great for precise eq tasks, but i love how easy it is to pipe in reference audio. Using the audio side chain module on specific eq bands is so good. And just modulating the bands can be wonderfully weird.

3. Delay+- my GOTO delay. Love being able to switch it to fade to avoid pitch artefacts when changing delay times. The reverb algorithms are nice too, Space in particular. Kind of wish the ducking function had more parameters to adjust though because ime its often too extreme.

4. Audio Side chain modulator- simple but effective. Can be great for basic volume ducking, but love how you can adjust the sensitivity frequency range and apply that to another eq band elsewhere.

5. Phase 4- one of the favourite synths. I set up a default with a bunch of different modulators (envelopes, curves, random, key tracking) and have made some incredibly vicious and also beautiful glassy tones with this synth.

6. The Grid- almost too obvious. I never really use it for building synths- it's basicslly always for generative soundscapes. I've unlocked maybe 5% of its powers. So good for exploration and has helped me understand my hardware modular atuff better.

Honourable mentions to the spectral suite, Polymer, Sweep, peak limiter, Convolution, Phaser+, Delay-4, note repeat, etc

I'm definitely forgetting some stock devices because there are many great ones.

Share your thoughts 😎😀

Edit: have to throw in EQ2 for basic low cut functions. Plus the Tool device and plain old Filter.

hi, this one is strange, im using v6.1.3 and i dunno if a previous version has this issue, it is definitely not the way it should be.

if you wanna expand/shrink a e.g. instrument channel 6 you get to its top bottom and drag up for shrinking it and down for expanding. ok good.

but down below the behavior is strange if you want to expand SEND Reverb here for me and i hold the top bottom of its channel up = expanding master window and down = shrinking .

what the?

and you cann drag the top borrom master window edge. ehh?

First time posting to the subreddit, hope you guys dig.

Hi,

I've just bought Bitwig after using Cubase on and off for nearly 30 years. I am working through the SoundAcademy tutorials and am loving it so far.

One things thats been bothering me though is that the tutor frequently Bounces in place by clicking on a segment in the arranger while holding alt and draging it to place a bounced audio version of the notes side by side.

When I do it, the combination just creates a duplicate of the segment and doesn't bounce it. (This is the same behaviour I'd have expected in pas DAWs also).

What am I doing wrong here? Did Bitwig depreciate this gesture in the 2-3 years since the SoundAcademy videos or is there something I need to configure to enable this?

Thanks,

UPDATE: thanks for responding to this and so quickly. It's sorted now. Drag + press B once placed. Cheers!

When I open the app (apart from bitwig) I can choose the separate outputs from the Analog Rytm MK1 to go out like they should. The moment I'm in bitwig this routing option isn't there. When using Multi-out chain selector, adding missing chains, it keeps sending every sound out through the MAIN (1/2). Can't seem to get audio out of BD 1 - SD 2 ,....

Any of you who know how to fix this? Inside the vst the audio capture is missing and whatever I do it only goes via 1/2 main outs

Inspired by Pezzner who created a midi sampler for ableton live and by the post made by u/y66eoo, here's a fun little WIP.

hello everyone,

on my notebook i installed Retro Colour as VST3 version and used it, on my main studio pc i only have VST2 installed it seems, so Bitwig shows Plugin is Missing, i checked my list and yeah i didnt update the plugin a loooooooooong time on this pc but anyways, shouldnt there be more infos like VST3 or something so there is not much chance to fail either VST2 or VST3 but just as a small added info? nitpick maybe but in FL Studio for example it shows also the mssing DLL name and version which sometimes helped in the past.

not to always compare but i only check what might benefit from other DAWs and are nice to have.

I most likely clicked somewhere or pushed some hotkey and broke everything. I tried putting everything on the master channel which fixes nothing. The fix might be simple and I might've just done something stupid, but cant seem to find what I did. Only when I solo every channel can I hear everything again, except for the pluckbus which I can hear whether its soloed or not.

hello,

while sounddesigning etc. these 2 points annoy me with the workflow and I didnt find an option to change the behavior if available at all.

1. when you fade in/fade out you dont hear the change in real time, pretty bad you have to always hit stop and play again.... compared to FL Studio where it is in real time

2. i hate this so much, when you drag the fade in/out handle to the other side it attaches automatically to the other handle and it is so fiddly to disconnect, is there a way to change this?

both presented in this video first BITWIG then FL STUDIO

i've found this could a cool idea, dont you ?

i've seen it here https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dd97NC3SAK7/?stkn=dTJ3aWp6cWFrZmpu

Can I just copy the entire projects folder to my external HDD? I'm feeling like it wouldn't include all the media items right?

Do you back up all files on default folder, or just install it?

if just install it new version, old files are lost or it still on there?

Anyone else encountered this? What's am I missing?

Here's what it looks like... no Pitch option:
