You definitely haven't used Reaper then.

Is there much copyright problems uploading to KZfaq?

Tired presentation exposed lol

I’m not making any assumptions but I’m just going to say I’ve never seen ableton and Microsoft excel in the same room

@@Alckemy Oddly enough, I think Excel is AMAZING. I run my life on the thing and I wouldn't accept any substitute :)

Sick, what do you have? I really want to try the analog heat +fx

@@Alckemy Digitakt/Syntakt -> Overbridge-> Octatrack. I have been an Ableton Suite user for a while now and before that I was deep into Reason. I only recently looked into Bitwig and bought Studio that same night. How did I not know about this daw? Its great! And yeah Im interested in the Heat+FX too, but considering that I have the Octatrack Im not sure about it’s place in the setup.

Thank you! Cheers!

I have a ton of videos in my catalog about audio editing in bitwig, just have to go find them:)

@@Alckemy yeah I've already watched the video about comping and saved a bunch to watch later. Amazing stuff!

I’m not mad at it lol

Welcome to the family

Yesss it’s not the only dawg that can do it but I use that religiously

Also the comping is a killer feature for vocalists, being able to construct a mixdown from tons of takes

What midi guitar do you use?

@@Alckemy I use the jamstik

Yes and no. You can chop a sample to multi slice but it is destructive in that it won’t find new samples for you

bitwig have now warpmarker...?🤔🧐

​@@sebbosebbo9794 it has onsets that you can stretch. So yea. It works the same but is a bit different in a few ways. I actually prefer it

I’m not sure what you mean by link tracks tbh… like group them?>

@@Alckemyin ableton it’s called “link tracks” . I think in Cubase it’s called group editing. Let’s say i have to similar audio track that I want to have the same editing, stretching etc. apply for both channels . Like a stereo guitar recording for example.

That would actually be a sick alternative too. Great suggestion!

Yeah I wish it worked like slicex where you have different sensitivities. Or even better a slider that shows in the onsets as adjustments are made in real time

@@ElianaDAngelo That is EXACTLY what I want!

@@ElianaDAngelo YES. Sensitivity. And pleeease finally add this to the Sampler. I miss the transient slicing from Logics Quick Sampler \ Lives Simpler so much

@@RoXx1811 Yeah, same here. Bitwig needs a slicing sampler for sure.

Look up my ableton vs bitwig video:)

Check out Cableguys Timeshaper for that.

You just drag the top of the waveform

No idea tbh lol

I think I understand your question, you’re talking about warping?

@@Alckemy Say I want to record my natural performance, for example if I’m recording acoustic guitar. After I’ve recorded it is it possible to switch it to RAW to preserve the natural fluctuations in tempo and then map each beat or bar line in the audio editor. That way if I use any loops or make any MIDI parts they’ll follow the tempo of my acoustic guitar. I know all the DAWs have this. I believe Ableton calls it warp grid.

@@datooch ah yes, definitely

Unless you’re talking about something different, multitrack out is definitely possible in bitwig, as is multi side chain routing, am I missing something? Other than the offline editing with cubase, what else does it have that makes it stand out? Cubase is definitely known for mixing and mastering but I do think bitwig focuses more on the play side of things

@@Alckemy so multi out routing is possible, but it requires workarounds that are somewhat onerous to implement, and add a bit of clutter in the project window. Drums are a good example. Say I make a beat with a drum machine but I want to add a hi hat loop sample as well. If I wanted to filter the hats all together I'd want to route the loop sample to the same bus as the hats from the drum machine. Since the drum machine sums all the outputs on a single track, I would have to add an audio receiver on another track to split them out independently. Cubase treats each drum machine out as a real track, and I can route the audio anywhere I want without adding anything in the project window, and no duplicating automation that I may have already had on the original hi hat drum machine track. The same concept applies to multi in sidechaining. Bitwig only provides a single sidechain input, so adding additional inputs means more audio receivers and more tracks in the project window and so on. The logical editor is another thing that can make life a lot easier (after getting past a fairly steep learning curve). On top of that, I find that Cubase is more flexible when it comes to slicing and dicing loops and is generally a bit easier to work with because of a few small things like quickly having access to piano roll / audio editor tool selection with a right mouse click menu, and a couple of other minor things that add up to make working in Cubase super fast. But my love is Bitwig. I am way more inspired and motivated to create with Bitwig, and Cubase has been relegated to being more of a tool that use to polish up what I make in Bitwig.

@@captain_crunk oh nah bro there’s a double arrow icon with multi out put compatibility that you can route the outs to without having to add the receivers. Regarding multi side chain just use one tool and then sidechain modulators to duck the volume. I just use a transient split on my kick and snare to send a click as the sidechain to kind of bypass all that anyway I’ll look into the logical editor though!

@@Alckemy I'm aware of the double arrow...the sub tracks are not routable in the same way that they are in Cubase. It's a pretty small thing for sure, but every once in a while having a real track for more complex routing options is necessary, and adding the workarounds can eat up a bit of time depending on the size of the composition. Not a huge deal, but sorta annoying when it happens. And to be fair, if I hadn't seen how Cubase does things I'd be perfectly happy with the workarounds because it is rather unusual and infrequent that I want to do this kind of thing. Sidechaining is the reverse situation. I have some more left field / ambient stuff that isn't really based on a regular drum beat type of trigger, so multi in is really handy in these situations. Of if I want to filter a bus track by multiple instruments in other sections for whatever reason, I have to manually group them on a separate track before I route to the sidechain input in the bus. Not a big deal again, but mildly annoying given I know how easy it is in Cubase. Other than that though, Bitwig is a dream. And I think as Bitwig matures these little things will eventually be added. At that point, in my opinion, Bitwig will be the king of all daws. Right now it's absolutely the king of creativity and is only lacking a few minor convenience things.

Any version I believe. And with 5.0 you can now audio quantize

No clue what they’re up to!

you can apply time stretching, pitching, fades, warping, etc but you can’t apply third party vsts to individual audio events on a single clip. you’d have to pull them out to different tracks

@@Alckemy That's what I thought and there is no tempo mapping either which both S1 is capable of but everything else is better in Bitwig

@@andrewb2700 you can map the tempo timing via inspector or automation of the clip itself

@@Alckemy as far as I know Bitwig tempo automation is only on the master track. When I do Remix in S1 I can match the original tempo of the song to the DAW without stretching the file itself that's what I mean.

Not sure what you mean, this is the clip editor?

@@AlckemySorry, I mean more videos about the clip editor, like stretch, comp-ing and the like.

@@3DaveO ah yes I do. Plenty. “Advanced audio workflow with bitwig” and the clip launcher video still covers clip editing with audio. Also the art of operators covers all the chance and probability functions, etc

Thanks! I’ll go back and look at it to see

@@Alckemy Yeah I wish it worked with audio but I think that slider controls velocity and not gain. I think I have had to bounce in place and then use a fade for that. I don't actually use these features very much though. I work more in the midi realm in BItwig which is amazing with operators as well.

You can just fade the audio event without having to bounce… so a middle ground? Lol

@@Alckemy AHA there you go! I knew there was piece I was missing. I'm sure I have mentioned this before but you should check out the latest update for Samplab. If used the right way it is an insane sound design tool. Kind of like a granular multisampled instrument that divides the samples by velocity layer.

Yeah that fade thing is pretty dang great!

Great question! Freezing means you can’t make anymore changes to sound until it’s bounced. it also has a render time. bouncing leaves everything and is a quick print. you can print it and recycle the effects or bounce to a new track. in Ableton you either bounce the frozen track and lose your effect rack or duplicate the frozen track and bounce one. LSS it’s way more efficient

I see, so basically when using Ableton and freezing MIDI Tracks, you have to "unbounce", it to get back to the rack and change things, where you then have to re-freeze it again to get rid of the CPU Usage? Thanks for the fast reply, most KZfaqrs I ask questions to don't really reply to any thing at all.@@Alckemy

I still have to use ableton sometimes and there’s still some things I like it about it more for sure. Thanks so much for watching!

@@Alckemy Same here, would love the simpler in Bitwig and I miss some of the M4L devices but Bitwig is now the DAW I'm opening most days for sure.

Thankfully every audio function aside from operators is still in tact!

tips hat*

Do you mean scales in the piano roll?

@@Alckemy watch a video about it

They have nothing to do with my channel and are purely based off your searches. 🤷‍♂️ I get them too. And hate it

KZfaq Premium is pure joy to have.
