  • Sorry for the late reply.

    It depends on the day. I really like synthesizers but I do like to bounce and resample whatever I'm doing over and over. And recently I like throwing the result in Amigo and or sometimes just a break, and modulate from there.

    I should post more. Skip through this.

    Bitwig as a DAW is itself a modular synth, so I can get lost in that pretty easily. Here's a recent bounce.

    Its all pretty directionless lol but it makes great material for chopping.

    warning sign of things to come?

  • Bitwig Studio! Made from former Ableton devs so it's similar but the workflow is amazing for modulation and sound design. Plus Linux support. Not free but you can rent-to-own via splice (you do not need an active splice sounds sub).

    Edit: oh and it can also sandbox your plugins (either individually, by company, or all together) so having a vst crash doesn't bring down your whole project.

    untitled #???/??? | few months old but still gets stuck in my head

    I keep thinking I should come back to this (if I can).

    Thoughts?

    I bounced a track with incorrect parameters accidentally but I kinda liked the result

    never. stop. resampling.

    Once again I've bounced out a project I was working on in Bitwig, chopped it up in Koala, and resampled it to hell.

    quick breakcore-esque fun

    YT Shorts link — I know, I know, but I could use the engagement 🥂

    Having some fun manipulating breaks (as usual)

  • The mod strip on the Keystep is very nice and I'm not sure I could go back to a mod wheel tbh. That's an interesting technique I'll have to try. What I love about bitwig is how it's built on small tools and everyone will come up with their unique way of applying them. I've been hooked on Amigo Sampler since it launched (very reasonably priced) and still come up with new ideas and how to build upon previihs ones. New Amigo update made the root key modulatable so I've been having fun with that.

  • It's hard to name one, basically just experimenting with the various modulation modules. For example recently I played around with the Select-4 one (low quality rec) to make stretch and phase adjustments at varying degrees.

    Have you played around with the modulators at all? Or have any other general questions?

  • I had a similar experience. I could finally access things by luckily I went mostly secondhand or software based. Still, GAS is very real and we all must reach our breaking point.

    MIDI and the surface level tech aspects were a good overlap of interest as well. But I still think there's some more for me to learn there. Especially with midi sync.
