Smallest Arp, Clip, Sweep Note Grids, Pitch Buss - Bitwig 5.1 (Patreon)

Hey everyone, welcome back to another video where we dive deep into Bitwig Studio's beta version. I've got some cool discoveries and tips to share with you today.

Key Points:

Smallest Arpeggiator Patch in Node Grid

• We look into Bitwig's Node Grid and explore the simplest arpeggiator you can build using just four modules.
• It works in polyphonic mode with 12 voices, and it's crucial to press keys in sequence for optimal sound.

Clock Divider & Voice System

• We manipulate the clock divider to create different rhythms based on the keys pressed.
• This is all thanks to Bitwig's polyphonic mode and its voice system, which assigns a voice number to each key you press.

New Out Module Features

• There's a new 'level' feature in the out module that allows you to control clipping.
• You can set the clipping level from +6dB over 0dB down to 0dB, allowing for more precise output.

Sweep Device & Polyphonic Mode

• I talked about using the Sweep device in polyphonic mode, which allows multiple voices.
• You can even use the Note Grid to generate or modify notes instead of using a keyboard or note clips.

Pitch Bus Module

• A new module called Pitch Bus works like an attenuator but in semitones rather than percentage.
• It allows for playing around with note intervals in a more musical way.

Note Manipulation

• The Pitch Bus can be used to easily manipulate and create note grids or sequences in Bitwig, allowing for complex and nuanced compositions.

So, lots of cool stuff to unpack here, especially if you're into tweaking and exploring Bitwig Studio to its fullest potential. Whether you're interested in creating complex arpeggiators or simply want to understand the new features in the latest update, this video has got you covered. Keep experimenting and catch you in the next one!
