Tree Monster

Tree Monster is nice for snare synthesis! Turn claps into neuro funk snares.

Quantize Bitwig Modulation to Intervals, Notes & Scales

In Bitwig you probaly wanted to quantize modulations to certain intervals, here are two ways of doing this and some practical examples!

Smart Micro edits

Learn how to sequence audio fx for making drumloops more fun and interesting. Beat repeater with delay+, adding reverb tails only to parts of audio signals and bringing in filter sweeps without using automation.

Note Sidechain - Bitwig Modulator Guide

Modulate things with the an note triggered envelope.

Cool Quantify - Bitwig Project

So this is the project for the recent jam. There are some grids in there, also a preset from the Ambient Tools package. The project is relative small because everything is kinda generated on the fly. 

The difference to the ...

Cool Quantify

this is basically just 8 bar loop with LOADS of randomizations and grid patches that generate new percussions and glitches. too lazy for the arrangement.

Sampler Stretching In Sync - Bitwig Sampling Guide

New playlist on the channel for small practical tips & tricks about sampling in Bitwig. In this video it´s about stretching loops and syncing them to the project tempo.

Origami Blues - improv

another improvisation in the blade runner universe. I'm currently having a lot of fun just recording little pieces like this and uploading them to youtube. Maybe I'll make a tutorial out of it, but basically there's not much to tell.

I've had a few people ask me why I don't release on spotify or bandcamp. but somehow it...

Street Lights - improv

I took my guitar preset and a few reverbs for a walk. Of course, everything sounds like Blade Runner again. Unfortunately it's not mixed at all, just recorded purely in obs while I tweaked the synths a bit.

Comb Guitar

This preset is based about my "Karplus Poly" video and tries to emulate a  real acoustic guitar with physicial modeling and impulse responses.

In the video I show how it sounds, how to tweak and with what devices to combine. I cant play guitar or keyboard well, so im sure you yield better results.

Markov Improv

I used the markov presets from earlier, 

• fed the output notes into a multi-note (minor chord)->note-wrap->keyfilter to generate some chords with the polysynth
• the bass note is on ch16 and is routed to another channel...

Markov Chains in the Bitwig Grid

Thanks Boro for asking me this. At least it led to a nice video! In this patch you can decide based on probabilities what step to choose next. An the result is the new input step. A nice markov feedback loop for creating melodies or sequences.
