Premiere running! Finally managed to drop a new Drum & Bass Mix. It's got lots of minimal wobbles, a few liquid vocal tunes, some deep stuff, and minimal neurofunk. I'm really enjoying it right now – as long as it grooves, it's all good. Here's the full tracklist with timestamps!
In this video, I explain how to use phase cancellation to create delta signals and filter specific frequencies in Bitwig Studio, inspired by a powerful Ableton Rack. I show how to set up the technique using E...

Update: I changed some of the default settings and inner ratio correlations, so it matches more with the OTT VST at 50% depth, 100% up/down, 100% time and 0 in and out gain. It doesnt sound exactly the same, but it comes close.

In this video, I walk through using Bitwig's Node Grid to create random notes for the Polymer synthesizer without using a MIDI keyboard. Instead, I use various modules within the Grid to generate, scale, and quantize these notes, ultimately producing a more musical and controlled sequence.
This video explains how to use the Berikai Bitwig theme editor to customize the color themes of Bitwig Studio. This tool is unofficial and may violate terms of service, so use it at your own risk.
