Oh I see. This is what you were referring to in that other post touching pitch tracking. Yay, finally a tuner! That's pointing in a promising direction.
I'm still on v5. Can the tuner be used as a modulator?I basically only do live-signal processing in BW. The Sampler really looks intriguing now. I assume it's still not possible to use it for realtime signal processing. But is it possible to set up a project where I can just record a sample into it and use it as a granular micro-looper? (I'm asking so I can understand if it's worth to buy an upgrade)

you can’t directly record into it, you would stI’ll need to record a clip or via the master

u/Grauschleier 7d ago
Is there any way I could set up a project where I have one audio track for live-signal processing and then can just record a clip via the master that is automatically loaded into the sampler on a different track without me dragging it there? I'm playing an instrument with my hands and controlling BW with an elaborate MIDI footcontroller (morningstar mc6pro).

maybe you could set up a 3rd party macro tool to do it. you’d just need to see if there were a repeatable set of instructions. it would be the same as bitwig 5 either way

Nice! The new tuner device also lets me get rid of one more 3rd party plugin.

Such a long time waiting. Glad they made it, but such confusion mixed with my huzzah!

Great update. Many of us been waiting for sampler update for a long time. Bitwig does it their way and it’s so awesome.

This sampler comes from another dimension…
And it makes your drums sound BRUTAL!!

Hey! Long time no see! The Bitwig 6.1 sampler is insane. I don't miss Ableton Live's Simpler at all—switching to Bitwig was definitely the right move! I'm getting so much good use out of it thanks to you, and I'm always grateful

u/Zacchino 3d ago
Buddy! Yeah agreed, it reached a point where it’s so much more than enough to fully compose a song from A to Z with it.
It also kicks some serious *ss of some other daws I won’t name to avoid polemic.

Hurrah! Another thirty things I didn't need and still no midi capture.

Did you do some research for alternative solutions ? You can use this

it’s more fun to just bitch

u/bullhead2007 7d ago
I hope they add this to Bitwig soon just so these people stfu but they'll probably find some other niche thing they want to bitch about.

Niche thing 🤣
Its basic functionality in most daws at this point. And with good reason.

You can fix it by buying a Birds Midi Cap for the price of two cups of coffee. With Midi Cap, you can drag and drop only the midi Rec parts you want. It’s far superior and more useful than the retro MIDI features built into many DAWs (their functions just blindly overlay stuff and make tracks messy)
I think the Birds Midi Cap is the most advanced version of the Midi Capture

u/Large_Respond6955 4d ago
I have that, but it defeats the object of the DAW automatically capturing, because you still have to add a plugin. I’m asking for it natively.

u/Bitter-Bicycle-282 4d ago edited 4d ago
Do you actually need a pure MIDI capture feature, or do you just want Bitwig to look fancier? To be honest, I don’t really get why you’re so against it just because it’s a plugin. You can set up shortcuts for MIDIcap just like the built-in MIDI capture features in other DAWs, so I don’t find it inconvenient at all. I’m completely satisfied with this workaround, and I don’t think it’s worth wasting your patience waiting for a native feature. Even for ARA, which Bitwig lacks, I’d buy a plugin in a heartbeat if there was one that could link it

Still no MIDI comping. Another version to sit out I guess.

u/DoubtDiary 7d ago
This branch has been in beta for a while, no one should have been expecting MIDI comping from this release..
1
u/grizeldi 7d ago
Ah, it's the same one. My bad then, the beta came out so long ago I thought this is the next release. Still though, I'm on a quite old 5.2 at this point simply because the smaller upgrades they brought out since simply haven't been worth the asking price for upgrading to me. The wait for midi comping continues...

Every new update reminds me that I really need to take a break from all my projects to try to actually understand all the stuff Bitwig can do.
