Oh man, we are talking devices here because Bitwig's workflow is all about devices, hence the device mockup... Of course there are several ways of implement something like this, but a device seems the easiest one..

Just a friendly reminder that not everyone uses Bitwig the way you do. And the workflow is not "all" about devices. There are a lot of people in the world who create music outside of the program and simply want to record and edit it. Bitwig was also designed to cater to them.

On that note...

1-5. Multiple time signature support

Geist2(2 because it can delete notes with right mouse button not as the first version) its MIDI out + Drum Machine of BWS is better than FL

Geist... Cant live without it! My "little" workhorse inside bitwig! Absolutly a versatile piece of software.

There is one feature I dream about.

I wish there was a shortcut or button in instrument layer that gives me possibility to tweak certain parameter in all layers at once.

Lets say I have 5 polysynths inside instrument layer and when I tweak filter cutoff in one of them it automatically gets tweaked in other 4.

Assigning macro controls or clicking right mouse button to copy value to other layers is not ergonomic solution.

+1 I dream about this for drummachine pads.
(i know, rightclick,.. do this for ALL pads. But would be nice to select a bunch and only affects those

)

Geist looks good for sure (never used it though) and feature wise it seems great, BUT by the look of it, it doesn't seem as fast as the FL step seq, and for me speed is everything in music production.. Just like the right click delete that is missing in Bitwig, without it Bitwig is a no go...

Different strokes. I can't stand the UI on the FL step sequencer. Sonar's is much better. You've polled everyone who's tried the Sonar step sequencer?

my feature request is:

BITWIG 2 GUI for BITWIG 1 too

Proper Transport automation:
Time Signature
Tempo that actually changes the tempo (and doesnt revert when you stop playback - problematic if you forget to manually change tempo before bouncing audio)

Has destructive delete in the browser been fixed? That was a nasty surprise (deleted beyond even the trashcan. No backup = gone forever)

I would love the facility to set track level in dummy clips in session view.
Because I have a whole album of backing tracks for playing live, and want to work in session view.
Currently setting track levels on a scene with dummy clips just gets reset on the next scene launch (unless I have missed something obvious about how to do this)

Once again, Time Signature automation

Working on a live set containing several songs designed to flow continuously?
Indian and African rhythms?
We need this!

Spread the word!
I dont know who to thank anymore ,.. but yes same here. Cant live without it anymore! Also check the pro version. Select portions of sample and drag to DAW. And in future auto tagging. Cant advertise this thing enough.

About the step sequencer... I bet bitwig will have this in a year or 2?
Im not that intrested in it, but i cant imagine they wont implent it.
I guess they want all the "basic" stuff in it first and there CV/hardware stuff implented spot on and tight on clock.
I cant imagine they would let this pass by with these features implented specially CV stuff. I guess with hardware modulair stuff owners its a dream to have step sequencer. And i think they also wanna have it in. Fingers crossed for those who cant wait.
