Oh cool thanks! I wonder what I was doing that was hiding the Tracks? Maybe clips doesn’t have that function? I’ll check when I get back to Bitwig later this evening..

Yes, when you're in clips mode it will only list the tracks where cureently selected clips wereplaced on.

Layered editing mode was turned off, that's what had me confused.

Another hopefully user error but I doubt it issue. Acts like a bug.

Using the Program change device with the HW Instrument for an external synth with 100 patches, Bitwig never sends the change on song load up like it says it can, Auto Send does nothing. The only thing that works is hitting "Send Now" at the start of any song.

Auto-refresh (I think it's that) in the pop-up browsers, like in the wavetable browser for polymer. Every time you click on a wavetable, after ~4 seconds the wavetable disappears for a second. Same with the presets for the devices. :x

Song-follow is deactiving itself under some circumstances! I want this always on/off by hand, not by "circumstances"!

It's actually already improved compared to before, e.g. now it doesn't get disabled when you zoom in. Personally I think it's good now - I hate it in some other DAWs when I scroll the view and it insists on centering around the playhead. Maybe Bitwig isn't perfectly smart in this, but I prefer having to reenable it (I've it under 'F') than to "fight" with my DAW over control of the screen ;)

from what version do you speak???? I have latest 3.3 xy (and i´m happy quiet happy with it- so i can wait for my next 12 month BWS-updateplan until there will be a REAL M1-27-inch-mac (not a funny rainbow collection of old ones) which i can REALLY use (get REALLY more-worth behind the the show) (Apple/OSX will offer a REAL REASON for me.... BWS and its "comp"/fancy-inspector... is not a reason... so far! more-worth since new number.... i´m ok with the "missing features".... since apple will release a REAL M1 imac... not this rainbow-coloered TOY.... so far i´m waiting for my next 12 month.... and its more depending with APPLE, not BWS.... except BWS does not implement a "REAL More-WORTH" like better "readability, faster load, more efficiency for power-users......" ... DONT missget me... BWS is the BEST DAW on the market, but EVEN BWS is lack of so many features/standards/comfort/logic.... its a shame..... in 2021!

3.3.x and 4.0. Playback following was refined sometime in 3.x "era".

I don't understand the rest of your post.

That's true, but I think Bitwig more often than other DAWs steals keyboard focus from VSTs, so perhaps that is creating this impression?
Having Undo/Redo in VST's really would be lovely. As I have mentioned before.

Antic told me to contact Bitwig to request it the last time I brought it up, but sadly due to my health I wasn't able to get round to it.

I know they can do it since they already replicate parameter changes in the chain VST containers when you make them, and they also unify modulations on them.

Given how many VST's we all still use, this would be killer. Bitwig's infinite undo/redo is extremely robust and intuitive as compared with other DAW's imho.

This would be the icing on the cake.

Lots of nits as other people brought up, but meh.

Bravo Bitwig, and congratulations on the release!

Just to add to my last post, w.r.t. undo in VST's maybe a separate undo/redo stack per VST would be nice, maybe as an option, using Ctrl-Shift-Z Ctrl-Shift-Y to specifically reference the currently open VST.

Over and out.

Right-clicking for stereo panning a la Ableton and Logic vs having to load dual pan or tool. Unless I'm missing something.
