Future
Out future plans declared on November were implemented on December! Next…
  • Continue the active outreach with the objective of reaching a critical mass of 410 users.
  • Improve user profiles and the Music category to better connect Bitwish users publishing on Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Spotify, and YouTube.
  • If there is interest, open Bitwish to more languages beyond English.
You can propose and discuss plans on our roadmap.

And this was December on Bitwish. Did we forget to mention anything? What can we do better in January? Share your feedback!

Yours truly,

Seems like, with the way audio is edited in Bitwig, that if chopping and editing audio in the Sampler were added, it would automatically include time stretching.

Only 3 of the top 10 really matter to me.

I am surprised nobody added a feature request for Groove tools/templates.
I would also rather have tempo mapping than most of the top requests.

There was a request about Grove Pool (is this what you mean?) but it is sitting in the archive because nobody volunteered to complete the draft. It had at least 6 votes. If you (or anyone) are interested in drafting it, we can take it back.

Groove: Swing + Shuffle and a Groove Pool is my top 1
Would be great if someone would finish a draft for that. :clap:

I just hope that if they do add time stretching in sampler, it's not like Ableton Simpler where it works like a clip and is meant for loops. Hopefully it's a proper stretch that let's you change the duration as well as maintaining the duration at different pitches.

I havent signed up but I would say midi comping, timestretch in sampler and global parameter snapshots (they sort of started this with the fill stuff but not far enough).

I’m working two jobs atm and cant even make music since a while :cry:

The main one for me would be number 4. Basically, if they could mimic Reason's Mimic sampler functionality, then I wouldn't have any need to upgrade to R12.
