The Grid is awesome, wow, but are there tutorials which explain the modules?

[Caine123]

hey all, so im still learning bitwig and yeah i shouldnt start with the grid now but i couldnt resist and checked some grid patches and ufff i guess this is too high for me, still i would love to understand what modules i need to generate sounds/which input triggers i can use and how the flow works.

e.g. a simple sine wave play with maybe a delay

then checking how to add multiple oscs and then maybe have a melody played randomly.

do you know some good tutorials? thx

One would assume there was info in the RTFM. Start there.
But some of those things are kinda complex and require understanding of other things before their sense becomes apparent.

So as you noted, while it seems uber-attractive, you might just be digging a deeper hole if you try to build nuclear weaponry before you can make a paper chain of people (with safety scissors of course lol).

Yes there are Tuts, but again if you don't understand the basics from using the stock 'analog' synth it will be making stress where you should be making music - thereby priming yourself for Grid when you are better prepared.

There are lots of tutorials. As far as the extreme basics of the grid though, I don't have a specific recommendation for you. What I can tell you, is that Polarity is an absolute legend when it comes to the grid: Oh, FFS this thing won't let me post a link to his channel without thinking it's a video.

He also runs a discord I believe.

There are tutorials about the tutorials

thanks to all of you guys, yeah i was seeing some layout(?) on Polarity's channel and I dont want to say just seeing this "oh too much, i give up" but i think you have to have some kind of this logic (in a good way), like programming, something i couldnt get deep into the topic as I couldnt imagine what i do there and Grid looks like that if you wanna get complex. though I see many have a big block with all elements i did recreate some small elements and think to start to understand on a basic level, then I dont put them in one block but copy pase a functioning "grid" and test the copied one out with new parameters, then it makes more fun . ok I might not understand/have the logic like Polarity but basic level seems to be not that hard, getting into generative ambience for example is out of my box i guess lol. this is just crazy then.

i just read a comment about Generative workflow with the clip launcher, this is of course different but more understandable for me so far. thought the randomness is not as predictable as in GRID.
i was watching some hours yesterday various youtube videos better than netflix!

but oh wow, i think my renewal of Bitwig's license is worth alone for the grid...
