You already know the answer
the Bitwig Devs are too smart to develop 2 separate modular environments... one is obviously a subset of the other...
You already know the answer
You can already create a fairly close imitation of Ableton's Multiband Dynamics by plopping down a Multiband FX-3 device and then putting one Dynamics device in each container. The general functionality is identical. The only difference is that Ableton's version allows you to set some more extreme values for each "dynamics" device. So for example, it's hard to get the exact sound of OTT out of a Bitwig version, because you can't push the Dynamics devices in Bitwig to the the same extremes.operator wrote: ↑Sat Jan 26, 2019 10:47 am I like it a lot... this will be major fun working with. But like Antic asked a few posts up, I would be curious aswell, If we could change the already present native devices, now or in the future. (if I understood Antic right...) I would love to recreate the Multiband Dynmics from Ableton (wihtout using the MultibandFX). And i would like to create a similar UI (if possible)
I'm much more enthused about it now after seeing it in action than I was when the first announcement came. Overly complicated modular environments that are tedious to work with just don't interest me that much.SLiC wrote: ↑Sat Jan 26, 2019 12:10 pm Some cool stuff in that last video - grid scaling (will be great for 4K and MS Surface etc) and block colour coding.
Some cool quotes from the video-
Q- How big can the grid get
A- Yes!
I also liked that he was unapologetic about making music being 'fun' and that the grid was about the 'workflow' to keep the music playing whilst you tweak and create....From Live clip launching/arranging to now Live sound design!
Yes I know... and IT IS possible to create the exact same Preset. It sounds exactly the same as the OTT (when you closly finetune it with the same values)... I even think the dynamics is a exact replica of the ableton one... because it even had the exact same value-steps at ceratain parameters (ratio for example didn´t stepped in 0.01 values at least at the early days of bitwig [without shift + click]) when i recreated the preset and had Ableton opended side by side, I saw that the Parametrs stepped/rastered at the exact same values in both DAWs... which made the coping much more easier for me...Yokai wrote: ↑Sat Jan 26, 2019 12:26 pm

I'll make the sweeping generalization that most good synth instruments are relatively boring-looking under the covers, and that like 80% of what makes us love one synth over any other synth is the user interface and the type of workflow and visual feedback that the UI provides.

I've seen enough videos now showing their set of oscillator modules and it's too barebones. I can live without a wavetable or sample or granular oscillator (for now), but IMO a noise oscillator is critically important for making modern instrument sounds out of basic analog-wave oscillators. I wish I could see a comprehensive list of their filter types too, because modern instrument sounds also rely on a wide array of interesting filter types.
And we know they have the bones of a wavetable, sample, and granular oscillator already, because they're key elements in the new 2.4 Sampler. So I would imagine it wouldn't be that difficult for them to expose those osc types in The Grid.
The part of that video which caught me off-guard is when Dave said that it’d take up to a month before we got access to the beta. Not surprising, come to think of it. But something made me think that it was really imminent, like right after NAMM.
Fair enough. And that’s pretty much the “comms problem”. What we’re hearing so far is relatively mundane but The Grid is about doing crazy stuff. That’s kind of a contradictory messaging.
That is indeed a pretty sweeping generalization.Yokai wrote: ↑Sat Jan 26, 2019 1:35 pm I'll make the sweeping generalization that most good synth instruments are relatively boring-looking under the covers, and that like 80% of what makes us love one synth over any other synth is the user interface and the type of workflow and visual feedback that the UI provides.
