Bitwig

Bitwig has announced that Bitwig Studio 2 will be released February 28th, 2017. Before public release, they'll be submitting the beta version to a round of rigorous testing - and that phase starts now. Bitwig Studio license holders can apply for a beta license here.

Alongside the announcement of Bitwig Studio 2 they are also introducing a new license model. Starting with the release of Bitwig Studio 2, you'll get 12 months of free upgrades and updates with your purchase. This plan also includes email support. After the 12 months, you can renew your upgrade plan at "an attractive and affordable price". More details at bitwig.com/en/17/new-license-model

Here's what they say about Bitwig Studio 2:

Released back in 2014, Bitwig Studio 1 was the first music production software to combine linear and non-linear sequencing on Windows, macOS and Linux. Combining cutting edge technologies like plug-in crash protection and a highly flexible user interface, alongside a lightning fast workflow experience for keyboard, mouse and touch screens, Bitwig Studio has attracted a large and steadily growing user base all over the world.

While constantly refining and improving version 1, we've been focused on making Bitwig Studio 2 one of the most innovative music creation software solutions available. Today we're proud to announce that we've reached the next big milestone on our journey: Bitwig Studio 2 is very close to completion, and we're excited to share some details with you.

So now we're at version 2 and expected to pay again, and they still haven't added the ability to change time signatures. This is a feature that should literally be available on day 1 for any modern DAW, and people have now been requesting it for three years with no response. I love Bitwig's interface, but god damn I'm going to have to move back to Logic for a lot of projects and probably won't pay for an upgrade until they show me they're interested in actually making a grownup DAW and responding to customer requests.

Yes Yes Yes what are they thinking?

A 4/4 only world is a boring world, and I need to have my live set in one project, so this is the only thing that would convince me to buy Bitwig 2.
