After the successful launch of Bitwig Studio 2.1 in May and a short summer break, we are back to proudly announce our next update: Bitwig Studio 2.2.
Bitwig Studio offers a number of ways to integrate with other technology: MIDI, MIDI Clock Master/Slave, MTC, CV & Gate and hardware audio clock; Ableton Link is the latest addition to this versatile feature set.
Link enables musicians to play in sync together across various software applications, platforms and mobile devices. Bitwig Studio 2.2 will support Ableton’s Link technology out of the box, allowing users to connect multiple instances of Bitwig Studio via network connection (Wi-Fi and Ethernet), and to a vast range of music software such as Ableton Live, Reason, NI Traktor, NI Maschine and Serato DJ, as well as a growing number of iOS and Android apps.
This device allows for fine-grained time adjustments anywhere in your device chain, useful for getting things in time or as a creative tool in the mixing process.
Bitwig Studio 2.2 comes with four new modulator devices. Three of them are designed to transform other modulation signals in numerous exiting ways, and with the Audio Rate modulator you can do true audio rate frequency modulation.
This input panel is now available on more display profiles. It’s a handy way to play notes directly on screen, using touch screen or mouse. It allows for multidimensional polyphonic expression (or MPE) input and doubles as a visualization of note playback.
Connect a touch screen to your existing setup and enjoy the best of both worlds: excellent touch input optimization on one screen, and full feature view on the other.
Alongside the Bitwig Studio 2.2 launch we're proud to announce a major sound content update. We're adding 3+ GB of multi-sampled instruments and presets. Rare organs and piano will make keyboardists and lovers of harmony and melody happy, plus we’re including legendary 606 drum machine sounds sampled by our friends at Radium. This sound content update is free for all Bitwig Studio license holders with an active upgrade plan.
We just started Beta testing for Bitwig Studio 2.2, and aim to release the final version in October 2017. As of today the Bitwig Studio 2.2 Beta is available for all Bitwig Studio 2 license holders.
Upon launch, Bitwig Studio 2.2 will be available as a free update for all Bitwig Studio 2 license holders with an active upgrade plan.
A free demo version will be ready to try once Bitwig Studio 2.2 is released at www.bitwig.com.
